Signature Aviation this week signed the U.S. Department of Transportation’s "Transportation Leaders Against Human Trafficking" pledge, joining other companies in the transportation sector in educating its employees and raising public awareness of this illegal activity.

According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, crimes like human trafficking can be more prevalent during events like the Super Bowl due to the mass volume of people and anonymity that large gatherings provide.“There is evidence around certain sporting events and other things that some of this trafficking increases,” Signature CEO Tony Lefebvre told AIN. “We’re very prominent in Las Vegas and we want to make sure that the event is not only a great one for everybody who is coming in but also a safe event.”
