Working for the MTA is a snooze for this security supervisor.
Photos obtained by The Post show transit veteran Anthony George — who oversees the supervisors in charge of protecting train yards, bus depots and MTA buildings — sound asleep during his shifts.
Those working under him say they face suspension and termination if they are caught dozing off on the job — but when they reported George’s naps to his bosses, they were told he has a medical problem.
“If we close our eyes at all, we are taken out of service for 30 days,” said one worker.
Another added, “The department has terminated agents for closing their eyes for three to five minutes.
“What should happen to someone that closes them for hours?”
George is in charge of overseeing the transit-property protection supervisors and agents.
“When he is inside, he spends most of the time asleep,” said another worker. “He is supposed to be taking care of problems that are called in from the field, reviewing reports before they go out. Monitoring situations that occur at night.”
George has risen through the ranks over his 26-year career to become a special inspector supervisor in the Department of Security.
He made $91,516 in 2012, according to the website See Through New York.
The MTA said that it would investigate whether George has been sleeping on the job after learning of the photographs — but added that officials were not aware of any complaints made about him.
“The MTA expects all employees to put in a full day’s work for a full day’s pay,” authority spokesman Adam Lisberg said.
When reached at his home, George declined to comment.
“As a New York City Transit employee, I can’t comment to the media,” he said.
His department is under investigation by the MTA’s inspector-general amid allegations of nepotism and cronyism, transit sources said.
Top security boss Vincent DeMarino resigned earlier this month after being probed for favoring retired cop pals in hiring and promotions.
