“Our industry leading connected worker technology protects people in hazardous environments and generates data-driven safety and operational insights that enhance the ESG performance of our customers around the world. We share this focus of creating sustainable workplaces that offer adaptability, resiliency, and most importantly, support worker confidence to get their jobs done safely,” said Cody Slater, Chief Executive Officer and Chair at Blackline Safety.

“I am proud of the achievements Blackline accomplished in fiscal 2022. We’ve made solid progress towards our ambitious ESG targets and effectively executed on our business amidst a challenging macroeconomic environment. This operating environment required us to re-evaluate some of our ESG initiatives, including our greenhouse gas reduction commitment and timeline to net-zero, in order for us to deliver for our customers. Looking ahead, we remain focused on our ESG goals and we continue to evaluate the most effective pathway to achieve them over time.”
