Administrative Investigation Prohibited Personnel Practices, Abuse of Authority, Misuse of Position, and False Statements, Office of Human Resources and Administration, VA Central Office

摘要

We substantiated that Mr. Willie L. Hensley, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary, VA Office of Human Resources and Administration (HRA), engaged in prohibited personnel practices, abused his authority, misused his position to appoint two subordinates, and that he made false statements. We also found that the management analyst, Office of Human Resources Management (OHRM), misused the official time and that the management analyst, OHRM, misrepresented her income to be appointed at a higher than minimum rate of pay and made false statements. We further found that the HR specialist, and a former (retired) management analyst engaged in prohibited personnel practices in the appointment of the analyst and that a former (retired) Personnel Officer and Director of VA Central Office HR Services failed to follow policy in setting the analyst higher than minimum rate of pay.
