WAYNE, Pa., Aug. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX), today announced the publication of its 2nd annual Global JOIN Impact Report. The report outlines the progress the company made in 2019 in the areas of people, environmental sustainability with a focus on pollination, and business programs through its JOIN Act with Purpose initiative. JOIN is Teleflexs unique way of approaching responsibility powered by its employees.

I continue to be inspired by the dedication of our employees to act responsibly for the good of our communities, our environment, and those in need. 2019 was no exception, said Liam Kelly, Chairman, President and CEO. Our actions across all of Teleflex, including the medical devices we produce, are carried out in support of our Core Values and mission. We also continue to make an impact through the work of The Teleflex Foundation and our Humanitarian Donations Program.

The theme of Planting with Purpose was used across Teleflexs sites to engage and educate employees about the critical role pollinators play in a sustainable planet. Through volunteering events, employees learned the importance of acting now to improve our conservational efforts and take the necessary steps to ensure we protect our eco-system.
