About this file
This is a Nondiscrimination/Sexual Harassment Clause document applicable to the Wormleysburg Borough June 2026 Rupley Park Improvements Project, establishing compliance requirements for grantees and contractors engaged in project work. The clause mandates that all grantees maintain compliance with federal, state, and local nondiscrimination and sexual harassment laws throughout the agreement term, prohibiting discrimination in hiring, employment, service provision, and subcontractor selection based on race, gender, creed, color, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or violations of the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act. Grantees must establish and maintain written nondiscrimination and sexual harassment policies that explicitly state sexual harassment will not be tolerated and that violators will be disciplined. These policies must be posted conspicuously in work areas or provided electronically to employees annually. Grantees are required to notify the Commonwealth immediately of any actions or occurrences that would constitute violations of these provisions and must include identical nondiscrimination and sexual harassment provisions in all subgrant agreements, contracts, and subcontracts with subgrantees, contractors, and subcontractors.
The Commonwealth reserves the right to cancel or terminate the agreement and forfeit all money due under it for violations of these nondiscrimination and sexual harassment provisions, and may initiate debarment or suspension proceedings and place violating grantees in the Contractor Responsibility File. Grantees must furnish employment documents, EEO-1 reports, and provide access to books, records, and accounts upon request by the Commonwealth to verify compliance. The clause also protects employees' rights to participate in labor activities under the Public Employee Relations Act, Pennsylvania Labor Relations Act, and National Labor Relations Act, prohibiting discrimination based on such participation or refusal to participate.
