Securitas AB was recognized as one of the top climate leaders among the 200 largest suppliers to the U.S. government.
The U.S. government has introduced a new federal supplier climate scorecard designed to highlight organizations that excel in climate action. Securitas is reportedly one of only 40 suppliers to meet all four climate action benchmarks set by this initiative. Securitas said this recognition reflects the company’s unwavering commitment to sustainability and underscores the proactive steps Securitas is taking to mitigate its climate impact and drive meaningful progress.
“As the world’s second largest commercial electronic security company, we take our leadership role in seeing a different world seriously, and this is just the start of our journey,” said Tony Byerly, global president and CEO, Securitas Technology. “This recognition is a key milestone in our sustainability journey to innovate solutions that serve to protect our clients and the environment alike.”
In December 2023, Securitas had its climate targets validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). According to Securitas, this validation confirms the company’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 42 percent by 2030, in line with the Paris Agreement’s target of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C. Securitas Technology unveiled its Sustainability Initiative at this year’s Global Security Exchange (GSX).
“Achieving a more sustainable future requires collective action, and sustainability is increasingly at the forefront of our clients’ priorities,” said Byerly. “We are proud to step out and lead the industry to be more environmentally responsible, alongside our committed technology partners who have provided essential data for this important endeavor.”
