XPO renews partnership with TAT

US-based transport company, XPO, has extended its support for a non-profit organisation which combats human trafficking.

Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT) educates and empowers members of the transportation industry.

For the fifth consecutive year, XPO will serve as a platinum partner for TAT.

“At XPO, safety extends beyond our operations,” said XPO CEO, Mario Harik.

“It also includes supporting efforts that make our communities safer.

“Nearly 6,000 of our employees across the United States have received training to recognise and report suspected human trafficking.

“We are proud to provide extra eyes and ears on the road and look forward to continuing this partnership to help protect those who are vulnerable.”

XPO’s renewal of this partnership coincides with National Human Trafficking Awareness Month, which raises awareness for public resources like the National Human Trafficking Hotline. Reports from truck drivers nationwide have played a role in rescuing survivors and disrupting trafficking networks.

“Truck drivers are critical allies in the fight against human trafficking, and our roads and communities are safer because of the thousands of XPO drivers who have received anti-trafficking training,” said TAT Executive Director, Esther Goetsch.

“We’re grateful to XPO for their ongoing support and commitment to this important cause.”
