Highlights

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined the representation of women and minorities at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), and U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPS), focusing on: (1) whether improvement has been made in the representation of women and minorities in the criminal investigator occupation since 1982; (2) whether the career progression of women and minority criminal investigators is similar to that of white male criminal investigators; and (3) reasons for any different career progression patterns.
