Contractor will comply, and all its subcontractors will comply, with all <br />requirements of Sections 103 and 107 of the Contract Work and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. <br />327-330) as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5), as applicable. <br />Compliance with the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act: <br />(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of <br />the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or <br />mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek <br />in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in <br />such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate <br />not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in <br />excess of forty hours in such workweek. <br />(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any <br />violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section the contractor <br />and any subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In <br />addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in <br />the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to <br />such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages <br />shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including <br />watchmen and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph <br />(b)(1) of this section, in the stun of $27 for each calendar day on which such <br />individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek <br />of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set <br />forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section. <br />(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The Contractor shall upon <br />its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the <br />Department of Labor withhold or cause to be withheld, from any moneys payable <br />on account of work performed by the contractor or subcontractor under any such <br />contract or any other federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other <br />federally -assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety <br />Standards Act, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as may be <br />determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or <br />subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause <br />set forth in paragraph (b)(2) of this section <br />(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the <br />clauses set forth in paragraph (b)(1) through (4) of this section and also a clause <br />requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. <br />The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or <br />lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (b)(1) through (4) <br />of this section. <br />14 <br />
