2-0700-20 Gratuity<br />

20. Gratuity from Employing Agency<br />

Public Law 104-208 authorized payment <strong>of</strong> a gratuity not to exceed $10,000 to survivors <strong>of</strong><br />

employees who died in the line <strong>of</strong> duty on or after August 2, 1990. These payments are<br />

made by employing agencies, not the OWCP. The payments do not constitute dual benefits,<br />

and no election is required. However, any burial and administrative expenses paid by the<br />

OWCP are deducted from the entitlement. CEs will therefore need to advise employing<br />

agencies <strong>of</strong> the amounts <strong>of</strong> burial and administrative expenses paid by the OWCP when<br />

requested to do so in particular cases.<br />
