3.7 H.5200.222.001 INSTRUCTIONS TO CONTRACTOR REGARDING NON-DISPLACEMENT
OF QUALIFIED WORKERS UNDER SERVICE CONTRACT LABOR STANDARS-AFFECTED
CONTRACTS (JUL 2015)
(1) Background: Service contracts and subcontracts with employees who are specifically covered by the requirements in FAR Subpart 22.12—Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers Under Service Contracts.
Applicability. FAR 52.222-17, “Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers” takes precedence, if there should be any conflict with any information in this specific contract term.
(A)(i)This special contract requirement requires successor contractors under a newly-awarded contract to offer employment on a first right of refusal to Service Contract Labor Standards -covered employees under a current contract that includes FAR 52.222-17. When a service contract (which is any contract or subcontract for services entered into by the Federal Government or its contractors that is covered in whole or in part concerning its requirement by the Service Contract Labor Standards, as amended, and its implementing regulations) succeeds a contract for performance of the same or similar services, at the same location, the successor contractor and its subcontractors are required to offer those service employees that are employed under the predecessor contract, and whose employment will be terminated as a result of the award of the successor contract, a right of first refusal of employment under the contract in positions for which they are qualified. Executive Order 13495 prohibits employment openings under the successor contract until such right of first refusal has been provided.
(ii) Method of job offer. The successor contractor shall make job offers to current contract employees (who are covered by the Service Contract Act) as specified herein. The current contract is held by: N/A.
A job offer made by a successor contractor must be a bona fide express offer of employment on the contract.
Each bona fide express offer made to a qualified service employee on the predecessor contract must have a stated time limit of not less than ten (10) days for an employee response. Prior to the expiration of the 10-day period, the contractor is prohibited from offering employment on the contract to any other person, subject to the exceptions at FAR 22.1203-5. Any question concerning an employee’s qualifications shall be decided based upon the individual’s education and employment history, with particular emphasis on the employee’s experience on the predecessor contract, and a contractor may utilize employment screening processes only when such processes are provided for by the contracting agency, are conditions of the service contract, and are consistent with Executive Order 13495. An offer of employment will be presumed to be bona fide even if it is not for a position similar to the one the employee previously held, but is one for which the employee is qualified, and even if it is subject to different employment terms and conditions, including changes to pay or benefits.
(iii) Exceptions to Job Offer requirements. (a) A successor contractor or its subcontractors are not required to offer employment to any service employee of the predecessor contractor who (1) Will be retained by the predecessor contractor. (2) The successor contractor or any of its subcontractors reasonably believes, based on the particular service employee’s past performance, has failed to perform suitably on the job. (See 29 CFR 9.12(c)(4) for regulatory provisions addressing circumstances in which this exception would or would not be appropriate.) (b) A successor contractor or its subcontractors may employ under the contract any of its current service employees who (1) have worked for the successor contractor or its subcontractors for at least three months immediately preceding the commencement of the successor contract, and (2) would otherwise face lay-off or discharge. (c) The successor contractor bears the responsibility of demonstrating the appropriateness of claiming any of the preceding exceptions and the exemption listed at FAR 22.1203- 2(a)(5) involving nonfederal work and must provide notice of such with its quote to the Government.
(B)(i) The predecessor contractor is required to furnish to the contracting officer a certified list of the names of all service employees working under the contract and its subcontracts at the time the list is submitted.
The certified service employee lists must be provided not less than thirty (30) days before completion of the contract. The certified list must also contain anniversary dates of employment of each service employee under the contract and subcontracts for services. The information on this list is the same as that on the seniority list required by paragraph (n) of the clause at FAR 52.222-41, “Service Contract Labor Standards.”
If there are no changes to the workforce before the predecessor contract is completed, then the predecessor contractor is not required to submit a revised list 10 days prior to completion of performance and the requirements of FAR 52.222-41(n) are met. When there are changes to the workforce after submission of the 30-day list, the predecessor contractor shall submit a revised certified list not less than ten (10) days prior to performance completion. The Contractor shall submit such list to Shawnna.Sims@tsa.dhs.gov.
(b) Immediately upon receipt of the certified service employee list but not before contract award, the contracting officer will provide the certified service employee list to the successor contractor.
(ii) Contractor Notification to Service Employees. (a) The predecessor contractor shall provide written notice, the same or substantially the same as the model notice provided under Appendix B of Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 9 to service employees of their possible right to an offer of employment with the successor contractor. The written notice shall be (1) Posted in a conspicuous place at the worksite;
or (2) Delivered to the service employees individually. If such delivery is via e-mail, the notification must result in an electronic delivery receipt or some other reliable confirmation that the intended recipient received the notice.
(2) Enforcement methods. Contractors are hereby notified that all specified enforcement methods to ensure contractor compliance with these requirements may be applied at the discretion of the Contracting Officer and as such may be specified under direction from the U.S. Department of Labor.

The Contractor is not authorized to continue work on those item(s) beyond that point. The total amount payable by the mailto:(To
Government in the event of such termination of those contract line item(s) identified in paragraph (a) above includes costs, profit, and estimated/negotiated termination settlement costs for those item(s). The Government will not be obligated in any event to reimburse the Contractor in excess of the amount allotted to the line items of the contract regardless of anything to the contrary in any other clause, such as the clause entitled “Termination for Convenience of the Government” or paragraph (l) entitled “Termination for the Government’s Convenience” of FAR 52.212-4, “Commercial Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items.”
(d) Notwithstanding paragraph (h) of this requirement, the Contractor will notify the Contracting Officer in writing at least __thirty__ days prior to the date when, in the Contractor’s best judgment, the work will reach the point at which the total amount payable by the Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract for performance of the applicable item(s). The notification will state (1) the estimated date when that point will be reached and (2) an estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance. The notification will also advise the Contracting Officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that will be required for the timely performance of the item(s) funded pursuant to this contract.
