Audit finds gaps in OCM BOCES background checks for workers with student contact A state audit found OCM BOCES did not independently verify background checks for 14 non-employees who had direct contact with students and were given access to school buildings. The audit by the New York State Comptroller's Office found the organization relied on information from outside organizations rather than independently confirming that background checks had been completed. The audit did not determine whether any of the 14 individuals passed or failed their background checks. The finding was that OCM BOCES did not independently verify the checks before granting or maintaining building access. The 14 non-employees included third-party service providers who had direct contact with students. The audit also found broader problems with OCM BOCES' management of building access. The organization had 1,308 active access accounts, including 846 devices issued to current employees and 443 issued to nonemployees. Auditors found 141 active individual non-employee accounts and badges that were no longer needed. One badge was assigned to a person OCM BOCES officials did not recognize and could not explain why the individual had access. Another 86 shared accounts and badges were no longer needed and should have been deactivated. Officials could not locate 11 of those badges. The Comptroller's Office said OCM BOCES had procedures for adding accounts but lacked a process to promptly disable or delete accounts when they were no longer needed. Officials also did not have adequate procedures to verify and document background checks for non-employees with access to school buildings and direct contact with students. The audit includes four recommendations, including strengthening procedures for verifying and documenting background checks before nonemployees receive building access. OCM BOCES officials generally agreed with the recommendations. The OCM BOCES Board of Education must submit a written corrective action plan addressing the findings and recommendations within 90 days. The audit was issued Aug. 14, 2026.
