A Message from the President
As we head into the final weeks of
the year, I am reminded who G4S
is, the people who work for us and
how we operate.
Two G4S Officers Honored
for Assisting Homeless Man
As you read this, teams of G4S
officers, supervisors and managers
are busy assisting our clients
who are trying to recover in the
aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
The logistics of moving additional
teams into a recovery zone are
difficult, but in true G4S fashion, we
are going the extra mile to meet
the challenge.
I am proud of the work our teams are doing and their commitment
to our customers and our communities in the natural disaster.
In fact, when I look at our company and the wonderful work we have
done from all the lives saved by our officers — to our successful
engagements at the U.S. Olympic trials in Oregon, the Republican
National Convention and the Democratic National Convention; from
our extraordinary community involvement across the U.S. — to the
young people we help educate and refocus — to the employment
effort focused on veterans and their families — I am constantly
reminded that we are an extraordinary company.
As you read through this issue, please note the launch of our new
G4S Career Center. The new website: www.usajobs.g4s.com is a
one-stop location for anyone to apply for career opportunities
anywhere and anytime. It’s the place to go if you are currently
employed by G4S and interested in making a career move or if you
are a friend or family member interested in a G4S job opportunity.
(L to R) G4S Operations Manager Larry Gutierrez; G4S Officer Lizzette Zazueta;
G4S Officer Cesar Carbajal and Karon Villaverde, Technicolor.
Los Angeles, CA: G4S officers Lizzette Zazueta and Cesar Carbajal are being
honored by Technicolor for assisting an injured homeless man who was attacked
with an incendiary device outside company offices. The two officers heard a
loud bang and saw smoke outside the building. They called 911 and remained
calm under pressure while assisting the injured man, police and paramedics.
Salem/Hope Creek Officers Reach
1 Million+ Hours without Safety Incident
If you are new to G4S as an employee or a customer, you can get
a sense of who we are by reading about our G4S All Stars pages
2-3, and our Everyday Heroes on pages 10-11. These are but a few
of the outstanding heroes that make G4S proud.
The pride comes through on page 5, with the introduction of Harry
Jackson who joins our Portland team after an illustrious career in
the police department there.
With our outstanding emergency responses on page 7, and special
event capabilities on page 6, you can see why veterans are so
effective and sought after by G4S.
I think we all wear G4S somewhere — either on our sleeves in a
patch or in our hearts and minds. Collectively, we continue to build
the number one security company in the world through consistent
engagement with our employees, customers and stakeholders. We
want to be creative, we want to listen and we want to be responsible
and responsive.
I am proud to be a part of G4S today than ever before. I know the
people and events that fill these pages define G4S as never before.
In the words of the late, great Blues legend Johnny Lee Hooker: “If
you ain’t digging this, you got a hole in your soul!”
Enjoy this issue and thanks for being part of G4S!

G4S security officer Stephen Bennett is styling the Oakley sunglasses given to all members
of the G4S security team at the OSHA Million hours’ celebration.
Lower Alloways Creek Township, NJ: The entire security team at Salem/Hope
Creek has reached an impressive safety and security milestone: 1 million hours
without an OSHA reportable safety incident. The achievement was made possible
through teamwork and a commitment to preventing injuries. The one million hours
milestone is just one way our officers and managers work toward excellence and
demonstrate the importance of G4S values, especially safety. To celebrate the
event, the entire team enjoyed a barbeque and everyone was given Oakley sunglasses. Congratulations on an impressive record.
‘‘
’’
G4S officers and personnel are the best in the security business. Their dedication and passion for their work is
unsurpassed. We honor our All Stars because they are men and women of character who lead our teams displaying
leadership, discipline, integrity and a “can-do” attitude.

(L to R) G4S traffic officer Leo Vargas and Paramedic Jimmy Middleton
Boca Raton, FL: Two G4S officers were first on the scene of a traffic accident inside a gated community
where a car left the roadway and hit a tree. G4S Paramedic Captain Jimmy Middleton climbed into the
vehicle to assist the driver prior to the arrival of Palm Beach County Fire Rescue. Traffic Officer Leo
Vargas assisted Middleton and then directed traffic and rescue crews who arrived quickly. The driver
of the car was not seriously injured. Congratulations to Captain Middleton and officer Vargas for their
quick response.
St. Lucie, FL: Three G4S officers stopped to
help a client employee who was involved in an
accident with his motorcycle along a busy road.
Lt. Jeffrey Case, Sgt. Gabriel San Martin and
Capt. Robert Rossi moved the motorcycle from
the roadway, assisted emergency crews and
helped gather witnesses who might have
information about the crash. The men also
helped the crash victim call his family. As
emergency responders arrived, the G4S officers
also established traffic control. The three men
are being recognized for going above and
beyond their responsibilities by rendering
support and controlling the situation until
medical response arrived.

Jacksonville, FL: Two G4S officers are
receiving praise for the extra effort they made
to track down missing property at a client’s
large office complex. The effort began when an
employee reported a missing messenger bag
that may have been stolen. Even though it was
near the end of shift, Michelle Volcy and Kevin
Lester jumped into action. The pair spent part of
the evening and the following morning reviewing
security camera video from several different
buildings. From the surveillance information, the
two officers traced the missing bag to a meeting
room and returned it to the associate with all the
contents intact.

Portland, OR: Retired Portland Police legend
Harry Jackson has joined the G4S Close Protection Team in Portland. Jackson is known as a
hero for his efforts in community policing. He
brings a wealth of experience and unparalleled
professionalism to the job. Perhaps he is best
known nationally from his feature on the TV
show COPS. He was often filmed while walking
the beat and curbing prostitution and gang
activity in north and northeast Portland. Throughout his service, Harry has learned to hold
people accountable, while being compassionate
at the same time.
During his 34 years of police work, Harry has
developed an impressive resume from his
service in the Oregon State Police, Port of
Portland Police, Oregon Health Sciences
University and the Portland Police Bureau. As
an Oregon State Policeman in 1967, Harry was
the second African American hired on the force.
His experience in security at the Oregon Health
Sciences University has taught him additional
skills how to evaluate and deal with mentally ill
and homeless people.
Today, Harry is a key element in the G4S City of
Portland security team, where he and others are
charged with protecting the mayor, members of
the city council and the facilities where they
work. His instincts and skills continue to serve
him well, and are often put to the test.

From the Mayor’s Desk:
“The help this office and City Hall gets from G4S Secure
Solutions is invaluable,” says Portland Mayor Sam Adams.
“Because these are well-seasoned veterans of the police
force, they are able to deftly handle situations as they
arise, and they have the expertise to work with the police
department should something need to be elevated to that
level. When they are on detail with me in the public, I never
have to think about my safety. As an added bonus, I am
the police commissioner and their insight on public safety
has been invaluable. This contract has been more than
successful as it has evolved and I appreciate the high level
of support we get from these officers.”
What is the Portland Close Protection Team:
’’
Since 2006, G4S has provided Physical Security Management and Uniformed Security Services ( TSO/USO/CPO)
to the City of Portland Oregon. Under the leadership of Gary Crane, G4S has been recognized on several
occasions for outstanding performance, operational commitment and customer focused business practices.
Protecting Engineering Firm on U.S. Border
G4S Custom Protection Officers® are providing close
protection to an engineering firm working with the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers along the southern border. The
only way the engineering firm employees can work is on
foot, through the steep and rugged terrain walking to the
locations where the studies need to be done and the
armed CPOs follow.
The CPOs wear a BDU style uniform and a load bearing vest that allows them to carry food, water, additional
magazines, ammunition, satellite communications, first
aid kits, GPS, and their radios all with minimal discomfort. Some of the CPOs also wear knee and elbow
protection to minimize potential injuries in the event of a
slip or fall.
The G4S office in Tucson, Arizona recruits these
specialized CPOs who are often military or law
enforcement tactical team veterans. The groups of
specially-trained G4S officers are skilled in forward
observation and have the physical endurance to work in
rugged terrain.
The engineering firm works closely with several US
agencies to ensure access across the area and identify
illegal drug smuggling or undocumented immigrants
crossing the border. G4S officers have assisted the
engineering firm in pulling out from an area because of
dangerous activity.

Special Events
G4S officers and managers deserve the highest praise for their service during three recent
notible political events: the NATO Summit in Chicago, the Republican National Convention in
Tampa and the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.
The NATO Summit
(L to R) Team G4S at the NATO Summit: Hugo Nava, James Kelly, Robert Creed, Tracy Patterson, Nick Oyervides,
Ron Swanson, Robert Richter, Kevin Short, Pat O’Meara, Bill O’Brien, Chad Tancil and Kelley Heneghan
Chicago, IL: The G4S team received certificates of appreciation for the work they did with a financial services client
and other partners during the NATO Summit. Government representatives from 28 countries, including the U.S.,
gathered in Chicago for the two-day event. G4S pre-planning with our corporate clients began months in advance.
It’s important to note that G4S Chicago filled all assignments with local team members. While there were protests
in the city during the Summit, G4S officers were ready for any civil unrest activity that often follows the NATO
meetings. The G4S officers and supervisors performed exceptionally well with accolades coming from our financial
services client. The local team deserves praise in its service for our largest corporate customer while the world
was watching!
The Democratic National Convention
Charlotte, NC: More than 600 G4S officers were part of the safety and security effort during the Democratic
National Convention. Charlotte General Manager Bryan Smith and his team participated in 14 months of logistical
and security planning with local and national officials as well as several client partners. Demonstrations occurred
around the convention area and G4S officers were involved in 25 arrests during the three-day political event. Our
clients were pleased with the work from the G4S teams. Special thanks to Paul Gee, G4S Critical Facility Manager
for a financial services client in Charlotte.
The Republican National Convention
Tampa, FL: G4S assisted several corporate and higher education clients during the Republican National
Convention, recording more than 25,000 hours over a 14 day period. The planning for the security logistics began
months in advance. The teams of CPOs provided outstanding service to our clients and their customers.
Congratulations to General Manager Jim Parrish, Operations Manager Jerry Corso, Tampa Bank Captain Pat
Demings and the entire Tampa team for a job well done.

Waldo Canyon Fire swept near a large client facility, a
team of G4S officers remained on site, conducting
exterior patrols and updating management on fire
conditions and safety and security efforts. When the
danger had passed at the Agilent facility, the G4S team
received praise for their dedication and professionalism.
Even after employees were evacuated from the Agilent
buildings, G4S security officers Milko Davis, Timothy
Oursler and Duane Garcia remained at their posts
during the fire emergency. Because of multiple road
closures, other G4S officers were unable to access the
site and relieve them for 19 hours.
The G4S officers were the eyes and ears for the
technology client and constantly updated their
managers and emergency teams on the nearby fire
conditions and critical facilities operations.
With high winds, thick, dark smoke, and poor visibility
from the fire, G4S Officers continued intensive patrols
around the exterior perimeter of the Agilent complex
with a focus on detecting hot airborne material that
might drift on to the roof of the buildings. Luckily, the
facility was not directly impacted by the fire itself.
The G4S security team went above and beyond the call
of duty, even answering telephone calls from concerned
employees. Thank you G4S officers Davis, Oursler and
Garcia for your professionalism and dedication during
this emergency.

G4S Officer Nicholas Aman; G4S Officer Duane Garcia; G4S Officer Jason Morgan; G4S Officer Jeremy Peterson; Chuck Brock,

Raising Hope in Hawaii
Oahu, HI: G4S was a partner in the Convoy of
Hope Hawaii, which is the largest charitable effort
in the state. With help from businesses such as
G4S, the non-profit distributed tons of food,
school supplies and medical assistance to those
in need during a day-long, multi-location effort.
G4S is fortunate to have dedicated officers who
volunteered to provide security at three locations
on the Island of Oahu. “Listening to the touching
stories of the lives impacted, the types and
amount of donations provided, I knew that
Convoy of Hope has the same core values as
G4S and this would be the perfect event for us,”
said Lee Burgwinkel, G4S General Manager.
“Once we heard about it, G4S employees eagerly
joined in.” G4S partner, Outrigger Enterprise
Group, also helped in the volunteer effort.

(L to R) G4S Human Resources Specialist Veronica Valentino; CPO Kevin Finn; Tiffany Perdue and G4S General Manager Marcus
Perdue; Area Supervisor Amy Stanish, and Operations Manager Lynn McNeill.
Philadelphia, PA: G4S participated in a 5K Run/Walk benefitting “Defending the Blue Line”, a charitable
organization that helps children of armed service members to continue their participation in ice hockey
programs. The organization helps raise money for equipment, tournaments and financial assistance to
children of parents serving in the military. “CPO Kevin Finn, asked if G4S could lend assistance as a sponsor,”
said Marcus Perdue, G4S General Manager. “With so many of our security officers having served in the
military, we jumped at the chance to help. We were all very proud to see the G4S logo prominently displayed
on the t-shirts of all the volunteers at the event.” Although the miserable weather put a damper on the day,
the event had a great turnout. More than 30 participants raised more than $8,000.

G4S Team Donates New Bicycle to Employee
Fort Worth, TX: G4S officers at a distribution facility watched a man ride to
work every day on an old bicycle. The bike was too small, but through rain
and heat Del Roy Dauway made it to work. When the G4S team found Del
Roy walking along the interstate, without any hesitation, they took turns
picking him up and making sure he arrived at work on time. He explained his
bike was broken and he couldn't afford the repairs. The G4S team was so
moved by his dedication to his job and his family, they stepped up to help him.
They collected more than $200 to help Del Roy with a new road bike, a water
bottle, a water bottle holder, a helmet, and a bike lock. Kristian Stone, G4S
Security Site Supervisor, reports when he was presented with a new bike, Del
Roy was overcome with emotions that total strangers could care enough to
help him out.

Because sometimes there are moments in a security officer’s career when good training makes all the difference.
These are stories about G4S security officers who inspire us with their quick responses, acts of heroism and
uncompromising professionalism during emergency situations.

Port St. Lucie, FL: A patient at Lawnwood Regional Medical Center survived a scary choking incident thanks to the quick
action of G4S officer Michael Ward and medical professionals. The patient had just finished eating and began walking
back to her room when she started having difficulty breathing. Two nurses realized the patient was choking and performed
the Heimlich maneuver several times without success. They had trouble because the patient was physically much larger
than the nurses. G4S officer Michael Ward, who is more than 6-feet tall, stepped in and saved her life. The patient has
since returned to good health. Congratulations to G4S Officer Michael Ward and the medical staff for all their efforts.

Janca thought no one would
see her in the hotel hallway
that night. As she tip-toed
along, G4S supervisor Rachel
Sturgeon caught her in the act
and asked, “What are you
doing?” Cheryl explained that
she slipped a happy birthday
card, with $100 inside, under a
hotel room door. The gift was
meant to help a family who
was forced into the hotel after
their house burned to the
ground. The family had no
place to live. Cheryl, who
works with G4S in Omaha
said, “The little girl needs the
money more than I do.”
(Cheryl is part of a team temporarily in Indianapolis helping
with a large corporate transition.) Sturgeon said, “I saw the
mom downstairs later that
night. She was crying and saying over and over that they
needed the money more than
anyone knew.” Sturgeon explained the anonymous gift
was from G4S employee,
Cheryl Janca. The next day
the mom found Janca to thank
her for her random act of G4S
kindness.
