Compact Security Services, a leading name in the UK’s security industry, is proud to announce being honoured with the prestigious Investors in People Standard Award. This accomplishment is a testament to the company’s unyielding commitment to excellence in managing and developing its workforce.

The Investors in People (IIP) Standard Award recognises organisations that achieve the highest standards in people management, leadership, and development. By earning this accolade, Compact Security Services joins a select group of companies that have demonstrated a forward-thinking approach to business practices and employee engagement.

Why is the Investors in People Standard Award Significant?

Achieving the IIP Standard Award is not only a mark of prestige but also an indicator of an organisation’s dedication to its workforce. It underscores the investment Compact Security Services makes in their greatest asset: their people. As a security service provider, Compact Security has consistently shown that the welfare and development of its employees are central to its operational philosophy. 

The company has proven its robust commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility, particularly within the event security sector. Notably, through initiatives such as the Afforestation Initiative and the Gift a Tree partnership, Compact Security has planted a tree for every shift worked during the festival season, positively impacting carbon sequestration with 8,936 trees planted to date.

What This Award Demonstrates about Compact Security

Compact Security Services is more than just a security provider. It is an organisation that values its community and environment. With accreditations in ISO standards for quality, environmental management, and occupational health and safety, the firm has established itself as a leader in the industry. The company’s work with local charities like Forever Manchester and initiatives supporting the Armed Forces Covenant reflect its comprehensive approach to corporate responsibility.

The accolade also aligns with Compact Security’s record of service reliability, having supplied security and crowd management solutions to major UK festivals and events while maintaining an Approved Contractor status, annually ranking within the top 10% of companies in the UK.

In receiving the Investors in People Standard Award, Compact Security Services reaffirms its position as an industry innovator and trailblazer, where employee welfare and professional development are intrinsic to the company’s ethos. This award not only celebrates the company’s past achievements but more importantly, sets the stage for its future endeavours.
