PUBLIC WORKS EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION ACT

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania enacted Act 127 of 2012, known as the Public Works Employment Verification Act (‘the Act’) which requires all public work contractors and subcontractors to utilize the Federal Government’s E-Verify system to ensure that all employees performing work on public work projects are authorized to work in the United States.

The Department defines a “Public Work” to be construction, reconstruction, demolition, alteration and/or repair work other than maintenance work, done under contract and paid for in whole or in part out of the funds of a public body where the estimated cost of the total project is in excess of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) but shall not include work performed under a rehabilitation or manpower training program.

The Department of General Services’ Public Works Employment Verification Compliance Program is responsible for the administration, education and enforcement of the Public Works Employment Verification Act 127 of 2012. It provides contractors and subcontractors with educational outreach, conducts investigations when complaints are received and random audits to ensure compliance with the requirements of this Act.

The Contract Documents are complementary and what is called for by any one shall be as binding as if called for by all. The intention of the documents is to include all labor and materials, equipment and transportation necessary for the proper execution of the work. The Engineer will decide as to the meaning or intent of any portion of the specifications or plans, where the same may be found obscure or in dispute, he shall have the right to correct any errors or omissions therein. All work that may be called for in the specifications and not shown on the plans, or shown on the plans and not called for in the specifications, shall be executed and furnished by the Contractor as if described in both ways; and should any incidental work or material be required which is not denoted in the specifications or plans, either directly or indirectly, but which is nevertheless necessary for proper carrying out of the intent thereof, the Contractor is to understand the same to be implied and required and shall perform all such work and furnish all such material as fully as if they were partially delineated or described, and without extra cost to the Owner.

006110-2

ARTICLE 5 - CHANGES IN THE WORK

The Engineer shall have the right to make such alterations in plans or in the character of the work as may be considered necessary or desirable from time to time to complete materially the original plans and specifications, provided such alterations do not change materially the original plans and specifications, and such alterations shall not be considered a waiver of any conditions of the Contract nor to invalidate any of the provisions thereof.

Should such alterations in the plans result in an increase or decrease in the quantity of work to be performed, without change in character, Contractor shall accept payment in full of the Contract unit price for the actual quantities of work done. Should such alterations in the character of the work be productive of increased cost or result in decreased cost to Contractor, a fair and equitable sum therefore shall be agreed upon in writing by Contractor and Engineer and approval by Owner before such work is begun, and shall be added to or deducted from as the case may be, the contract price, where a change involves the omission and addition of similar work, such work omitted shall be deducted from that added before any profit is computed. No allowance will be made for anticipated profits.

ARTICLE 6 - EXTRA WORK

Work and materials of a character for which no price is named in the Agreement shall be considered as extra work which shall be done by the Contractor only upon written order signed by the Engineer, at a price to be previously agreed upon in writing by the Contractor and the Engineer and approved by the Owner.

No bill or claim for extra work or materials shall be allowed or paid unless the doing of such work or furnishing of such extra materials shall have been authorized in writing by the Engineer.

If the Contractor shall proceed with such work after receiving the written authority therefore, as hereinbefore provided, then such extra work shall be controlled by all of the terms and provisions of this Contract, subject to such prices as are agreed upon and fixed by the Engineer and the Owner as hereinbefore provided.

If the Contractor shall fail or decline to perform such extra work as authorized in writing as aforesaid, the Owner may then arrange for the performance of the work in any manner he may see fit, the same as if the Contract had not been executed and the Contractor shall not interfere with such performance of the work, or the Owner may withhold payment of all estimated work until the Contractor's refusal or failure is eliminated. Any such extra cost to the Owner by reason of the Contractor's failure or refusal to perform such extra work shall be deducted from the amount due to Contractor under the terms of Contract.

ARTICLE 7 - FORCE ACCOUNT WORK

All extra work done on a force account basis will be paid for in the following manner:

For all labor, trucks, truck drivers, operators and foreman in direct charge of the specific operation, the Contractor shall receive the current local rate of wage, to be agreed upon in writing before starting such work, for each and every hour that said labor and/or trucks, truck drivers, operators and foremen are actually engaged on such work, to which shall be added an amount equal to 10% of the sum thereof.

For all materials used, the Contractor shall receive the actual cost of such materials including freight charges as shown by original receipted bills, to which cost shall be added a sum equal to 15%.

For any machinery or equipment, except small tools and equipment for which no rental is allowed, which may be deemed necessary or desirable to use, the Engineer, with the approval of the Owner, shall allow the Contractor a reasonable rental price for each and every hour that said machinery or equipment is in use on such work. Such rental price shall include fuel and lubrication and shall be agreed upon in writing by the Contractor and the Engineer and approved by the Owner before such work is begun.

Said statements shall be filed not later than the twentieth day of the month following that in which the work was actually performed and shall include all labor charges, etc., and materials charges insofar as they can be verified. Should the Contractor refuse to prosecute the work as directed or to submit his claim as required, then the Engineer may withhold payment of all estimates until the Contractor's refusal or failure is eliminated.

ARTICLE 8 - EXAMINATION AND APPROVAL

All work and materials shall be at all times subject to the examination of and approval by the Engineer or his duly authorized representatives.

ARTICLE 9 - DEFECTIVE WORK AND MATERIALS

Defective work and materials may be condemned by the Engineer at any time before the final acceptance of the work. The Contractor shall remove at his own expense any work or material condemned and shall rebuild and replace the same without extra cost. Previous examination will not relieve the Contractor from the responsibility for good work and materials whether overlooked by the Engineer or caused by damage from any source whatsoever.

Failure to conform with the above may be cause to discontinue the work, and Engineer and Owner in his or its discretion may either remedy the work or may have Contract completed by others and charge cost thereof as money paid Contractor.

The equipment used on any portion of the work shall be such that no injury to adjacent property or highways will result from its use.

The Contractor shall employ such superintendent, foremen and workmen as are careful and competent, and the Engineer may demand the dismissal of any person employed by the Contractor in, about or upon the work, who shall be guilty of misconduct or be incompetent or negligent in the due and proper performance of duties, or who neglects or refuses to comply with the directions given, and such person shall not be employed again thereon without the written consent of the Engineer. Should the Contractor continue to employ or again employ such person, the Owner may withhold all estimates which are or may become due, or the Engineer may suspend the work, until such orders are complied with.

The Superintendent shall not be changed except with the consent of the Engineer, unless the superintendent proves to be unsatisfactory to the Contractor and/or ceases to be in his employ. Superintendent shall represent the Contractor in his absence, and all directions given to him shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor.

Other important directions shall be confirmed in writing to the Contractor. Other directions shall be confirmed on written request in each case.
