LAX Program Spotlight: Erica Moton
Erica Moton is an LAX worker and BSP Peer Trainer. She joined G2 Secure Staff in 2015 as a Cabin Service Agent and became a Customer Service Agent in Jan of 2016 and enjoys the role! She has been with the company for seven years.
Erica became involved in BSP’s Peer Trainer Program in April 2022. She likes helping others and getting to know people at a more personal level. “You never know people’s background and where they come from, what they like. I like learning about them and what their experiences have been like.”
As a BSP Peer Trainer, she is a mentor during the on-the-job training. Erica has served a notable role by training fellow program participants in BSP’s comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Training (EPT) curriculum.
BSP designed a passenger service worker Emergency Preparedness Program for Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to address the rising concerns of various emergencies and incidents that have occurred at airports worldwide.
Being a Peer Trainer has given her the opportunity to meet her coworkers at a deeper level while helping them with the training. She gets to help them on the chromebooks while learning a little more about them. She also really wants to learn Spanish and takes every opportunity to learn how to speak it with her co-workers.
Born in Downey, California, Erica’s dad was in the U.S. Navy, and she traveled across the country and went to school in different districts where he would be stationed, attending school in California, Colorado, Florida.
Growing into adulthood, she earned an AA in Child Development from El Camino College in California. Erica’s daughter Aubrey was born March 21, 2020. Erica says, “My daughter is my reason for everything!” She is her “mini-me.”
The Emergency Preparedness Training programs are a part of BSP’s high-road programs. These are part of the California Workforce Development Board’s High Road Training Partnership, which is funded through California Climate Investments, a statewide initiative that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health, and the environment — particularly in disadvantaged communities.
