Our purpose unites us

Securitas was founded in 1934 and much has changed since. Yet our basic beliefs remain unchanged. As in the past, everything we do today is based on our strong values – Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness – which have helped us ensure global business success for decades.


"Our purpose answers the question why. Why does Securitas exist? Why do we get up in the morning and – with pride – put on the uniform? Our purpose influences how we shape our strategy and how we behave. Our purpose unites us. Our purpose comes down to who we are and what we want to achieve," says Magnus Ahlqvist, President and CEO of Securitas AB.


Safety is a basic premise for all of us to enjoy life with friends and family and to do well when we are at work. The threats to our safety are ever increasing and becoming more and more complex. Therefore, our commitment at Securitas to helping our clients make their world a safer place is more important than ever.

 

 

Our foundation

We began working toward a safer world in 1934, and though much has changed over the years, our basic beliefs remain unwavering. Symbolized by the three red dots in our logo, everything we do individually and collectively is based on three strong values – Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness, which have helped guide us over eighty years. Click here for more information about our values.
