What is the Defense Base Act?

The Defense Base Act (DBA) is a federal workers' compensation program that provides benefits to employees working overseas on U.S. military bases or under a U.S. government contract for public works or for national defense. Enacted in 1941, the DBA ensures that civilian employees, including those serving as military contractors, are entitled to medical treatment and compensation for injuries or disabilities sustained while working abroad in the service of the United States. The Act covers a wide range of employees, including but not limited to construction workers, security personnel, and support staff. It is an essential component of ensuring the well-being and rights of individuals contributing to U.S. defense efforts in foreign locations. Attorneys specializing in DBA cases, such as Karl F. von Reuter, play a crucial role in representing injured workers and helping them navigate the complexities of the compensation process.
