During the hiring process to be a Tsa agent, do they check medical records?


Question Posted Thursday December 21 2017, 10:00 am

I was diagnosed with mental health problems, but I’m fine now and I take medicine. If I tell them will that disqualify me from the job? Will they check my medical records and find out?

Your medical records are confidential. You need to give them written permission to see them. as to telling them in advance. IF there is no question on the application as to your mental heath then you are not obligated to tell them.

The only reason I could see for you offering this information without being asked is if you mental health problem would interfere in anyway with your job responsibility.

Short answer TSA will not find out on their own so you cannot be disqualified. No they cannot check your medical records. This requires written permission from you so be careful of what you sign.
