About this file

This is a Worker Protection and Investment Certification Form required by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for contractors and grantees bidding on state contracts, including the Department of Corrections' Access Control Software Update project at SCI Benner. The form mandates that all contractors certify compliance with Pennsylvania's Unemployment Compensation Law, Workers' Compensation Law, and applicable state labor and workforce safety laws. Compliance requirements encompass thirteen specific areas including the Construction Workplace Misclassification Act, Employment of Minors Child Labor Act, Minimum Wage Act, Prevailing Wage Act, Equal Pay Law, and various other employment-related statutes. The certifying official must be duly authorized to execute the certification on behalf of the contractor or grantee and must provide their signature, date, printed name, and title along with the contractor or grantee name.

Pennsylvania law establishes substantial penalties for false certifications, including immediate contract termination and three-year ineligibility to bid on future Commonwealth contracts under 62 Pa. C.S. 531 regarding debarment or suspension. Contractors must also report any changes in compliance status to the purchasing agency immediately upon discovery. The certification is subject to penalties under 18 Pa. C.S. 4904 for unsworn falsification to authorities, creating legal liability for misrepresentation. This form was published on February 7, 2022, and serves as a prerequisite for contract award on all Commonwealth of Pennsylvania procurement opportunities.
