Contract Security Guard Sign In and Sign Out The vendor's employees shall sign-in when reporting for work and shall sign-out when leaving using the DHS Form 139 “Record of Time of Arrival and Departure Contract Guarding Duty Register”. Security guards who provide relief will sign in and out at each post visited. The Government shall specify the on-site registration points and the Vendor must use those points for this purpose. Vendor employees working on TAS/SAS posts will record "TAS/AGS" in the "Column e” “NOTE”. Relief security guards shall sign in and out at each post and indicate Relief by placing an “R” in Column “e” Next to the post number. Visiting supervisors and vendor QC personnel are required to sign in red and will write SUPV / QC in column “e” next to post number. IRS CORs will also use red and place “IRS” in column “e” next to post number. Black ink will only be used for guards who are in the productive role. No other color of ink is permitted.

Each successively lower line on the Form 139 must be completed in chronological order without exception. Lines may not be left blank among signatures in any period. No more than one line may be used to enter a calendar date for separating individual workdays.

Erasures, obliterations, superimposed or double entries of any type on any one line are unacceptable and will not be credited for payment purposes. If errors in signatures, times, post numbers, or duty status are made on the Form 139, the vendor employee should draw a single line through the entire line on which such mistakes appear. The next line immediately below (or following on subsequent sheet's) will be used to record all information in the correct manner. The Vendor must place an “*” or “x” and a number in the footnote column “g” signifying a detailed explanation to each erroneous entry describing mistakes made can be found in the bottom margin, or reverse side of the form.

The vendor may retain a copy of the Form 139. Original Form 139’s are the property of the COR / Inspector and should be delivered to the COR at the first of each month for the immediately preceding month. The last day of the month shall conclude the entries on the form. A new form must be used to start a new month. No form 139 should capture entries from two separate months.

No employee of the vendor shall provide more than twelve (12) hours of combined service on any one or multiple contracts administered by the IRS in any twenty-four (24) hour period, unless the work periods are separated by an eight (8) hour non-duty period.

Reduction at Post -- In the event that posted guards are released due to weather closures or similar unforeseen occurrences, payment will be for the lesser of two hours or the post period balance, in addition to the services provided prior to the closure.
