Corporate Responsibility Policy
APPLICABLE TO ESC GLOBAL SECURITY AND ALL EMPLOYEES AND SUBSIDIARIES
Corporate Responsibility Policies
The way we do business is led by a set of policies that reflect our beliefs and apply to all employees and those working with ESC Global Security. The principles set out in our corporate social responsibility policies provide a common approach to our work and provide practical guidance for managers and employees. By committing to sustainability, social and environmental stewardship, human rights, health and safety, we seek to benefit our clients and strengthen the communities we operate in and work with.
Corporate Responsibility Policy Statement
We have a firm commitment to support the communities in which we live and work and we see this as critical to our long-term success. We recognize that sustainable growth comes from operating with absolute integrity and in a way that respects our shareholders, clients, employees, communities and the environment.
Sustainability
We aim to minimise the usage of natural resources, and thereby supporting long-term ecological balance:
- ESC has an almost paper free office as part of our drive to reduce waste and lessen any environmental impact
Corporate social responsibility
- Together with
the Estonian police, fire and rescue departments, as well as other national law
enforcement authorities, ESC Global Security has developed a summer campaign to
enable less fortunate children in our community to engage in specialist
activities in an environment that nurtures, protects and engages young minds
and bodies
- We provide
employment and training for ex-military personnel to help them return to the
labour market and become part of society once again
- ESC Global Security is partnered with the UN World Food Program providing protection to UN aid vessels which we see as a priority in helping many of the world’s less fortunate communities. In 2015, as part of this commitment, we provided protection for the first UN aid ship to arrive in war-torn Yemen
Charity
ESC Global Security believes
in supporting local charitable bodies and each year we support those particularly
associated with children.
- We have donated
to Carolin Illenzeer fund, which is an organisation supporting the children of
the members of the Estonian Defence Forces who have been killed or severely
injured in the line of duty.
- In 2015 we made a conscious decision not to distribute gifts but to make a donation to the Estonian Association of the Parents of Children with Cancer (EAPCC) charity to bring relief and joy to those families going through difficult times.

Security works only with those subcontractors, who follow international and local human rights
