Description:
For contractors and subcontractors providing services to the federal government, compliance with the Service Contract Act or Service Contract Labor Standards is required. Consequences for non-compliance include financial penalties and back wages, withholding of contract funds, and debarment from future contracts—each potentially triggering an audit and investigation by the Department of Labor. To help contractors comply and avoid these consequences, this session covers key components of the SCA, as well as practical applications to take back to your company.
Learning objectives include:
- SCA fundamentals; fringe benefit considerations;
- employee classification;
- application to remote workers;
- collective bargaining; ancillary executive orders (minimum wage, sick leave, non-displacement);
- understanding contractual obligations; and
- price adjustments.
