The US National Safe Skies Alliance Program for Applied Research in
Airport Security (PARAS) selected The Chertoff Group to develop
best practices and actionable plans for airports to assess if full
employee screening is appropriate in their environment and enable
informed decision-making for implementation. (PARAS 0063
Considerations for Full Employee Screening at Airports)
“We are pleased to work with Safe Skies on this important
initiative and we will gather feedback from airport leadership in
diverse locations on vital considerations when implementing
employee screening,” said Lee Kair principal of Transportation
& Innovation at The Chertoff Group. “This research will help
airports make informed decisions.”
The end-product will be a comprehensive assessment and
framework, including but not limited to general recommendations
on:
- Needs Assessment and Business Case Development
- Infrastructure and Space Requirements
- Screening Procedures and Staffing
- Use of Technology
- Training and Quality Assurance
- Regulatory and Legal Considerations
- Funding Mechanism
- Stakeholder Engagement Methods
U.S. airports that conduct full employee screening are typically
among the largest and busiest. However, the experiences and lessons
learned by these large airports may not directly apply to smaller
airports due to differences in size and available resources. This
research and final report will develop comprehensive guidance that
is applicable to all airports, regardless of their size. The
guidance will address the complexity and cost of implementing a
full employee screening program, ensuring that each airport can
develop a business case tailored to its unique environment and
needs.
