Responsible ESG Framework
At Actuated Medical, our team and process has always followed Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles. Therefore, we have established a formal ESG framework to ensure that our leadership and team members employ ESG into their decision-making processes and in our operations. The key elements that we employ are summarized below:
Environmental Stewardship
Energy Efficiency
We strive to improve energy efficiency by upgrading our facilities where possible to reduce consumption and our environmental impact.
Waste Reduction
We incorporate lean practices and prioritize the reuse of materials to maximize efficiency and minimize waste in our operations. By streamlining processes and reducing excess, we not only enhance productivity but also significantly decrease our environmental impact. These waste reduction activities are integral to our ESG framework, demonstrating our commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable business practices that benefit both our company and the communities we serve.
Social Responsibility
Employee Health and Safety
Our team is the backbone of what we do. As such, employee health and safety are fundamental components of our ESG framework, reflecting our commitment to social responsibility. Our dedicated safety committee ensures that all personnel receive thorough training and access to the necessary resources for maintaining a safe work environment. By prioritizing safety protocols, continuous education, and proactive risk management, we foster a culture of well-being that protects our employees while enhancing operational efficiency and aligning with our broader sustainability goals.
Community Engagement
We strive to engage with and improve our community by collaborating with local schools through internship programs, volunteering at local science camps, and supporting civic participation by offering time off for employees to work election polls.
Governance and Ethics
Corporate Governance Excellence
We maintain corporate governance excellence by ensuring ethical leadership and sound decision making across the organization. This is overseen by a diverse board of directors with expertise in MedTech, finance, medicine, and business growth. Additionally, we have developed and adhere to our Business Code of Conduct and Ethics to ensure that Actuated is being run in the most ethical way possible. Actuated certifies its adherence to the AdvaMed Code of Ethics, which provides industry-wide benchmarks on ethical interactions and relationships with health care professionals.
