(a) ACV volunteers are covered by the Federal Employees Compensation Act. This provides a broad-based workmen's compensation-type coverage for volunteer job-related accidents and occupational sickness.
(b) ACV volunteers are also Federal employees for the purpose of the Federal Tort Claims Act. Any third-party claims for injury or damage to property arising out of the volunteer's job-related activities will be treated as claims against the United States.
