<br />following: employment, upgrading; demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment
<br />advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection
<br />for training, including apprenticeship. The CONTRACTOR agrees to post in conspicuous
<br />places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided by the
<br />contracting officer setting forth the provision of this nondiscrimination clause.
<br />(2) The CONTRACTOR will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on
<br />behalf of the CONTRACTOR, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for
<br />employment without regard to race, religion, color, sex, or national origin.
<br />(3) The CONTRACTOR will send to each labor union or representative of workers which he has
<br />a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice, to be provided
<br />by the agency contracting officer, advising the labor union or workers' representative of the
<br />CONTRACTOR'S commitments under Section 202 of Executive Order No. 11246 as
<br />amended (3CFR 169 (1974), and shall post copies of notices in conspicuous places available
<br />to employees and applicants for employment.
<br />(4) The CONTRACTOR will comply with all provisions of Executive Order No. 11246, as
<br />amended, and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.
<br />(5) The CONTRACTOR will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order No.
<br />11246, as amended, and the rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or
<br />pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the
<br />contracting agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain
<br />compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
<br />(6) In the event of the CONTRACTOR'S noncompliance with the discrimination clauses of this
<br />contract, or with any of such rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled,
<br />terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the CONTRACTOR may be declared
<br />ineligible for further Government contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in
<br />Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, and such other sanctions may be imposed and
<br />remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, or by rules,
<br />regulations, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.
<br />(7) The CONTRACTOR will include the provisions of Paragraphs (1) through (7) in every
<br />subcontract or purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the
<br />Secretary of Labor issued pursuant to Section 204 of Executive Order No. 11246, as
<br />amended, so that such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The
<br />CONTRACTOR will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as
<br />the contracting agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including
<br />sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that in the event the CONTRACTOR
<br />becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a
<br />result of such direction by the contracting agency, the CONTRACTOR may request the
<br />United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
