DOE Employee Justifies Performance Award by Self Evaluating Performance

By Clea

ADVERTISEMENTS

A former Department of Energy employee pleaded guilty to one count of false statements, after the Department of Justice accused him of writing his own annual review. He did so, according to news reports, in order to justify an annual performance award that he also managed to give himself.

According to the DOJ, no individual at the Department of Energy had approved his annual performance award.

Of course, if you forge your own performance review in a private company you will probably get fired. If you do this while working for the federal government, you will receive criminal charges. The man faces a maximum penalty of a $250,000 fine and five years in prison.
