TSA shift schedule at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
The hours, the tours and how the days off are decided for TSA officers at SEA — 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 SEA publishes, and what it looks like in the app.
TSA's own airport fact sheet states "morning, afternoon and night shifts", that "screening operations are located inside and outside the terminal", and that "SEA is currently assessing candidates for full-time and part-time positions. Full-time: 40 hrs. per week of five (5) workdays of eight (8) hours per day. Part-time: 20-32 hrs. per week tour of duty. Number of workday hours depend on the needs of the airport."
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. SEATTLE'S PART TIME IS A RANGE OF TWELVE HOURS - anywhere from 20 to 32 a week, with the daily hours set by what the airport needs. Full time is fixed at five eights. So two people on the same part-time contract can work very different weeks, and TSA does not publish the days off for either. You mark your own two days once and the year fills itself in.

- Full time

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.
