behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive considerations for employment
without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
(3) The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any
employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about,
discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant.
This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation
information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee's essential job functions
discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise
have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in
furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by
the employer, or is consistent with the contractor's legal duty to furnish information.
(4) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has
a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the
said labor union or workers' representatives of the contractor's commitments under this section, and shall
post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment

of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto,
and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the administering agency and the Secretary
of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
(7) In the event of the contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this
contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled, terminated,
or suspended in whole or in part and the contractor may be declared ineligible for further Government

subcontractor or vendor. The contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase
order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions
for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation
with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency, the contractor
may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
The applicant further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to its
own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work: Provided, that

Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and subcontractors with the equal
opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will
furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the
supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge
of the agency's primary responsibility for securing compliance.
The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification
subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not
demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant
to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity
clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the
Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the applicant agrees
that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the administering agency may take any or all
of the following actions: Cancel, terminate, or suspend in whole or in part this grant (contract, loan,
insurance, guarantee); refrain from extending any further assistance to the applicant under the program
with respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assurance of future compliance has
been received from such applicant; and refer the case to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal
proceedings.
B. Davis -Bacon Act, as amended (40 U.S.C. 3141-3148).
(1) Minimum wages. (i) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work
(or under the United States Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or
development of the project), will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without
subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as are permitted by
regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount of
wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at
rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of Labor which is attached
hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist
between the contractor and such laborers and mechanics. Contributions made or costs reasonably
anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under section 1(b)(2) of the Davis -Bacon Act on behalf of laborers
or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of
paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a
weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the
particular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period.
Such laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage
determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided
in §5.5(a)(4). Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated
at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the
employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is
performed. The wage determination (including any additional classification and wage rates conformed
under paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this section) and the Davis -Bacon poster (WH -1321) shall be posted at all times
by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where
it can be easily seen by the workers.

2023052 Clerk's IT Security Upgrades
(ii)(A) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including
helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract
shall be classified in conformance with the wage determination. The contracting officer shall approve an
additional classification and wage rate and fringe benefits therefore only when the following criteria have
been met:
(1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification
in the wage determination; and
(2) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and
(3) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable
relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(B) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if
known), or their representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate
(including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken
shall be sent by the contracting officer to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S.
Department of Labor, Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will
approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so
advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30 -day period that
additional time is necessary.
(C) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or
their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification and wage
rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the contracting officer shall
refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the
contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer
or will notify the contracting officer within the 30 -day period that additional time is necessary.
(D)The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to
paragraphs (a)(1)(ii) (B) or (C) of this section, shall be paid to all workers performing work in the
classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
(iii)Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or
mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor shall either
pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an
hourly cash equivalent thereof.
(iv)lf the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor
may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably
anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary
of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis -
Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate
account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.
(2) Withholding. OWNER shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized
representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor under this
contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally -assisted
contract subject to Davis -Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor,
so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and
mechanics, including apprentices, trainees, and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor
the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic,
including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of the work (or under the
United States Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of
the project), all or part of the wages required by the contract, the OWNER may, after
2023052 Clerk's IT Security Upgrades
written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to
cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have
ceased.
(3) Payrolls and basic records. (i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained
by the contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for
all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work (or under the United States Housing Act of
1937, or under the Housing Act of 1949, in the construction or development of the project). Such records
shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct
classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona
fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis -
Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid.
Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or
mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or
program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis -Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records
which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is
financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers
or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in
providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall
maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee
programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in
the applicable programs.
(ii)(A) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a
copy of all payrolls to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) if the agency is a party to the
contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the contractor will submit the payrolls to the applicant,
sponsor, or owner, as the case may be, for transmission to FEMA. The payrolls submitted shall set out
accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i), except
that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on weekly transmittals. Instead
the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee (e.g., the last
four digits of the employee's social security number). The required weekly payroll information may be
submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH -347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour
Division Web site at http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh347instr.htrn or its successor site. The prime
contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors. Contractors and
subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number and current address of each covered worker,
and shall provide them upon request to FEMA if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is
not such a party, the contractor will submit them to the applicant, sponsor, or owner, as the case may be,
for transmission to FEMA, the contractor, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for
purposes of an investigation or audit of compliance with prevailing wage requirements. It is not a violation
of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security
numbers to the prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission to the sponsoring
government agency (or the applicant, sponsor, or owner).
(B) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance," signed by the
contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons

(2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on
the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either
directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full
wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations, 29 CFR part 3;
(3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe
benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage
determination incorporated into the contract.
(C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of
Optional Form WH -347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the "Statement of Compliance"
required by paragraph (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section.
(D) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor
to civil or criminal prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of title 31 of the United States
Code.
(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this
section available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of the (write the
name of the agency) or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview
employees during working hours on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required
records or to make them available, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor,
applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment,
advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make
such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.
(4) Apprentices and trainees
(i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the
work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide
apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration, Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State
Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of
probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually
registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer
and Labor Services or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary
employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft
classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force
under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not
registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on
the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice
performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid
not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where
a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is
registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified
in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid
at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed
as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices
shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the
apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe
benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines
that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in
accordance with that determination. In the event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor
Services, or a State Apprenticeship Agency
2023052 Clerk's IT Security Upgrades
recognized by the Office, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer
be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed
until an acceptable program is approved.
(ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than
the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually
registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the
job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training
Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for
the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the
applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of
the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full
amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour
Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman
wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any
employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan
approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage
rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee
performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid
not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the
event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the
contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for
the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(iii) Equal employment opportunity. The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen under
this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order
11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
(5) Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The contractor shall comply with the
requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.

contained in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1) through (10) and such other clauses as FEMA may by appropriate instructions

subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower
tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5.
(7) Contract termination: debarment. A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be
grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as
provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
(8) Compliance with Davis -Bacon and Related Act requirements. All rulings and interpretations of
the Davis -Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by
reference in this contract.
(9) Disputes concerning labor standards. Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of
this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be
resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and
7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its
subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their
representatives.

contract.
(11) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clause
above and such other clauses as the FEMA may by appropriate instructions require, and also a clause
requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor
shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all of these
contract clauses.
(12) Breach. A breach of the contract clauses above may be grounds for termination of the
contract, and for debarment as a contractor and subcontractor as provided in 29 C.F.R. § 5.12.
D. Compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act:
(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the
contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or
permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to

at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty
hours in such workweek.

shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the
United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such
District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with
respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards, employed in violation of
the clause set forth in paragraph (1) of this section, in the sum of $10 for each calendar day on which such
individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without
payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph (1) of this section.
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The OWNER shall upon its own action
or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to
be withheld, from any moneys payable on account of work performed by the contractor or subcontractor
under any such contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other
federally -assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by
the same prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of
such contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause set
forth in paragraph (2) of this section.
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses set
forth in paragraph (1) through (4) of this section and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include
these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by
any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (1) through (4) of
