TSA mandates ID‑check officers stay standing at U.S. security checkpoints
Based on · First reported
Sources
- The Transportation Security Administration has issued a new rule that officers who verify passengers' identification must remain on their feet while performing that task at security checkpoints.
- The requirement applies only to the ID‑checking function and does not affect officers who operate X‑ray scanners, who may stay seated, and it covers all TSA‑staffed airports in the United States, while about 20 airports that use private screeners under the Screening Partnership Program are not subject to the rule.
