On October 1st the TSA will begin voting on it's first labor contract. This contract would end the Performance Evaluation and Standards System (PASS) system and replace it with a more quality based evaluation system rather than the current quantity based system.

The contract places strong emphasis on advantages for seniority and would reform the leave process and shift trading/bidding process. The contract will also create new awards for the officers at local and national levels and double the $232 per year uniform allowance.

Voting for TSA officers is set to take place at major airports and by mail. A majority vote will ratify the 3 year contract with the American Federation of Government Employees. the AFGE supported the bill saying the contract will help the TSA in their mission.
