Security
From pickup to delivery your freight is secure
The advantages of entrusting AaE with your freight – our flexible product range, competitive pricing, superior network reach and solutions- oriented approach – would count for little if we weren’t equally committed to delivering rigorous and up to date security outcomes.
A coordinated, comprehensive approach
Working with security industry experts, AaE has implemented state of the art systems, procedures and technology, and takes every precaution possible to ensure your freight is handled, stored and transported securely.
Every consignment we carry for you is automatically safeguarded in all the following ways:
- Access controlled terminals
- Closed circuit TV surveillance (CCTV) and Digital Recording Systems
- 24/7 security guards at all major freight processing centres
- Security is the responsibility of all staff at AaE
We are equally thorough when it comes to personnel:
- AaE conducts background checks on all employees and contractors
- All AaE personnel carry individual photographic identification
- All AaE employees and contractors who handle air cargo are required to maintain competency in air cargo security awareness, including awareness of criminal activity and crime prevention measures
Loss Prevention and Risk Management
Another way we protect your best interests is by identifying, examining and eliminating security risks to our own business. In addition to validating the bona fides of all AaE personnel, this entails:
- Developing vulnerability analysis and risk management strategies
- Security inspections of people, vehicles and goods
- Scheduled security audits of the business
- Continuous review of loss prevention strategies
