Falck: People helping people
Falck has more than 13,000 employees, and we consider helping and protecting other people as our most important task.
Falck is built upon the philosophy of people helping people, and it was with a starting point in this mission that our Danish founder, Sophus Falck, set up the business in 1906.
One hundred years later, millions of people all over the world stand face to face with a Falck employee each year: when a traffic accident occurs, when a fire breaks out, when a car breaks down, when the roof blows off a house, when somebody needs a shoulder massage, when somebody needs to talk to a psychologist, when a helicopter pilot learns how to survive a crash, or when employees on oil rigs around the world practise preventing accidents and alleviating the effects of accidents.
Falck's employees can handle these tasks because we have strong professional capabilities and because we have the ability and will to help other people.
