TSA shift schedule at Fort Dodge Regional Airport
The hours, the tours and how the days off are decided for TSA officers at FOD — taken from the agency’s own airport fact sheet, not from a jobs board.
TSA publishes a fact sheet for every airport it screens, and it sets out the tours worked at that one. Here is what FOD publishes, and what it looks like in the app.
TSA's own airport fact sheet states that "FOD is currently assessing candidates for part-time positions with a tour of duty of 25 hours per week", that "shift schedules vary, depending on flight schedules, to include weekends and holidays", and that this "consists of 4 or 5 workdays with 4 or 5 hours per day during the morning and afternoon shifts". The airport runs 12 hours a day, seven days a week, with peak times noon to 2 p.m. and 4 to 6 p.m.
Sunday to Saturday, twice — the same order the calendar runs in.

The two days off in the month above are an example, and that is the point. Twenty-five hours that can fall as four days or five, of four hours or five, and the sheet says the flight schedule decides which. Nothing about the week is settled except its total. You mark your own two days once and the year fills itself in.

Screening rosters are set by the airport, adjusted after they are issued, and the days off are bid. Why that is, in TSA’s own words.
