- Description
- Attachemnt J.3 Attachemnt J.2 Attachemnt J.1 Solicitation Defense Base Act (42 U.S.C. 1651 "DBA".) requires federal contractors and subcontractors working outside the continental United States to provide the equivalent of workers' compensation insurance to their employees. The U.S. Government reimburses DBA insurance carriers for claims paid in connection with injuries or deaths covered by the War Hazard Compensation Act. According to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR 28.305), contracting officers must include DBA (workers' compensation) insurance in each contract approved or financed under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended (Public Law 87-195) unless the Secretary of Labor approves a waiver of coverage. Although the requirement to purchase DBA insurance does not apply to cooperative agreement and grant recipients, they are required to obtain DBA coverage if they award subcontracts to organizations that hire employees under their instruments. Notwithstanding, United States Agency for International Development (USAID) officials encourage DBA insurance for these recipients. The purpose of this award is to enter into a contract in which the contractor will be the source of Worker's Compensation Insurance as required by the Defense Base Act (DBA) for all United States Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded contracts.
