Union Objects To Fines For Social Security Employees

The Federal Times reports that the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) is objecting to monetary penalties for Social Security employees who are alleged to have improperly applied expert testimony to allow a large number of Social Security disability claims. The fines involved amount to $3.5 million for one supervisor and $100,000 and $215,000 for other employees. The matter is being litigated and the union has filed grievances.
