Dallas (WBAP/KLIF) – Dallas based Southwest Airlines has launched an online curriculum for the airline’s more than 59,000 employees to bring greater awareness to human trafficking. Since a large percentage of victims are transported via airplane, employees are being taught how to identify human trafficking, and suggested actions that should be taken, if necessary, to combat suspected trafficking. Southwest Airlines Chairman and CEO Gary Kelley says, “We are proud to offer Human Trafficking awareness curriculum to the entire Southwest Team so that we can continue our efforts to identify any signs of Human Trafficking that might occur within our industry. This commitment further strengthens our mission of being good caretakers of the Customers and communities that we serve each day.”
