Why Many Contractors Are Unaware of Their Rights
Despite being a federal law, the Defense Base Act is not widely understood among civilian contractors.
Workers often discover their entitled rights months or even years after suffering an injury overseas.
You May Still Qualify Even If the Attack Did Not Hit You Directly
One of the most common misconceptions among overseas contractors is that they must be directly struck by an explosion to qualify for a claim.
In reality, the Defense Base Act covers many types of work-related injuries connected to hostile incidents.
