EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION SERVICES

Department of Labor Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs Division of Energy Employees Occupational

Illness Compensation

PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Public Law 106-398, the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act (EEOICPA) of 2000, as amended (the Act), established a program to compensate nuclear weapons program workers who suffered adverse health effects from exposure to beryllium, ionizing radiation, and other hazards in the course of their nuclear weapons program-related work. The President, in an Executive Order dated December 7, 2000, assigned program implementation responsibilities to various executive departments. The Fiscal Year 2005 National Defense Authorization Act, signed by President Bush on October 28, 2004, abolished Part D of the EEOICPA administered by the Department of Energy (DOE) and replaced it with a new system of federal payments called Part E to be administered by the Department of Labor (DOL).

The DOL’s Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP), Division of Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation (DEEOIC) is responsible for adjudicating claims associated with Part B and Part E of the Act. According to 20 CFR §30.105 under the DOL EEOICPA Regulations, the DOE has the responsibility for verifying employment at covered DOE facilities.

The DOL verification process includes: (1) establishing that a contractual relationship existed between the covered facility and the identified employer (contractor); (2) verifying that the claimant was an employee of a covered employer during a specific time period; and (3) placing the claimant on site at the covered facility.

Occasionally, DOE or the corporate verifier does not have records sufficient to verify employment. Therefore, it becomes necessary for DOL to search other resources for verification. Alternative methods for employment verification include: the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) electronic database, the claimant’s personal records, the Social Security Administration, affidavits from former co-workers of the claimant, and union records.

The DOL receives claims from many employees who worked in jobs related to construction or trades (e.g.

construction workers, electricians, plumbers, etc.). Due to these types of jobs usually being associated with a subcontract, employment is extremely difficult to verify using the DOL’s current resources. Hence, DOL has found the use of union records to be a tremendous assistance in the verification process. Some contractors have access to relevant union, pension, or other records that could assist the DOL in the verification of employment.

1.1 OBJECTIVE: The objective of this effort is to obtain verification of former employees’ involvement in nuclear weapons production. Specifically, to obtain documentation that supports: 1) evidence of employment (e.g. personnel records, union records, pension funds, health records, time and attendance records, etc.); 2) evidence that the employer was a contractor at a covered facility (contractual documents); and 3) evidence of employment on site at the covered facility (e.g. punch cards, sign in and out logs, security records).

Additionally, the contractor must develop and maintain a database that tracks the evidence supporting contractor/subcontractor relationship with the DOE.

1.2 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: The period of performance shall be for one (1) Base Period of 12 months and four (4) 12-month option periods.

1.3 QUALITY CONTROL: The contractor shall develop and maintain an effective quality control program to ensure services are performed in accordance with this Statement of Work (SOW). The contractor’s quality control program is the means by which work is reviewed to ensure compliance with the requirements of the contract. The Quality Control (QC) Plan is to be delivered with the contractor’s proposal. After acceptance of the quality control plan the contractor shall receive the contracting officer’s acceptance in writing of any proposed change to the QC plan.

1.4 QUALITY ASSURANCE: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the performance standards.

1.4 RECOGNIZED HOLIDAYS: The contractor is not required to perform services on the following Federal holidays:

New Year’s Day Labor Day Martin Luther King Jr.’s Birthday Columbus Day President’s Day Veteran’s Day Memorial Day Thanksgiving Day Independence Day Christmas Day

1.5 HOURS OF OPERATION: The contractor is responsible for conducting business, between the hours of 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday thru Friday except Federal holidays or when the Government facility is closed due to local or national emergencies, administrative closings, or similar Government directed facility closings. For other than firm fixed price contracts, the contractor will not be reimbursed when the government facility is closed for the above reasons. The Contractor must at all times maintain an adequate workforce for the uninterrupted performance of all tasks defined within this SOW when the Government facility is not closed for the above reasons. When hiring personnel, the Contractor shall keep in mind that the stability and continuity of the workforce are essential.

1.6 PLACE OF PERFORMANCE: The work to be performed under this contract will be performed at the contractor’s facility or field offices.

1.7 TYPE OF CONTRACT: The government anticipates a single award indefinite delivery indefinite quantity contract vehicle with firm fixed price task orders.

1.8 SECURITY REQUIREMENTS: Contractor staffs are required to conform to DOL's security and privacy requirements as described below.

1.8.1 The Contractor shall comply with the Computer Security Act of 1987. All products and deliverables developed under this SOW shall comply with DOL Computer Security guidelines and the guidelines contained in OMB Circular A-130.

1.8.2 The Contractor will be responsible for ensuring compliance by its employees with the security regulations of DOL and other Government installations or Contractor facilities where work is performed under this Contract. This includes the safekeeping and display of a Government-provided photo ID badge for employees of the Contractor and any subcontractors while these employees are in federally owned or leased property as described in Section 4, Place of Performance. The Contractor will ensure the security of all DOL property, building ID badges, key cards and standard keys issued to Contractor staff. For employees leaving the project permanently or for an extended period of time, the Contractor will return all badges, property, key cards, parking placards, and keys the same day the employees leave the project.

1.8.3 Background Investigations

DOL’s Enterprise Architecture data and work environment is considered sensitive but unclassified. DOL is required under the Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12 “Policy for a Common Identification Standard for Federal Employees and Contractors” to perform a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) for Contractors. The NACI is a brief form of background investigation that is conducted through the Office of Personnel Management.

1.8.4 Privacy

Portions of information disclosed during the performance of this task are protected by the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974; therefore, all personnel assigned to this Contract are required to take proper precautions to protect the information from disclosure.

A letter of designation issued to the COTR, a copy of which is sent to the Contractor, states the responsibilities and limitations of the COTR, especially with regard to changes in cost or price, estimates or changes in delivery dates. The COTR is not authorized to change any of the terms and conditions of the resulting contract.

1.10 PERSONNEL: The Contractor and key personnel will have extensive institutional knowledge of the current and historical operations performed at the DOE sites–the work being performed, the occupations related to construction or trades and the time period the contractors were on site, as well as DOE medical screening programs and the records they may have, and any other sources of information to identify subcontractors.
