      Our purpose

      We help make your world a safer place. This has been our purpose since 1934, and though much has changed over the years, our basic beliefs remain unwavering.

      Our people are committed to help make your world a safer place

      Since our humble beginnings back in 1934, we have evolved into one of the world's leading and most technologically advanced intelligent security companies.

       

      Threats to our safety are increasing and becoming more complex. Yet, our purpose to help our clients make their world a safer place is stronger, and more important, than ever.

       

      Our extensive security experience gives us a unique perspective to see a different world - a safer world, filled with opportunity and progress. Today, we proudly stand guard to protect what really matters, the safety and wellfare of people and property all over the world, because we're determined to make it a safer place.

      Our values

      Symbolized by the three red dots in our logo, our values - Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness - have guided our attitude and every decision we make for over 90 years.

      Integrity

      Integrity means being honest and doing the right thing. We never compromise on our integrity, ethics, or truthfulness.

      Vigilance

      Vigilance means paying attention, taking initiative, and always looking for ways to improve.

      Helpfulness

      Helpfulness means being approachable, service-oriented, and going the extra mile for our clients and colleagues.

      Our purpose embraces the expertise and diversity of our people and unites us under one fundamental goal to help make your world a safer place. Our dedication to this purpose resonates throughout the entire company, from our leaders to our front line employees and everyone in support roles. Because we know that together we’re stronger.

      Celebrating those who live our purpose

      Each year, our colleagues nominate individuals who live and breathe our purpose - demonstrating it in both their actions and attitude. Established in 2019, the Securitas Purpose Awards recognize and reward these colleagues for their commitment to making the world a safer place.
