Compensation Act (FECA). In this

Employees’ Compensation (DFEC)
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
routinely responds to a myriad of
written and telephonic inquiries. Claims
staff issue written correspondence when
developing and adjudicating a claim,
and when terminating, reducing, or
suspending compensation entitlement.
Because of security and safety
concerns expressed by our employees,
DFEC is proposing to change its
longstanding procedure of placing
employee names on correspondence and
all decisions in FECA cases. A similar
change would be applied to oral
communications. To fulfill this
requirement, the Division proposes to
implement new pseudonym procedures
by August 2018.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed below on
or before June 18, 2018.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
concerning this notice by mail, delivery
service, or by hand to Ms. Yoon
Ferguson, United States Department of
Labor, 200 Constitution Ave. NW, Room

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OWCP
DFEC fully recognizes the importance of
the safety and welfare of DFEC
employees in its mandate to fulfill the
requirements of the Federal Employees’
Compensation Act (FECA), 5 U.S.C.
8101 et seq. Balancing the safety of its
employees and the communication
needs of our stakeholders, DFEC is
proposing the below methods in its
written and telephonic
communications:
1. All signatures and names currently
appearing on outgoing correspondence
will be replaced with ‘‘Division of
Federal Employees’ Compensation’’.
2. To preserve the Employees’
Compensation Appeals Board’s (ECAB)
ability to identify the adjudicator of
certain decisions, DFEC will use a QR
code to identify decision authors.
3. A naming convention for the staff
will be used to provide every employee
with a pseudonym for use in telephone
and other oral communications.
Employees will utilize the entire first
name and last name initial only. If more
than one individual has that
combination (e.g., two Thomas J.’s in an
office) then the middle initial will be
added.
4. Outgoing correspondence will not
reveal the pseudonym when printed.
Instead the pseudonym will be
embedded into a QR Code on the letter,
PO 00000
Frm 00059
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
allowing any person with a QR scanner
on their mobile device to view the
pseudonym.

Federal Register.
