The BART Office of the Inspector General (OIG) has released a new investigative summary detailing findings of policy violations, unprofessional conduct, and a case of time theft totaling $15,679.

Independent investigators confirmed instances of inappropriate behavior by executive personnel but found no evidence of discrimination. In a separate case, an employee falsified time records on 16 occasions, while their supervisor failed to provide the necessary oversight. The same employee also compromised the integrity of a disciplinary process by improperly sharing confidential interview materials.

To address these issues, we have recommended that BART seek restitution, enforce accountability measures, and strengthen oversight procedures.

We encourage you to review the summary video and full report for detailed insights:
