“We are deeply honored to be recognized as one of the most trustworthy companies in the country,” said Steve Jones, global chairman and CEO of Allied Universal. “We are committed to earning and maintaining the trust of our employees, customers, and the communities we help protect every day.”
Jones emphasized that Allied Universal’s success stems from a culture grounded in integrity, respect, and professional development.

“At Allied Universal, we foster a culture of integrity, respect, and growth, ensuring our team members feel valued, our customers receive exceptional service, and our investors have confidence in our vision and leadership,” he said.
Trust as a Strategic Priority in Security and Facilities Management
Allied Universal’s core business—protecting people, property, and assets—requires an exceptionally high level of reliability. With operations across the U.S. and around the globe, the company serves industries such as commercial real estate, healthcare, education, retail, manufacturing, and government.
Its ability to consistently provide dependable, tailored security solutions relies heavily on the trust it builds internally and externally. This recent recognition from Newsweek reinforces the importance of Allied Universal’s people-first, mission-driven approach.
For a company with over 800,000 employees worldwide, being ranked in the top five among America’s most trusted companies is a testament to its leadership’s long-term vision and the day-to-day commitment of its security professionals.
What This Means for the Industry
As demand continues to rise for skilled, professional security services across all sectors, trust remains one of the most important differentiators. Clients want to partner with companies that not only deliver results but also reflect values they can align with.
For Allied Universal, this award signals to current and potential customers that they are working with a company whose leadership prioritizes ethical practices, transparency, and accountability. It also reinforces its reputation as an employer of choice in an increasingly competitive labor market.
In the words of CEO Steve Jones, “Being trustworthy isn’t just about what we do—it’s about who we are.”
