Self-check

Were you injured at your job?

Navigating the aftermath of a workplace injury can be overwhelming. You may be thinking:

  1. A man wincing with both hands on his lower back

    "It was nothing. This doesn't qualify for worker's compensation."

    Small pains can mask underlying conditions that need professional documentation for your claim.

  2. "I'll just take some pain medication and let my body heal on its own."

    Immediate professional assessment helps prevent minor injuries from becoming major health problems.

  3. "I'll let my supervisor know tomorrow."

    Prompt reporting helps start the worker's compensation application sooner.

  4. "I'll get fired!"

    You cannot be fired for filing a federal worker's compensation claim.

  5. "I can't afford to miss any days."

    You may have the right to wage-loss compensation along with medical and rehabilitation coverage.

Don't wait until the pain becomes permanent.

Our specialists help you navigate the OWCP process with professional care.

What matters next

What qualifies for a federal worker's comp claim?

In simple terms, if you got injured or disabled on the job, you qualify for worker's comp. Workers' Compensation is a type of insurance, under the Federal Employees Compensation Act (FECA), created to protect both employees and employers. You have the right to receive lost wages for a determined period and to have your medical bills covered for work-related injuries or illness.

If you want to make sure you have the right to a claim, you may consider seeking legal counsel before filing. In the event your claim is denied, you may want to hire an attorney to appeal your case. Should you need help finding a lawyer, we can recommend one to you.
