\*\* UNIFORM ALLOWANCE \*\*

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this
contract (either by

the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or
local law, etc.),

the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or
dry cleaning) such

uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such
cost reduces the

hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The
Department of Labor will

accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance:

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees
with an adequate

number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual
cost of the

uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made
the responsibility

of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage
determination

shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement
providing for a

different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to
the actual cost),

reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of
\$3.35 per week (or

\$.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms
furnished are made of \"wash and wear\" materials, may be routinely
washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any
special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial
laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set
by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or
by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be
reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.

REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE
{Standard Form 1444

(SF 1444)}

Conformance Process:

The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee
which is not

listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the
work to be

performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage
determination), be

classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship
(i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted
classifications and the classifications listed in the wage
determination. Such conformed classes of employees shall be paid the
monetary wages and furnished the fringe benefits as are determined. Such
conforming process shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the
performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees.
The conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits shall be
retroactive to the commencement date of the contract. {See Section 4.6
(C)(vi)} When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract, a
separate SF 1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which
a class(es) is to be conformed.

The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows:

1\) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a
conformed occupation)

and computes a proposed rate).

2\) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report
listing in order proposed classification title), a Federal grade
equivalency (FGE) for each proposed

classification), job description), and rationale for proposed wage
rate), including

information regarding the agreement or disagreement of the authorized
representative of the employees involved, or where there is no
authorized representative, the employees

themselves. This report should be submitted to the contracting officer
no later than 30

days after such unlisted class(es) of employees performs any contract
work.

3\) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly
submits a report of the action, together with the agency\'s
recommendations and pertinent information including the position of the
contractor and the employees, to the Wage and Hour Division, Employment
Standards Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, for review. (See
section 4.6(b)(2) of Regulations 29 CFR Part 4).

4\) Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division approves,
modifies, or disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency
contracting officer, or notifies the contracting officer that additional
time will be required to process the request.

5\) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour decision to the
contractor.

6\) The contractor informs the affected employees.

Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF 1444 or
bond paper.

When preparing a conformance request, the \"Service Contract Act
Directory of Occupations\"

(the Directory) should be used to compare job definitions to insure that
duties requested

are not performed by a classification already listed in the wage
determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but the required tasks
that determine whether a class is included in an established wage
determination. Conformances may not be used to artificially split,
combine, or subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination.
