Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) – Guaranteed Security

At Guaranteed Security, we believe that providing outstanding security services goes hand-in-hand with acting responsibly toward our people, clients, communities, and the environment. As one of the UK’s leading security providers — headquartered in London and operating nationwide — we are committed to conducting business ethically, supporting human rights, protecting the environment, and creating a positive impact wherever we work.

Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy outlines the values and commitments that guide every aspect of our operations.

Our CSR Commitment

We define Corporate Social Responsibility as the integration of ethical, social, and environmental considerations into all areas of our business. In practice, this means:

  • Conducting business in a socially responsible and ethical manner
  • Protecting the environment and the safety of people we work with and protect
  • Supporting and respecting human rights in all operations and supply chains
  • Engaging with local communities and cultures with respect and openness
  • Creating long-term value for our stakeholders by operating responsibly and transparently

CSR is not an add-on to our security services — it’s embedded in how we operate, manage risks, and build relationships with clients, suppliers, and partners.

Responsibility & Governance

  • Our Board of Directors provides overall oversight and ensures CSR principles are integrated into strategy and governance.
  • Managers and supervisors act as role models, embedding CSR considerations into day-to-day decisions and operational planning.
  • All employees are expected to uphold CSR commitments in their daily work and to report any concerns or breaches.
  • Dedicated Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) and HR leads monitor CSR performance and support continuous improvement.

Key Focus Areas

1. Business Ethics & Transparency

We maintain the highest standards of integrity and corporate governance to promote trust and confidence among our clients, employees, and partners.

  • Operate openly, honestly, and ethically in every engagement
  • Protect our human, financial, physical, informational, social, and reputational assets
  • Maintain robust Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) policies, communicated to all employees
  • Uphold anti-bribery and anti-corruption standards in all business dealings

2. Stakeholder Engagement

We communicate clearly, honestly, and respectfully with all stakeholders:

  • Timely and meaningful dialogue with clients, employees, shareholders, suppliers, regulators, and local communities
  • Transparent reporting on CSR and sustainability efforts where requested by clients and partners
  • Collaborative relationships that seek mutual benefit and long-term trust

  • Preventing discrimination, intimidation, bullying, and harassment
  • Supporting professional growth through training, mentoring, and career development

4. Human Rights & Modern Slavery

Guaranteed Security recognises the responsibility to respect and promote human rights.

  • We do not tolerate human rights abuses in any form
  • We comply with the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 and publish an annual Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement
  • We assess supply chains and partners to minimise the risk of forced labour, trafficking, or exploitative practices
  • We respect the cultures, customs, and values of individuals and communities where we operate

5. Environmental Responsibility

Our Environmental Policy complements this CSR strategy by focusing on:

  • Reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions in our fleet and operations
  • Encouraging the use of low-impact technologies such as solar-powered CCTV towers
  • Preventing pollution, managing waste responsibly, and minimising environmental disruption on client sites
  • Raising environmental awareness across our workforce and supply chain

6. Community Investment & Social Impact

We aim to have a positive impact on local communities by:

  • Supporting community initiatives and local capacity building where we operate
  • Creating opportunities for local employment and skills development
  • Working collaboratively with clients to deliver safe, socially responsible security solutions
  • Promoting volunteering and charitable support among our teams where possible

Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking Statement

In line with the Modern Slavery Act 2015, Guaranteed Security is committed to eliminating slavery and human trafficking in all areas of our business and supply chain.

Our Modern Slavery Statement outlines the actions we take to:

  • Assess and mitigate the risk of modern slavery in our procurement and contracting processes
  • Train staff to identify and respond to potential human rights risks
  • Monitor and review supplier compliance with ethical and legal obligations
  • Act swiftly where breaches are identified

How We Deliver CSR in Practice

  • Policy Integration: All major policies — including Health & Safety, Environmental Management, and Equal Opportunities — align with our CSR goals.
  • Staff Training: Induction and ongoing training embed ethical conduct, diversity awareness, and sustainability.
  • Supply Chain Standards: Vendors and contractors are expected to adhere to our Code of Conduct and CSR principles.
  • Performance Monitoring: We track CSR metrics (diversity, energy use, community engagement, compliance audits) to guide improvement.
  • Transparent Communication: CSR progress is shared with clients, auditors, and stakeholders when requested.

Our Ongoing Commitment

We recognise that corporate responsibility evolves with society’s expectations, legislation, and industry best practice. Guaranteed Security is committed to:

  • Regularly reviewing and updating this CSR policy
  • Benchmarking performance against UK security sector standards
  • Encouraging a culture of accountability, transparency, and respect
  • Working with clients, partners, and communities to deliver safe and sustainable security services
