Penske Transportation Solutions has committed to supporting the Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT) organization.

The umbrella brand for Penske Truck Leasing, Penske Logistics, Epes Transport Systems and Penske Vehicle Services is war-ready to fight human trafficking by certifying its over 5,500 truck drivers with TAT training.    

TAT Deputy Director Kylla Lanier sees Penske’s level of commitment and support to their organization as a statement to place its industry to significantly contribute to helping improve the lives of those who have been exploited, according to PR Newswire.   

"This is an extremely important cause and we are honored to join with others in our industry to support an organization whose mission is so critical," Brian Hard, president & CEO of Penske Transportation Solutions, said. "We are looking forward to providing our drivers with the tools they need to identify and report possible trafficking cases. We are aligned with TAT's overarching goal to saturate the trucking industry with educational information and ultimately combat this horrific crime."
