I. Background
The Office of Workers’ Compensation
Programs (OWCP) administers the
Federal Employees’ Compensation Act
(FECA), 5 U.S.C. 8101 et seq. The statute
provides for the payment of benefits for

arising out of a work related injury or
disease. The Act outlines the elements
of pay which are to be included in an
individual’s pay rate, and sets forth
various other criteria for determining

eligibility to and the amount of benefits,
including: Augmentation of basic
compensation for individuals with
qualifying dependents; a requirement to
report any earnings during a period that
compensation is claimed; a prohibition
against concurrent receipt of FECA
benefits and benefits from OPM or
certain VA benefits; a mandate that
money collected from a liable third
party found responsible for the injury
for which compensation has been paid
is applied to benefits paid or payable.
This information collection is currently
approved for use through September 30,
2011.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
