GlobeNewswire
TULSA, Okla., Oct. 17, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matrix Service Company (Nasdaq: MTRX), a leading contractor to the energy and industrial markets across North America, today released its Fiscal 2022 Sustainability Report.
“We are pleased to have issued our second Sustainability Report to share our strategy, commitment, and progress toward contributing to a more sustainable, resilient world,” said Matrix Service Company President and Chief Executive Officer, John R. Hewitt. “In addition to a focus on ESG within our own organization, we are proud to support our clients by providing infrastructure solutions that support their own sustainability objectives.”
The theme of this year’s Report — Transforming the Future — reflects the Company’s own organizational transformation as well as the changing make-up of the projects entrusted to Matrix, including infrastructure for vital transition fuels such as LNG and natural gas, as well as hydrogen and renewables, the electrification of everything, and metals and rare earth minerals used in battery storage and other critical applications.
Key highlights include:
ESG governance strengthened with inclusion of recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) in addition to the previously adopted Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) framework
Metrics for Scope 1 and 2 Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions with calculation of GHG emissions intensity based on revenue
Company increases overall diversity of independent board members to 43% and launches Employee Resource Groups with Executive Sponsor support
Reports on other key areas including Safety, Health, and Well-Being; Training and Development; and Community
The report also provides more robust information about the Company’s ESG governance and climate strategy and provides information on other key areas including ethics and compliance; quality, safety, and well-being; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and community involvement.
“Sustainability is foundational to our purpose and rooted in our core values. As we continue our sustainability journey, we believe our commitment to all areas of ESG will elevate and support our position as a contractor of choice to the energy and industrial markets, and as an employer of choice for our current and future employees,” said Hewitt.
Reporting Standards and Framework
Consistency and transparency are critical for ESG planning and, as such, beginning with the 2021 Sustainability Report, Matrix has adopted the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) reporting standards and included a SASB reference table that details where the information set forth by SASB for the construction and engineering sector can be found in our public reporting. In fiscal 2022, the Company also began reporting under the Financial Stability Board’s Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) recommendations.
By following SASB and TCFD, the Company strives to identify, disclose, and communicate sustainability information considered to be materially important to all stakeholders, and believe information reported under these frameworks will result in more consistent, comparable, and meaningful reporting.
