Corporate Responsibility

 

At Brink’s Canada Limited, corporate social responsibility means...

  • the determination to improve the world we live in
  • the passion to give back to the communities where our employees and customers live and work
  • the generous undertaking to build and sustain human equity by  those in need

We believe that  responsible and caring corporate citizenship is the hallmark of true business leadership. Brink's Canada not only provides donations and gifts in kind to a number of charitable organizations, but we encourage our employees to volunteer for charitable organizations both nationally and locally. 

Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada (MS)

Brink’s Canada has designated the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada (MS) as its corporate charity. Brink's Canada proudly supports organizations like the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada through corporate partnerships such as Team MS.

Brink’s Canada has supported The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada for over six years. During that time our people have donated over $60,000 to help enhance the lives of the 50,000 Canadians living with Multiple Sclerosis and help fund research in finding a cure.

Brink's Canada believes in being an active partner in the communities we serve – the communities where our employees live and work. Working with charities is part of the long-term vision of our company and of our employees.

Environmental Approach

All companies within the transportation sector realize that exhaust emissions from vehicles have an environmental impact. Brink’s Canada has a regular fleet maintenance program to ensure our vehicles operate at optimal levels to keep environmental impact to a minimum. Brink's Canada is pursuing an aggressive vehicle replacement program, the by-product of this program is that inefficient engines are being taken out of service, being replaced by cleaner burning, newer technology engines.

Brink’s Canada Limited is committed to ensuring that all of its operations are conducted in an environmentally responsible manner.

Brink’s Canada’s environmental management objectives are stated in the following policy:

  • Recognize good environmental management among the highest company priorities.
  • Establish environmentally sound programs and practices for conducting operations, taking into particular consideration the efficient use of energy and the safe disposal of residual wastes.
  • Educate, train and motivate employees to conduct their activities in an environmentally responsible manner. Comply with and, whenever practicable, exceed existing statutory and regulatory environmental requirements.
  • Disaster Recovery Plans in the event of an environmental hazard.

Brink’s Canada participates in recycling programs at all branches and offices.

Brink’s Canada is dedicated to compliance with environmental laws and sound environmental practices and have articulated broad environmental principles to govern its diverse operations.

The management of each of Brink’s Canada’s operating groups is required to adopt and adhere to policies consistent with these broad principles and to effectively address environmental concerns, including those of particular application to each group’s business activities.
