SAN FRANCISCO, April 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — iRhythm Technologies, Inc.<\/a> (NASDAQ:IRTC), a leading digital health company focused on creating trusted solutions that detect, predict, and prevent disease, today released its 2022 Environmental, Social, and Governance (\u201cESG\u201d) Report highlighting the company\u2019s continued commitment to delivering long-term sustainable growth by operating in a purposeful and responsible manner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very proud to release this year\u2019s ESG Report, which reflects our elevated focus on embedding ESG initiatives into our business. It emphasizes our belief that these are key drivers for advancing our mission,\u201d said Quentin Blackford, iRhythm\u2019s President and CEO. \u201cSince our founding, we have dedicated ourselves to providing innovative services that positively impact the world, as we believe this purpose-driven mindset both supports our commercial success and enables us to better serve our employees, customers, communities, environment, and investors. This year\u2019s report lays the groundwork for our ESG strategy over the next three years, and we remain committed to incorporating these policies and initiatives into our business as a key driver of value creation for our shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Throughout 2022, iRhythm took several important actions to advance its ESG program. With dedicated executive leadership to oversee the program put in place in early 2022, iRhythm engaged a third-party expert to conduct an ESG Priority Assessment to identify the ESG topics that are most relevant to the company and its stakeholders. The ESG Priority Assessment leveraged leading sustainability reporting standards and frameworks, including the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (\u201cSASB\u201d), the Global Reporting Initiative and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures. In addition, a cross-functional management-level ESG Steering Committee and multiple ESG working groups were formed to tactically drive ESG projects and processes. Furthermore, in 2023, the company established formal board oversight of ESG by revising the charters of two of its board committees to include ESG oversight.<\/p>\n
