The Proposer complies with ORS 652.220 and does not unlawfully discriminate against any of Proposer’s employees in the payment of wages or other compensation for work of comparable character on the basis of an employee’s membership in a protected class. “Protected class” means a group of persons distinguished by race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, veteran status, disability or age.

The Contractor’s continuing compliance constitutes a material element of this Contract Agreement and a failure to comply constitutes a breach that entitles Agency to terminate this Contract Agreement for cause.
