ZÜP | Security Clearance for Airport Jobs

For airport assignments (e.g., lounge service, catering, ground handling), a security clearance (ZÜP) according to §7 Aviation Security Act is required. ucm will assist you with this.

Submit application

ucm helps you fill out the ZÜP application and compiles all necessary documents.

02

Costs covered

ucm covers the costs for the ZÜP — you don't have to pay anything.

03

The security check usually takes 4–6 weeks. Once it's completed, you can be deployed at the airport.

Frequently asked questions about the process

Was bedeutet Arbeitnehmerüberlassung?
+

Bei der Arbeitnehmerüberlassung bist du bei ucm angestellt, arbeitest aber bei unseren Partnerunternehmen. ucm kümmert sich um Vertrag, Gehalt und Sozialversicherung - du konzentrierst dich auf deinen Job. Das Modell ist gesetzlich geregelt und bietet dir volle Absicherung.

Was ist die ZÜP und wie lange dauert sie?
+

Die Zuverlässigkeitsüberprüfung (ZÜP) ist eine Sicherheitsprüfung nach dem Luftsicherheitsgesetz, die für alle Tätigkeiten im Sicherheitsbereich von Flughäfen erforderlich ist. Wenn du dich für Flughafenjobs interessierst, hilft dir ucm beim Antrag und übernimmt die Kosten. Die Prüfung dauert ca. 4-6 Wochen.

Wie schnell kann ich nach der Bewerbung anfangen?
+

Nach Abschluss deiner Bewerbung und Verifizierung (1-2 Werktage) kannst du in der Regel innerhalb weniger Tage deine erste Schicht annehmen. Bei Flughafenjobs dauert es wegen der ZÜP etwas länger (ca. 4-6 Wochen). Alle anderen Einsätze können sofort starten.
