The Firing Of Incumbent Airport Security Screeners
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. That every single aspect of airport security has changed significantly since 911 is an understatement of grand proportions. Indeed, the extent to which the aviation industry has been modified – from screening procedures to outfitting airplanes with marshals to inspecting the food placed onboard to feed passengers – is indicative of a far more prudent and methodical approach to airport safety. Among these changes, however, has been a trend to remove incumbent security screeners in lieu of those who are more highly trained – as well as American citizens – to detect the smallest nuance of suspicion. This move toward outfitting an entirely new security workforce, according to critics, is both unfair and unnecessary; proponents contend, however, that the unequivocal demand for more stringent safety measures at America's airports requires a better qualified individual – mentally, physically and culturally – to carry out the newly implemented procedures. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
