HUD or i ts designee shall upon i ts own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld f rom the contractor under this contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other Federally-assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevail ing wage requirements, which is held by the same prime contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, t rainees and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, t rainee or helper, employed or working on the site of the work, all or part of the wages required by the contract, HUD or i ts designee may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased. HUD or i ts designee may, after written notice to the contractor, disburse such amounts withheld for and on account of the contractor or subcontractor to the respective employees to whom they are due. The Comptroller General shall make such disbursements in the case of direct Davis-Bacon Act contracts.
3. (i) Payrolls and basic records. Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during the course of the work preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at the site of the work. Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona f ide f ringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in Section l(b)(2 )(B) of the Davis-bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. W henever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5. 5 ( a)(1 )(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in Section l (b)(2 )(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is f inancially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or t rainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certi f ication of t rainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and t rainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB Control Numbers 1215 -0140 and 1215- 0017.)
(ii) ( a) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a copy of all payrolls to HUD or i ts designee i f the agency is a party to the contract, but i f the agency is not such a party, the contractor will submit the payrolls to the applicant sponsor, or owner, as the case may be, for t ransmission to HUD or i ts designee. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5. 5( a)( 3)(i) except that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on weekly t ransmittals.
Instead the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee (e. g., the last four digits of the employee’ s social security number). The required weekly payroll information may be submitted in any form desired.
Optional Form W H-347 is available for this purpose f rom the W age and Hour Division W eb site at http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh347instr.htm or i ts successor site. The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors.
Contractors and subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number and current address of each covered worker, and shall provide them upon request to HUD or i ts designee i f the agency is a party to the contract, but i f the agency is not such a party, the contractor will submit the payrolls to the appl icant sponsor, or owner, as the case may be, for t ransmission to HUD or i ts designee, the contractor, or the W age and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or audit of compliance with prevail ing wage requirements. I t is not a violation of this subparagraph for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security numbers to the prime contractor for i ts own records, without weekly submission to HUD or i ts designee. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB Control Number 1215 -0149.)
(b) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a “Statement of Compliance,” signed by the contractor or subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the contract and shall certify the fol lowing:
(1) That the payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under 29 CFR 5. 5 (a)(3)(i i), the appropriate information is being maintained under 29 CFR
5. 5( a)(3)(i), and that such information is correct and complete;
ref. Handbook 1344.1 Page 3 of 5
(2) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and t rainee) employed on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly f rom the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set forth in 29 CFR Part 3;
(3) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and f ringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.
(c) The weekly submission of a properly executed certi f ication set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH- 347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance” required by subparagraph A.
3.(i i)(b).
(d) The falsif ication of any of the above certi f ications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18 and Section 231 of Title 31 of the United States Code.
(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under subparagraph A. 3.(i) available for inspection, copying, or t ranscription by authorized representatives of HUD or i ts designee or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job. I f the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, HUD or i ts designee may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5. 12.
4. Apprentices and Trainees.
(i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona f ide apprenticeship program registered with the U. S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or i f a person is employed in his or her f i rst 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certif ied by the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services or a State Apprenticeship Agency ( where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft c lassification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker l isted on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classif ication of work actually performed.
In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which i ts program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman’ s hourly rate) specified in the contractor’ s or subcontractor’ s registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice’ s level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid f ringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. I f the apprenticeship program does not specify f ringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of f ringe benefits l isted on the wage determination for the applicable classif ication. I f the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, f ringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to util ize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5. 16, t rainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant ‘ , to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certi f ication by the U. S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of t rainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every t rainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the t rainee’ s level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination.
Trainees shall be paid f ringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the t rainee program. I f the t rainee program does not mention f ringe benefits, t rainees shall be paid the full amount of f ringe benefits l isted on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full f ringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee l isted on the payroll at a t rainee rate who is not registered and participating in a t raining plan approved by ref. Handbook 1344.1 Page 4 of 5 the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In addit ion, any t rainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a t raining program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to util ize t rainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(iii) Equal employment opportunity. The util ization of apprentices, t rainees and journeymen under 29 CFR Part 5 shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR Part 30.

The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower t ier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in this paragraph.

11. Complaints, Proceedings, or Testimony by Employees. No laborer or mechanic to whom the wage, salary, or other labor standards provisions of this Contract are applicable shall be discharged or in any other manner discriminated against by the Contractor or any subcontractor because such employee has f i led any complaint or instituted or caused to be instituted any proceeding or has testified or is about to testify in any proceeding under or relating to the labor standards applicable under this Contract to his employer.
