  • We achieved a 10% reduction in our incident rate making 2020 our best safety year on record.
  • Minorities represent over a third of our full-time, permanent employee base.

Governance

  • Callon seeks to operate our business responsibly, ethically and in a manner aligned with the interests of our shareholders. We are committed to effective and sustainable corporate governance, which we believe strengthens accountability, promotes the long-term interests of our shareholders and helps build public trust in our Company.
  • Our commitment to high ethical standards is set forth in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which includes an anonymous reporting Helpline and a non-retaliation policy.
  • Our Board has established - and annually revisits - sound corporate governance policies that provide the framework under which we fulfill our responsibilities to shareholders.
  • We value diversity of thought and experience in the board room, and Callon has assembled a Board that brings a variety of perspectives and skills to best represent the interest of shareholders. Two women and one minority serve as Callon directors. In addition, ten of 11 of our board directors are independent, and our board committees are comprised of entirely independent directors.
