This bill, known as the "TSA Commuting Fairness Act," directs the Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to conduct a comprehensive feasibility study . The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of classifying the time TSA employees spend traveling between their regular duty locations and airport parking lots or public transit stops as on-duty hours . The study must be submitted to relevant congressional committees within 270 days of the Act's enactment. It requires the Administrator to consider several factors, including the amount of travel time at different airport sizes, the potential benefits to employees and the Administration , and the feasibility of using technology like mobile phones for reporting. Additionally, the study must estimate the costs associated with treating this travel time as on-duty hours, including its impact on retirement benefits.
