About this file

This is a Vendor Affidavit regarding the Use of Coercion for Labor and Services required by Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida for all nongovernmental entities executing, renewing, or extending contracts with the school district. The affidavit is mandated by Section 787.06(13) of the Florida Statutes and requires an authorized officer or representative of the contractor to certify under penalty of perjury that the company does not engage in human trafficking or labor coercion. The contractor must affirm that it does not use or threaten physical force, restrain or confine persons without lawful authority, establish exploitative debt relationships, confiscate identification documents, threaten financial harm, use fraud or deceit to exploit persons, or provide controlled substances for exploitation purposes.

This affidavit document serves as a mandatory compliance requirement for the Montessori Classroom Supplies contract opportunity issued by Hillsborough County Public Schools. The affidavit must be signed by an authorized company representative and submitted as part of the bid or contract execution process. Failure to provide this certification or misrepresentation of the company's practices constitutes perjury under Florida law. The document ensures that all vendors contracting with the school district maintain ethical labor practices and comply with state human trafficking statutes.
