Crime, Corruption & Racketeering
The Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) conducts investigations to determine if violations of the Labor-Management Relations and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) provisions have occurred.
Investigations are initiated based on various sources such as complaints from union members; information developed by OLMS as a result of reviewing reports filed; information developed during an OLMS audit of a union’s books and records; and information obtained from other government agencies. Investigations may involve civil matters (such as an election of union officers) or criminal matters (such as embezzlement of union funds).
Corruption and Embezzlement Charges
| Type of Criminal Activity | Number of Incidents |
|---|---|
| 3 | |
| criminal charges | 12 |
| embezzlement charges | 28 |
| Guilty Pleas | 16 |
| Indictments | 8 |
| Officials Sentenced | 10 |
Some incidents may be accounted for in multiple categories.
