WORK_AUTHORIZATION_AFFIDAVIT_FOR_BUSINESS_ENTITIES_.pdf

This is a Work Authorization Affidavit for Business Entities required by the City of Florissant, Missouri for all contracts exceeding $5,000.00. The affidavit mandates that contractor agents attest under penalty of perjury that their organization is enrolled and participating in a federal work authorization program for all employees providing goods or services to the City of Florissant. The contractor must affirm that it does not knowingly employ, hire, or continue to employ unauthorized aliens in connection with services provided to the city. Additionally, all subcontractors must either include written statements in their subcontracts affirming compliance with Missouri Revised Statutes Section 285.530 or submit their own sworn affidavits attesting that all employees are lawfully present in the United States. The affidavit requires notarization and must include documentation of participation in a federal work authorization program.

This document applies to the City of Florissant's solicitation for a Design and Planning Consultant to provide planning, design, and engineering services for the City Hall Plaza Project. The affidavit serves as a compliance requirement ensuring that any selected consultant and their subcontractors maintain lawful work authorization for all personnel assigned to the project. Failure to comply with these work authorization requirements renders a contractor ineligible for contract award and may result in contract termination.
