TransAct Technologies' Restaurant Solutions segment offers products like the BOHA! Platform and Ithaca 9700 food safety terminal, which aim to improve food safety by printing expiration labels, monitoring equipment, ensuring consistent operational tasks, and facilitating compliance with temperature checks and employee hygiene.
1
These efforts are designed to reduce foodborne illnesses, which were responsible for over 9,300 cases in US restaurants in 2016.
2
The BOHA! system also digitizes data points for instant visibility and compliance,

and generates reminders for tasks like replacing expired products.

However, the company also operates a Gaming & Lottery segment, for which no health impact (positive or negative) is described in the provided articles. Without a clear breakdown of the company's overall product portfolio or revenue share between these segments, it is not possible to determine the net health effect of the firm's principal goods or services beyond a neutral score. Similarly, there is no evidence of revenue from products with direct negative health outcomes, nor any data on the safety record of TransAct's products themselves.
Fair Money & Economic Opportunity
-10
TransAct Technologies Incorporated (TACT.US) primarily provides transaction-based and specialty printers and related products to businesses in various industries, including banking, gaming, and retail. Its core business does not involve directly lending, insuring, moving, or storing money for consumers, which means many KPIs related to consumer financial services are not applicable. For data accessibility, the company provides its Proxy Statement and Annual Report in HTML and XBRL formats, and these are available for download from 2000 to 2024.
1
This aligns with providing fully PSD2/open-banking compliant APIs with no access charges, which maps to a score of -30. Regarding financial literacy, the company's Transact Campus Commerce platform hosted an event where Daymond John emphasized the critical role of financial literacy for students, professionals, and institutions.
2
However, this is an external speaker's emphasis at an event, not an explicit financial literacy program offered or run by TACT.US for its customers. Therefore, this KPI is scored as 0, as the company is not in financial services and does not offer financial education programs.
Fair Pay & Worker Respect
20
The company's employee recommendation rate is 80%, indicating a high level of employee satisfaction and engagement.
1
The overall employee rating is 3.8 out of 5 stars.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing
0
No specific, quantifiable evidence was found across the provided articles to score any of the KPIs for Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing. While the company addresses conflict minerals in its supply chain, including compliance with SEC rules and alignment with industry practices, the information provided does not include the necessary quantitative data points such as percentage of spend on fair-trade certified inputs, average audit frequency, number of substantiated forced or child labor incidents, percentage of suppliers with traceable provenance data, median remediation speed, percentage of contracts with enforceable ethical clauses, share of spend on high-risk materials, or percentage of procurement budget directed to diverse suppliers.

Honest & Fair Business
0
No specific, concrete data points were found in the provided articles to assess TransAct Technologies Incorporated against the defined KPIs for Honest & Fair Business. The regulatory fines mentioned in the articles pertain to a financial firm named "Transact" or "Integrated Financial Arrangements," which is distinct from TransAct Technologies Incorporated, a manufacturer of printers.
1
While an anti-corruption policy and a whistleblower policy are stated to exist,
2
no details on their strength, enforcement, or specific features are provided to map them to the rubric's quantitative tiers.
Kind to Animals
0
TransAct Technologies Incorporated's business model focuses on transaction-based and specialty printers and related software, which inherently does not involve animal-derived products, animal testing, animal agriculture, or direct impact on wildlife habitats. Multiple articles from crueltyfreeinvesting.org explicitly state that the company has "No Animal Exploitation."
1
Other articles from transactcampus.com and theclimatepledge.com, while discussing general corporate social responsibility and environmental sustainability, explicitly state that no data is available for any animal welfare-related KPIs, confirming the absence of such activities within the company's scope.
2
Therefore, all KPIs related to animal welfare, testing, and sourcing are assessed as N/A, indicating that these activities are not applicable to the company's core business.
No War, No Weapons
0
No evidence available to assess TransAct Technologies Incorporated on No War, No Weapons.
Planet-Friendly Business
0
No specific, quantifiable data points were found in the provided articles to assess TransAct Technologies Incorporated against the Planet-Friendly Business KPIs. Information regarding net-zero targets, renewable energy usage, or environmental compliance violations was either a forward-looking pledge, related to a partner company (AWS), or an absence of reported issues rather than explicit evidence of zero violations. Without concrete, company-specific, and achieved data, no KPIs can be scored according to the rubric's strict evidence requirements.
Respect for Cultures & Communities
0
No specific, concrete evidence was found in the provided articles to assess TransAct Technologies Incorporated (TACT.US) against any of the KPIs for the 'Respect for Cultures & Communities' ethical value. The articles discuss general CSR initiatives, employee diversity, and environmental efforts, but lack quantitative data or specific actions related to community partnerships, cultural preservation, local employment, or grievance mechanisms for community concerns.

Zero Waste & Sustainable Products
0
No specific, quantitative data points were found in the provided articles for any of the Zero Waste & Sustainable Products KPIs for TransAct Technologies Incorporated (TACT.US). While Transact Campus, a segment of TACT.US, has partnered with Reusables.com and USEFULL to implement reusable container systems and has replaced plastic student ID cards, the articles do not provide the necessary percentage reductions, coverage, or other quantitative metrics required by the rubric for TACT.US's overall operations or its core products.
1
For instance, the reported replacement of 53 miles of plastic ID cards is an absolute amount, not a percentage reduction from a baseline, and the 99% return rate refers to reusable containers in a partnership, not the coverage of TACT.US's own products by a take-back program.
