Global Executive Search specialists within Physical and Cyber Security Sectors.Securitas UK has once again met the rigorous standards set by the Top Employers Institute, making the organisation a Top Employer in 2023. As in previous years, Securitas UK boasts it is the only company within its industry field to achieve this accreditation.
“Top Employer is an important exercise that assesses the quality of our people management and HR strategies” explains Sarah Hayes, Human Resources Director, Securitas UK. “We’re committed to being an outstanding employer and Top Employer supports that by confirming we’re using the most up to date best practices and initiatives. Top Employer helps us be aware of, and prepare for, what lies ahead. This accreditation also demonstrates to our existing and future employees that we are serious about developing and delivering a rewarding career pathway for security professionals.”
The Top Employers Institute programme survey covers six key aspects of HR. The array of topics examined includes People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Wellbeing, and Diversity & Inclusion. This year Securitas made considerable gains in its scores for Diversity & Inclusion, a reflection of the fact that in 2021 the company launched four diversity and inclusiveness networks for Disability, Women, Race and LGBTQ+ respectively. Each network creates a safe place for its members to share experiences and get support and provides valuable insight and information to the wider company.
“We’re determined to recruit and retain the best talent in the UK security services industry and 2023 will see us continue to invest in our people to help them achieve their ambitions,” says Hayes, “We will also continue to support the development of our diverse communities within Securitas, ensuring everyone feels that they belong and can be their true selves.”
