The Federal Employees' Compensation Act

The Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA) is a U.S. law that provides benefits to federal employees who suffer job-related injuries or illnesses. Under FECA, eligible workers receive compensation for medical expenses, wage loss due to disability, and rehabilitation services. The Act ensures that employees can seek care and support if they are injured while performing their duties, promoting a safer work environment. Overall, FECA aims to protect federal workers by offering financial assistance and support for their recovery and return to work.
