Core Values, Corporate Social Responsibility & The CRS Foundation:

At CRS six core values underpin everything we do; how we work, who we employ and how we interact with clients are all guided by the same principles and are the foundation on which the company is built.

CORE VALUES:

  1. INTEGRITY - Adherence to moral and ethical principles, both at a corporate and personal level

  2. TEAM - One team sharing the same goals and objectives; working well together

  3. HEART - Able to demonsrate spirit, resolution and courage in everything we do

  4. INNOVATION - Converting knowledge, experience and ideas into real benefits

  5. EMPATHY - Listening and understanding to others feelings, attitudes and concerns and acting accordingly

  6. PROFESSIONALISM - Demanding of the highest standards, never settling for second best and committed to setting the standard by which others are measured

These core values are also the driving force behind our Corporate Social Responsibility; why we actively support the Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East [FRRME], and are currently in the process of establishing the CRS Foundation, which aims to support humanitarian projects in every country in which we operate.

 

The Montreux document

CRS is pleased to confirm that it welcomes and abides by the principles set out in the “Montreux Document on Pertinent International Legal Obligations and Good Practices for States related to Operations of Private Military and Security Companies during Armed Conflict"
Whilst the Montreux Document reaffirms the obligation on States to ensure that private military and security companies operating in armed conflicts comply with international humanitarian and human rights law, CRS have been actively working to the same guiding principles since its formation over six years ago.

The document is the product of an initiative launched cooperatively by the Swiss government and the International Committee of the Red Cross. It was developed with the participation of governmental experts from Afghanistan, Angola, Australia, Austria, Canada, China, France, Germany, Iraq, Poland, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, and the United States, in meetings convened in January and November 2006, November 2007, and April and September 2008. Representatives of civil society and of the private military and security industry were consulted.
