VA Employee Training: Reporting Misconduct and Cooperating with Inspector General

This new law mandates training for all Department of Veterans Affairs employees. The goal is to improve understanding of how to report fraud, waste, and abuse, and how to cooperate with the Office of Inspector General, enhancing transparency and accountability within the department.
Key points
All Department of Veterans Affairs employees must undergo training on reporting wrongdoing and cooperating with the Inspector General.
The training covers the Inspector General's role, methods for reporting fraud (including confidentially), and protection against retaliation for reporting.
New employees have one year from their start date to complete the training, while current employees have one year from the law's enactment.
Information about the training and how to contact the Inspector General will be regularly communicated to employees.
