Continuation of Pay

• Section Number: 10.211
• Section Name: What are the employer's responsibilities in COP cases?

    Once the employer learns of a traumatic injury sustained by an 
employee, it shall:
    (a) Provide a Form CA-1 and Form CA-16 to authorize medical care in 
accordance with Sec. 10.300. Failure to do so may mean that OWCP will 
not uphold any termination of COP by the employer.
    (b) Advise the employee of the right to receive COP, and the need to 
elect among COP, annual or sick leave or leave without pay, for any 
period of disability.
    (c) Inform the employee of any decision to controvert COP and/or 
terminate pay, and the basis for doing so.
    (d) Complete Form CA-1 and transmit it, along with all other 
available pertinent information, (including the basis for any 
controversion), to OWCP within 10 working days after receiving the 
completed form from the employee.
