Normal working hours are usually 8.5 hours each day (including a 30-minute lunch break), from 0630 to 1500 each Monday through Friday (except on the legal holidays as specified in paragraph 3.1.4.1.2). Some supported Government offices have flexibility to start as early as 0600 and end as late as 1800 Monday – Friday.

3.1.4.1.1 CWS. CWS is an alternative work schedule to the traditional 5 8.5-hour workdays (which includes a 30-minute lunch break) worked per week. Under a CWS schedule, an employee completes the following schedule within a 2-week period of time: 8 weekdays are worked at 9.5 hours each day (which includes a 30-minute lunch break), 1 weekday is alternately worked at 8.5 hours (which includes a 30-minute lunch break), and 1 weekday is not worked by the employee. The result is 80 hours worked every 2 weeks, with 44 work hours 1 week and 36 work hours the other.

The Contractor may allow its employees to work a CWS schedule provided the requirements of this SOW/PWS are met. If the Contractor chooses to allow its employees to work a CWS schedule in support of this TO, any additional costs associated with the implementation of the CWS schedule vice the standard schedule are unallowable costs under this TO and will not be reimbursed by the Government. Additionally, the CWS schedule shall not prevent contractor employees from providing necessary staffing and services coverage as required by the

Government to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR)/Alternate Contracting Officer’s Representative (ACOR).

3.1.4.1.2 Holidays. The Government observes the Federal holidays identified on the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) website: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/federal-holidays/#url=Overview.

3.1.4.1.3 Installation Closure. When Federal facilities are closed by the Government or when Federal employees are officially excused from work due to a holiday or a special event, severe weather, a security threat, or any other Government facility-related problem that prevents Federal personnel from working at the Government facility, contractor personnel assigned to work at that facility shall follow their parent company’s policies.

While generally contractor personnel may not perform work on-site at a Government facility without oversight from Federal personnel, in very limited circumstances, work being performed by contractor personnel may be deemed mission essential and performance of such mission essential work may be authorized to continue at the Government facility despite the facility being otherwise closed for normal operations. The circumstances permitting work being performed by contractor personnel to be deemed mission essential are extremely limited and generally only apply to performance of efforts related to public health, safety, or matters related to national security. The COR and cognizant Contracting Officer (KO) must concur with any determination that work being performed by contractor personnel is mission essential.

3.1.7 Management of Contractor Personnel. The Government will neither supervise contractor employees nor control the method by which the Contractor performs the required tasks. Under no circumstances will the Government assign tasks to, or prepare work schedules for, individual contractor employees. The Contractor shall manage its employees and guard against any actions that are of the nature of personal services or actions that give the perception of personal services.

3.1.8 Transition-Out Plan.
