Employer Update

How does my agency satisfy the training requirement for eligible employees under the Line of Duty Act (LODA)?

Employers are required by law to provide benefit training to LODA-eligible employees. The first training must happen within 30 days of the employee's hire date and every two years thereafter. The LODA Overview for Participants presentation satisfies the training requirement. You may direct employees to the LODA website to watch the recorded presentation, or you may play it for a group of employees.

Encourage eligible employees to explore the LODA website, which includes:

• Information on eligibility and benefits.
• How to Apply for LODA Benefits online tutorial, with step-by-step instructions on filing a claim.
• LODA Participant Guide.
