Are TSA transpiration security officers considered employees that work in the transportation industry

You are in the transportation industry if your work:

  • Directly involves moving people or goods by airplane, barge, bus, ship, train, or truck, and
  • Regularly requires you to travel away from home and, during any single trip, usually involves travel to areas eligible for different standard meal allowance rates.

Consequently, if by "Transportation Security Officer" you mean the equivalent of an Air Marshall, yes they would be.  If you are referring to an officer checking individuals into a terminal of some sort, they wouldn't be.
