In the AO framework, which role handles badging background checks?

• A. Trusted Agent
• B. Airport Police
• C. ASC
• D. TSI

Answer: (A)

In this framework, badging background checks are handled by the Trusted Agent. This role is specifically empowered to conduct security screenings for badge applicants, verify identity, review records, and determine eligibility before a badge is issued. The Trusted Agent is responsible for completing the background verification in line with policy, keeping documentation, and coordinating with security or HR as needed. Other roles—Airport Police focus on enforcement and security actions, ASC oversees the access program and badge workflow, and TSI conducts audits—have responsibilities outside of performing background checks. So the Trusted Agent is the one designated to carry out the background checks for badges.
