OWCP education

Understand the system before it frustrates you.

Federal workers’ compensation is not intuitive, and most people meet it for the first time on their worst week. These short videos explain how it actually works.

Awaiting content

The video library goes here. Kevin: send the YouTube links you want featured, in the order you want them, with a one-line description each. They will appear as a grid of players. Videos are embedded through youtube-nocookie.com, so no tracking cookie is set unless a visitor actually presses play.

Good topics to cover

  • What OWCP is, and who it covers
  • Filing a claim: the forms and the order they go in
  • Why claims get denied, and what to do about it
  • What a treating physician actually needs to document
  • What your union can help with, and where that help ends

Still have a question?

If your question is not answered by a video, ask it directly. We would rather answer a question early than have someone give up on a claim they were entitled to.
