Our Values
“The Foundation of Our Company”
Our core values—trust, commitment, love, thinking, empowerment, and results—define who we are. They serve to guide us in how we approach our business, our people, and our clients. Our success is based on striving to be the best in the contract security business, serving our clients and our people better and with more measurable results than any other company in the industry.
Our core values form the basis of our partnerships with our clients and with our people.
Respect Every Employee
True competitive advantage lies not in products, processes, or technology but in people. We provide financial and career growth opportunities for our employees in a work environment that values employees’ wellness and well-being, diversity, participation, and individuality.
We don’t only sign contracts; we solidify relationships. We don’t hire guards. We select qualified and spirited individuals who have a propensity to deliver passionate customer service and who demonstrate high personal and professional standards. Our company seeks to develop long-term strategic partnerships with our clients that are aligned with shareholders. This orientation to build long-term relationships extends to our people as well as our customers.
Employee Selection
“Our People are Our Company”
There is a distinct difference between hiring and selecting. You select people to help build your company. All candidates with GQ must undergo a comprehensive and multi-tiered evaluation process to assess their desires and abilities in meeting the requirements of our clients.
This process includes a detailed employment application, assessment interviews, background investigations, and pre-assignment training to help further evaluate the candidate’s suitability.
GQ chooses to select qualified, service-oriented individuals who possess GQ’s core values and have the ability and desire to:
“Serve Those We Protect, So That We May Better Protect Those We Serve”
GQ has well-established procedures for recruiting some of the finest security officers in the area. A majority of our officers are former military and law enforcement personnel. All individuals are licensed and screened by one or more of the local security guard licensing authorities. We take great pride in our low turnover rate. This achievement is the result of fair and equitable treatment of officers with regards to promotions and discipline and our excellent benefits program. We are proud to have in place an approved drug abuse testing program to ensure a drug-free workplace.
GQ is proud to value diversity in the workplace. We seek to select and retain qualified employees without regard to race, gender, age, religion, or national origin.

Mountain Bike Patrol
This is a patrol in which uniformed guards patrol a contract site via mountain bike. This is an effective method in having the element of surprise. Mountain bikes are quiet and can be operated on any site. This also allows the guards access to patrol areas that are inaccessible by a vehicle.
Vehicle Patrols
This is a patrol by a marked patrol vehicle that is a great visual deterrent for deterring crime. These patrols are suitable for any site: small, large, or multiple-site contract. Marked patrols allow a guard on patrol to be more visible while enabling them to cover more ground.
