Our expertise in law and government, specifically in the legal field, allows us to offer valuable insights to individuals seeking knowledge on this important topic. Read on to understand everything you need to know about DBA workers compensation.

What is the Defense Base Act (DBA)?

The Defense Base Act (DBA) is a crucial federal law that provides compensation and protection for overseas employees working under U.S. government contracts. It covers various occupations, including construction workers, security personnel, and civilian contractors. If you are employed in these occupations and experience work-related injuries or illnesses, the DBA ensures you receive necessary medical treatment and financial support.

Understanding DBA Workers Compensation

DBA workers compensation refers to the benefits and financial support offered to covered individuals under the Defense Base Act. These benefits cover medical expenses, disability compensation, rehabilitation costs, and even death benefits for eligible dependents. It is important to note that the compensation claims process under DBA differs from traditional workers compensation claims.

Navigating the DBA Workers Compensation Process

When filing a DBA workers compensation claim, it is essential to follow the correct procedures and ensure all necessary documentation is in order. The process can be complex, but with the assistance of our experienced legal team at Berggren & Turturice, you can navigate the various stages with ease.

3. Filing the Claim
