No DBA cover, no contract.
Defense Base Act cover for employees on US government contracts overseas — a contractual requirement we place, evidence, and manage for you.
The US Defense Base Act requires contractors and subcontractors on US government contracts overseas to provide workers’ compensation-style cover for their employees. Without it, the contract does not start.
We place compliant cover, evidence it for your contracts, and manage claims across every assignment.
