Highlights
GAO reviewed the administration of the injury compensation program at the Fort Worth Post Office to assess allegations that the Post Office management views all reports of on-the-job injury as fraudulent until proven otherwise and, because of this: (1) delays or otherwise interferes with processing reports of injury and claims for compensation, and (2) requires partially disabled employees to work jobs and schedules that differ from their regular duty assignments.
