Required Line of Duty Act Training Covers Key Benefits
October 2024
The Line of Duty Act (LODA) provides benefits to state employees, local government employees and volunteers who hold specified hazardous duty positions.
State law requires employers to train LODA-eligible employees on these benefits and to provide guidance on how to apply for benefits. The first training must happen within 30 days of the employee’s hire date and then every two years thereafter.
The LODA Overview for Participants presentation satisfies this training requirement. You can direct employees to the LODA website to watch the recorded presentation or you can play it for a group of employees.

Encourage 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.
