What Is OWCP?

OWCP stands for the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs. It is a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Labor. OWCP provides workers’ compensation benefits to federal employees who are injured or become sick because of their job.

How Do I File a Federal Workers’ Compensation Claim?

If you are a federal employee injured at work, your claim goes through the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP), which is part of the U.S. Department of Labor.

Here is a simple step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Report the Injury Immediately

Tell your supervisor as soon as possible.

For a sudden injury (fall, lifting injury, accident), report it right away.

For a condition that developed over time (repetitive stress, back pain), report it as soon as you realize it is work-related.

Quick reporting protects your rights.

Step 2: Complete the Correct Claim Form

There are two main forms:

CA-1 – For a traumatic injury (specific event on a specific day)

CA-2 – For an occupational illness (developed over time)

Your agency will usually help you submit this through the ECOMP system.

Step 3: Get Medical Treatment from an OWCP Doctor

You have the right to choose your own doctor.

Your doctor must:

Clearly state your diagnosis

Explain how the injury is work-related

Provide treatment plans

Give work restrictions if needed

Strong medical documentation is critical. Many claims are denied because the doctor’s report does not clearly connect the injury to your federal job.

Step 4: Submit Medical Evidence

OWCP will review:

Your claim form

Medical reports

Test results (if needed)

Work status reports
