INDUSTRY SPECIFIC
Comites Solutions believes that the lawful, professional and ethical delivery of security services supports the respect of individual rights, whilst supporting the delivery of public security for the benefit of whole communities. As a global security company, we recognise that there are some human rights that are especially salient in the sector in which we operate.
These include: rights to life, liberty, security, due process, privacy, property, freedom of movement, freedom of expression, and asylum; as well as international standards around the use of force and the international humanitarian law.
The International Code of Conduct for Private Security Providers and the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights are important standards for Comites Solutions, which have been embedded into the relevant parts of our businesses.
