The Contractor shall submit evidence of compliance with this requirement upon request by the Government. The rates/ prices in Section B and Section J, Exhibit S shall include all such costs.

If, under the law of any jurisdiction, the Government is considered directly or subsidiarily liable for the payment of any amount to any party on the basis of Contractor’s breach of labor or employment laws, or in the event an employee of the Contractor names the Government in such an action, the Government will be entitled to reimbursement from the Contractor of all expenses incurred in any legal action initiated regarding any wages, benefits, allowances, premiums, or any other labor claims, as well as the indirect costs entailed by the legal action – including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees, court costs, and employee time. The Contractor is obliged to reimburse the Government of all such expenses within thirty days of receipt of notification of expenses incurred.

Offerors shall include in their pricing, a reasonable accommodation for National Minimum Wage (NMW), Collective Bargaining Agree ment (CBA), or any type of Union Terms increases that have historical data provided by the host country and/or supporting resources. For example, if Paramaribo can be identified as having a consistent percentage increase, on average, which shall be accommodated within Exhibit M and Exhibit S pricing. Failure to accommodate a percentage increase within Exhibit M and Exhibit S at the time of proposal will result in any future Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) requests being denied by the Government.

Should the Offeror make a reasonable effort to accommodate the regular annual or biannual increase and a higher increase is made by the host country which surpasses the increase provided on Exhibit M and Exhibit S, the Government will consider an EPA request.
