All these people work in accordance with the values of the company, most notably: a focus on the client, proactivity, excellence and team work. Moreover, the company complies with its responsibility in terms of strengthening the sector and, consequently, works to dignify its activity by helping society to understand, value and appreciate the role of private security professionals.

It also invests in the development of its employees, facilitating internal promotion and recognition and rewarding them for excellence in the performance of their work.

Health and safety Prosegur conducts its business in line with the industry’s legislative and voluntary standards in matters of health and safety at work, and it invests in specific training and in advances to ensure that its employees are working in a safe environment, with the best equipment and the most up-to-date technological developments. The company channels its efforts to ensure the health and safety of its employees by means of three primary areas of action: training, monitoring and technological innovation. Furthermore, it has placed special attention on achieving a global focus on the management in issues relating to security and health through procedures of mandatory compliance in all countries.

The target of “zero accidents” continues to be one of the most important points of focus for the organisation. In 2017, the number of fatalities per 10,000 employees fell by 41%, which would be a total of 0.41 victims. Equality, diversity and social benefits Diversity forms an intrinsic part of the Prosegur spirit, particularly in relation to its workforce. This diversity is most evident in terms of cultural background, gender and roles, and has a positive impact on the organisation and in its competitive advantages. The company encourages equal treatment and respect among employees and ensures that nobody is subjected to employment or occupation discrimination. It does not permit any kind of physical, sexual, psychological or verbal harassment or abuse. Nor does the company employ anyone who is not of legal age. Likewise, the company respects working hours and schedules and facilitates the balance necessary between employees’ working life and personal life.
