Capping Report - Ohio 2 District: Controls Over Retail Transactions
Background
This report presents a summary of the results of our self-initiated audits assessing the controls over retail transactions at three selected retail units in the Ohio 2 District. These retail units include Madeira Branch, Groesbeck Branch, and the Cincinnati Main Post Office in the Ohio 2 District of the Central Area. The U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General (OIG) previously issued interim reports to district management for each of these retail units regarding the conditions we identified.
Our objective was to review cash and stamp inventories, daily reporting activities, clock ring adjustments, and employee separations at the Madeira Branch, Groesbeck Branch, and the Cincinnati Main Post Office. Our audit review scope period was October 1, 2022, through March 31, 2023. We reviewed the three post offices during the week of May 8, 2023. We are issuing this capping report to provide the U.S. Postal Service with overall findings and recommendations for all three post offices.
