USPS OIG

Overview

The U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General (USPS OIG) is an independent agency established by Congress in 1996. Its primary role is to promote efficiency, accountability, and integrity within the U.S. Postal Service. The agency conducts audits, investigations, and research to detect and prevent fraud, waste, abuse, and misconduct in postal operations.

Objective audits and reviews of Postal Service programs are performed to investigate allegations of misconduct and provide recommendations for operational improvement. Reports are presented to Postal Service leadership, Congress, and other stakeholders, helping ensure that corrective actions are taken. The agency's oversight responsibilities expanded in 2022 to include the Postal Regulatory Commission. Its outputs include audit reports, investigative findings, and analytical products offering insights into postal operations, thereby supporting a reliable and efficient postal system for diverse stakeholders.
