LAM LHA ADVISORY
- Facilitated four Airport Discussion Groups, with a total of 20 U.S. airport operators participating to collect best practice and prioritize key concerns & considerations
- Captured and reported on topics to include access points, staffing models, screening methods, and designing a Prohibited Items List
- Developed tools to assist U.S. airport operators in integrating aviation worker screening into day-to-day operations
Key Outcomes
- Robust guidance material toassist U.S. airports identify the most adequate solutions for their specific operational environment. Final report available here.
The National Amendment issued by TSA in April 2023 requiring some U.S. airports to enhance aviation worker screening practices posed challenges for a range of airport operators. LAM LHA was delighted to work with Safe Skies and the U.S. airport community to develop guidance material that will assist airports today and well into the future.
