Free Travel or Lodging
There’s No Such Thing as a Free Trip
- A Postal Service employee is prohibited from accepting free travel or lodging from an outside source.
- Either postal funds or personal funds must be used to pay for an employee’s travel to a conference, symposium, or other event.
When you refrain from accepting prohibited gifts from an outside source, you strengthen the Postal Service’s reputation for transparency, fairness, and honesty.
And that’s smart business.
