Our objective was to evaluate the U.S. Postal Service’s management of the HCR late trip payment process. To accomplish our objective, we selected three samples of late trip payment transactions to review for accuracy of the payments. The first was a statistical sample of 208 of the 52,446 payment transactions for FY 2021 and FY 2022. The second was a judgmental sample of 55 transactions greater than 200 hours late. The last was a judgmental sample of 163 of the 1,629 lump sum payment transactions.
