SUMMARY OF CHANGES

The following have been added by full text:

The DBA Insurance is Not Separately Priced but the Offoreror must provide documentation they have the insurance coverage at the time of proposal submission.

Navigate to the U.S. Department of Labor website (https://www.dol.gov/agencies/owcp/dlhwc/ExplainingDBA) for further guidance.

The following is from the DBA website.

An employer who fails to secure the payment of compensation under the Act through an insurance carrier or to obtain authorization to be self-insured may face criminal prosecution and be subject to imprisonment and/or fines. If the employer is a corporation, the president, secretary and treasurer can be prosecuted individually and may be personally and severally liable for compensation and other benefits.

If the employer is not insured, an injured employee also may elect to either claim compensation under the Act or sue for damages for his/her injury under general tort law. In such a lawsuit, the employer may not rely on the customary tort defenses that the employee is prevented from recovery by (1) his/her own contribution to the cause of the injury or (2) his/her own negligence or wrongdoing.

The Secretary of Labor may waive application of the Defense Base Act with respect to any contract, work location, or class of employees upon the written request of the head of any department or other agency of the United States. It is Department of Labor policy that waivers do not apply to citizens or legal residents of the U.S. or to employees hired in the U.S. In addition, once granted, the waiver is only valid if alternative workers' compensation benefits are provided to the waived employees pursuant to applicable local law. If there are no local workers' compensation laws, the waiver has no effect and local and foreign nationals working under a U.S. contract are covered under the

DBA.

The request for waiver can be made by submitting a request for DBA waiver package, by the head of a department or agency of the United States government. The package can be mailed to the Director, OWCP, U.S. Department of Labor, OWCP, Division of Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Rm C- 4319, Washington, DC 20210. The package can also be sent by e-mail to DLHWC-Public@dol.gov.
