  40. What is OWCP doing? • Employee Express – Claimant Query System rolled out to EEX users • District Office targeting of agencies • Improvements to the SHARE website • Training sessions and seminars

  41. For SHARE to succeed, we must do both: • Reduce the number of serious injuries • Get people back to work • It’s a joint Safety and Workers’ Comp. activity, and agencies have to get both right

  42. LPD “Musts” • Government as a whole can’t meet SHARE LPD goal if ALL AGENCIES DON’T COMMIT AND IMPROVE • Minor injures that aren’t accommodated become “SERIOUS” – RTW is key • Goal 4 of SHARE can be met in 2006 but requires intense effort now

  43. FECA Reform (Redux) • Applies to new claims only. • Strengthens the program while still maintaining generous benefits. • Projected savings of $591.6 million over the next 10 years.
