The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has called on the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts to take stronger action against workplace misconduct. The GAO’s report revealed over 500 allegations of misconduct, including nearly 200 cases of discrimination, within the court system between 2020 and 2022. The report highlighted the need for improved data collection, better identification and addressing of misconduct, and equal treatment of complaints. Rep. Norma J. Torres (D-CA) emphasized the importance of holding the federal Judiciary to high standards of integrity and ethical conduct. The report also criticized the court system’s policies for not aligning with recommended practices to prevent harassment. The GAO’s findings have prompted calls for change and increased efforts to protect the over 30,000 employees within the federal Judiciary.
