Becoming an Employer of Choice
At XPG, we are committed to creating a workplace that attracts, develops, and retains top talent. We embrace a “There for You” culture, designed to foster an environment of trust, support, and care at all levels of the organisation. This approach has enabled us to embark on a journey to become an Employer of Choice, where the employee experience is central to our success.
Our I-Care Leadership philosophy drives this cultural transformation. By prioritising empathy, trust, and support, we create an exceptional environment where employees feel valued, heard, and empowered to unlock their full potential. We promote from within, focus on employee rewards, and ensure a diverse and inclusive workplace.
We consistently seek feedback through our Employee Engagement Survey, which reaches employees across Australia. This feedback helps us identify areas for improvement and develop actionable solutions.
To further enhance inclusivity, the upcoming survey will be available in 10 languages, enabling broader participation and ensuring that all voices are heard.

Supporting Our Customers’ Objectives with Sustainable Mobility
At XPG, we are deeply committed to sustainability and supporting our clients in achieving their low-carbon supply chain goals. One of the ways we demonstrate this commitment is through the integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into our operations.
By transitioning to EVs, we significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, lowering our carbon footprint while continuing to deliver high-quality services to our clients. Currently, more than 90% of our patrol fleet has been replaced with hybrid and electric vehicles, reflecting our ongoing commitment to sustainability.
The shift to EVs not only enables our security officers to perform their duties in a more environmentally responsible way but also supports our drive to reduce fuel dependency. With real-time data and security assessments, we optimise vehicle usage, balancing on-site personnel with technology-driven solutions for an optimal carbon footprint.
This commitment to sustainable practices underscores our dedication to business continuity, secure client assets, and a future where we protect both people and the planet.
