A psychiatric condition is accepted under FECA only if a qualified mental health professional diagnoses an emotional condition and provides a rationalized opinion that it was directly caused or substantially aggravated by specific, substantiated incidents or conditions of federal employment — not by general job stress or properly conducted personnel actions.
If you are pursuing such a claim, almost all successful claimants use an attorney or experienced representative who specializes in federal workers’ compensation, because the medical and factual causation burdens are extremely high.
. Medical Causation Requirements for Establishing a Psychological DSM-5 Diagnosis for a Federal Employee Work-Related Injury
Under FECA, a psychological condition (e.g., PTSD, major depressive disorder, or anxiety disorder per DSM-5 criteria) qualifies as a compensable "injury" if it arises out of and in the course of employment (5 U.S.C. § 8101(5); FECA PM Part 2, Chapter 2-0200). Emotional/psychiatric claims are scrutinized closely due to their subjective nature, and OWCP applies the Lillian Cutler criteria from ECAB precedent (28 ECAB 125 (1976)) to establish eligibility.
