Every day, TSA employees are on the front-line protecting millions of airline passengers. They also work at border crossings and many other key posts. Whether you’re a frontline agent, investigator, administrator, or other TSA employee, WAEPA may be right for you.

WAEPA (Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies, Inc.) was formed during World War II. We are a nonprofit entirely focused on life insurance policies and other benefits that make a difference in the federal service. TSA employees are welcome to us.

No matter where in the world the federal service takes you, WAEPA benefits will always be there. We are a popular FEGLI alternative available today: Prospective members quickly discover that, based on their age, they often qualify for substantially lower premiums than FEGLI can offer.
