About Us
Securitas serves a wide range of customers in a variety of industries and customer segments. Our protective services, developed together with our customers, are designed to incorporate a high degree of technology content. While manned guarding still represents the cornerstone of Securitas, we continuously work to develop our offering. This enables us to meet customer specific demands at a competitive price.
Our Values are the Foundation of Our Operations
Our values are the foundation of our operations and the corporate culture is built on these values that help to shape a long-term, financially successful enterprise by creating value for customers, employees and shareholders. They are summarized in three words: Integrity, Vigilance and Helpfulness.
The main purpose of our corporate culture is to develop competent, specialized employees and qualified professionals, whose role is to make society safer for everyone. Securitas' success is ultimately measured by the trust we earn in our communities.
Integrity
A Securitas employee is honest and therefore trusted to work unsupervised on the customer's premises and with valuables. Securitas never compromises in its demand for integrity. Integrity also includes openly expressing one's opinion, reporting improprieties and not withholding information.
Vigilance
Professionalism entails seeing, hearing and evaluating, and a Securitas employee is always attentive. Professionals develop an intuition that helps us to notice things that others don't. Their vigilance is needed in order to stay aware of potential risks or incidents that are taking place on our customers' premises.
Helpfulness
Helpfulness is about our employees always being ready to assist within the context of a particular assignment.
Our History
In the beginning of the 1900’s, private security companies became increasingly common. The services that these companies offered were primarily keeping watch for fires and guarding entrances and gates. Today, security solutions are designed to meet specialized customer demands and the industry is led by a few international focused security companies – among them Securitas.
