This Human Trafficking Affidavit is a compliance document required by Pinellas County, Florida for the Parking Management System Request for Proposal. The affidavit requires contractors to attest under penalty of perjury that they do not use coercion for labor or services as defined in Florida Statutes Section 787.06(13). The document must be executed by an authorized representative of the contractor and notarized before a notary public. The form includes fields for the contractor's name, the authorized representative's signature and printed name, Federal Work Authorization User Identification Number, the specific Pinellas County contract name and number, the execution date, and notarization details including the notary's seal, commission expiration date, and method of acknowledgment (physical presence or online notarization). This affidavit is a mandatory compliance requirement for all bidders submitting proposals for the parking management system contract with a July 1, 2025 submission deadline.

The Human Trafficking Affidavit serves as a prerequisite certification document that all contractors must complete and submit as part of their proposal package for the Pinellas County Parking Management System contract. The affidavit requirement, combined with the Foreign Country of Concern Affidavit also mandated by the RFP, establishes baseline compliance standards that restrict participation from vendors associated with designated countries including China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, and Syria. Contractors failing to complete and properly notarize this affidavit or those unable to certify their compliance will be deemed non-responsive and ineligible for contract award.
