** 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.
