Pentagon Assurance Joins the Organisation for Responsible Businesses (ORB)
At Pentagon Assurance, we’re proud to announce our membership with the Organisation for Responsible Businesses (ORB). This is a step that aligns seamlessly with our values and reinforces our commitment to operating ethically, sustainably, and responsibly.
What is ORB?
The Organisation for Responsible Businesses is a UK-based membership movement created to empower solo and microbusinesses that are driven by purpose as well as profit. Built around the core value of kindness, ORB promotes a people, planet, profit mindset, encouraging small businesses to lead by example in their local communities and across industries.
Their mission is simple yet powerful:
To create positive change for business and society by showing SMEs how ethical and responsible business can be the most profitable and sustainable.
What It Means to Be a Responsible Business
Since its launch in 2010, ORB has defined a responsible business as one that:
- Operates efficiently and ethically
- Meets and exceeds legal requirements
- Considers its impact on people, the environment, and society as a whole
Crucially, ORB advocates for a values-based and holistic approach. This ensures that the principles of responsible business are embedded throughout every layer of an organisation. It’s not just as a tick-box exercise, but as part of its very culture.
Each ORB member signs a pledge committing to honest and ethical operations, environmental and social consideration in decision-making, and contributing positively to their community. Pentagon Assurance is proud to stand alongside like-minded businesses with this commitment at heart.

Joining ORB allows us to formalise this ethos, demonstrating to our partners, clients, and network that we are actively aligning our services with responsible business values.
Our services already support organisations in working more safely, compliantly, and sustainably. ORB membership further strengthens our commitment to:
- Embedding sustainable thinking into health, safety, and compliance frameworks
- Supporting clients in achieving meaningful, values-led ISO certifications
