The goal of the tear sheet is to provide an overview of the Company’s recent performance and set a baseline for assessing future progress.

The tear sheet provides disclosure in accordance with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (“SASB”) standards for the Medical Equipment and Supplies sector.

The priorities documented in the tear sheet include environmental issues such as energy and waste management. Social priorities documented include product safety and quality, ethical marketing practices and supply chain management, as well as workforce diversity, employee health and safety, employee training, development and engagement and pay equity. Governance priorities documented include Board diversity and oversight, data privacy and security and employee and supplier business ethics.

“At this early stage in our ESG journey, we know how important it is to assess and understand where we are in order to measure progress and achieve the goals we have communicated,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “These efforts will positively impact our employees, our physician customers and their patients, enhance our care of the environment and continue our commitment to operating our business with the highest level of ethics and responsibility.”
