Clause 3-175, Fair Labor Standards Act and Service Contract Labor Standards – Price Adjustment

(Multi-Year and Option Contracts)

Fair Labor Standards Act and Service Contract Labor Standards – Price Adjustment (Multi-Year and

Option Contracts) (MAR 2019)

(a)This clause applies to both contracts subject to area prevailing wage determinations and

contracts subject to collective bargaining agreements.

(b)The contractor warrants that the prices in this contract do not include any allowance for

any contingency to cover increased costs for which adjustment is provided under this clause. (c)The

wage determination, issued under the Service Contract Labor Standards statute (41 U.S.C. § 6701 et

seq.), by the Administrator, Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S.

Department of Labor, current on the anniversary date of a multi-year contract or the beginning of

each renewal option period, will apply to this contract. If no such determination has been made

applicable to this contract, then the federal minimum wage as established by section 6(a)(1) of the

Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, (29 U.S.C. § 206) current on the anniversary date of

a multi-year contract or the beginning of each renewal option period, will apply to this contract.

(d)The contract price, contract unit price labor rates, or fixed hourly labor rates will be

adjusted to reflect the contractor's actual increase or decrease in applicable wages and fringe

benefits to the extent that the increase is made to comply with or the decrease is voluntarily made

by the contractor as a result of:

(1)the Department of Labor wage determination applicable on the anniversary date of the multi-year

contract, or at the beginning of the renewal option period. For example, the prior year wage

determination required a minimum wage rate of $4.00 per hour.

The contractor chose to pay $4.10. The new wage determination increases the minimum rate to $4.50

per hour. Even if the contractor voluntarily increases the rate to $4.75 per hour, the allowable

price adjustment is $.40 per hour;

(2)an increased or decreased wage determination otherwise applied to the contract by operation of

law; or

(3)an amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 that is enacted after award of this

contract, affects the minimum wage, and becomes applicable to this contract under law.

(e)Any adjustment will be limited to increases or decreases in wages and fringe benefits as

described in paragraph (d) of this clause, and the accompanying increases or decreases in social

security and unemployment taxes and workers' compensation insurance, but shall not otherwise

include any amount for general and administrative costs, overhead, or profit. (f)The contractor

shall notify the contracting officer of any increase claimed under this clause within 30 days after

receiving a new wage determination unless this notification period is extended in writing by the

contracting officer. The contractor shall promptly notify the contracting officer of any decrease

under this clause, but nothing in the clause will preclude the government from asserting a claim

within the period permitted by law. The notice shall contain a statement of the amount claimed and

the change in fixed hourly rates (if this is a time-and-materials or labor-hour contract), any

relevant supporting data, including payroll records, that the contracting officer may reasonably

require. Upon agreement of the parties, the contract price or contract unit price labor rates will

be modified in writing. The contractor shall continue performance pending agreement on or

determination of any such adjustment and its effective date.

(g)The contracting officer or an authorized representative will have access to and the right to

examine any directly pertinent books, documents, papers and records of the contractor until the

expiration of 3 years after final payment under the contract.

(end)

7-65 - Protection of Judiciary Buildings, Equipment, and Vegetation – APR. 2013

The contractor shall use reasonable care to avoid damaging buildings, equipment, and vegetation

(such as trees, shrubs, and grass) on the judiciary facility. If the contractor's failure to use

reasonable care causes damage to any of this property, the contractor shall replace or repair the

damage at no expense to the judiciary, as the contracting officer directs. If the contractor fails

or refuses to make such repair or replacement, the contractor shall be liable for the cost, which

may be deducted from the contract price.
