TSA (Transportation Security Administration) plays a critical role in protecting the US transportation systems with the goal of ensuring freedom of movement for people and commerce (TSA Mission Statement). All of us as members of the trade community have a role in this effort.
JAS Forwarding USA Inc. Compliance team strives to foster exceptional cooperation and partnering with government agencies involved in our daily business activities. TSA is one of those key agencies!
JAS Forwarding USA Inc.’s commitment is displayed by participating in specific operational training at TSA’s request.
JAS is honored to support TSA in its newest See Something Say Something Campaign. Homeland Security is in the process of rolling out a pilot program for K9s, and are using trade community facilities as a setting for this training. K9s are one of the many integral layers of screening employed by TSA to ensure that our transportation networks are kept safe from threats. Both our JAS Forwarding USA Inc. Charleston, SC and Atlanta, GA locations have been used for this endeavor. These branch locations exemplify our policy of cooperation and informed compliance. All of our staff in our branch locations strategically placed around the USA are well trained and corporately supported in TSA regulations.
