Workers' Compensation

Senator Lieberman's Constituent Service Center regularly receives the following questions regarding workers' compensation. If your question is not answered here, please send an email so that his staff may address your concern.

• Where can I go to find out more information about workers' compensation?
• I am a federal employee who has been injured on the job. How do I file for workers' compensation?
• I filed a federal workers' compensation claim and it seems to be taking a long time to process. Can Senator Lieberman assist me in moving my claim along?

Q. Where can I go to find out more information about workers' compensation?

The best resource for information on workers' compensation for federal employees is the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP). Please note that the U.S. Department of Labor only administers workers' compensation programs for federal employees.

Individuals injured on the job while employed by private companies or state and local government agencies should contact the workers' compensation board in the state in which they are employed. Links to all state workers' compensation boards can be found here.

Q: I am a federal employee who has been injured on the job. How do I file for workers' compensation?

For more information on filing a federal workers' compensation claim, please visit the OWCP web page. Most important, please be sure that you obtain first aid or medical treatment at the time of your injury, even if you believe your injury is minor.

Q: I filed a federal workers' compensation claim and it seems to be taking a long time to process. Can Senator Lieberman assist me in moving my claim along?

Due to the complexities of workers' compensation claims, they may take several months for adjudication. Senator Lieberman is not able to expedite your claim. However, Senator Lieberman can perform a courtesy check on the status of your claim.
