OT: Pearson staff security ID card 'chaos'
http://torontosun.com/News/TorontoAn...50342-sun.html

A rush job to get new security passes to about 150,000 employees and air crew personnel at Pearson airport before the end of December has caused "chaos," long lineups and frustrated workers.

All employees, from pilots to baggage handlers to cleaning staff, are required to have the new ID card by Dec. 31 or they'll be barred from all secure areas at the airport.

Mandated by Transport Canada, the process involves fingerprinting, iris scans, and for many workers, a new background check.
