Workers' compensation exists to provide benefits for U.S.
employees. People that have suffered a work related injury
might be entitled to receive workers' compensation for the
injuries they have endured. The workers' compensation benefits
may include payment of medical expenses and compensation for
any lost wages. In addition, workers' compensation can be
paid to an employee's dependents if they die from a work-related
injury or disease.
There is federal workers' compensation act and individual
states have their own workers' compensation laws. The Office
of Workers' Compensation Program administers the federal workers'
compensation act. Any U.S. civilian employee is covered under
federal workers' compensation, excluding the people paid from
non-appropriated funds.
Workers' compensation coverage covers all Federal employees
regardless of the length of time they have had the job and
their position. Any type of injury or disease can be covered
by workers' compensation if it was caused by the job during
work hours. Workers' compensation does not cover injuries
caused by willful misconduct, intent to bring the injury to
him/herself, or an injury caused by intoxication.
