I recently learned of a newly hired federal employee who was conducting their own investigation of suspected time card fraud of a support services contractor employee. When I learned of this, I advised the person that they should report suspected fraud to the OIG, and not conduct their own investigation. I suggest that this Order add a requirement for federal and contractor employees to refrain from conducting their own investigations, but instead require them to immediately refer the matter to the OIG.
