Abstract
We determine the general form of the first order linear symmetry operators for the linearized field equation of metric perturbations in the spacetimes of dimension D>=4. Apart from the part derived easily from the invariance under general coordinate transformations, we find a part consisting of a Killing-Yano 3-form.
