Division of Federal Employees' Compensation

The Division of Federal Employees' Compensation (DFEC) is part of the U.S. Department of Labor, responsible for administering the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA). This program provides financial and medical benefits to federal employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. Benefits include wage replacement and payment for medical care, rehabilitation services, and vocational training. The DFEC ensures that injured federal workers receive the support they need to recover and return to work, while also managing claims and ensuring compliance with federal regulations regarding workplace safety and employee rights.
