employee engaged in the operation,  irritation of the skin, minor burns and the 
like; minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used.  All

incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition.  These differentials

ordance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay.

** 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.

                         ** NOTES APPLYING TO THIS WAGE DETERMINATION **

Source of Occupational Title and Descriptions:

The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the 
"Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations," Fourth Edition, January 1993, as 
amended by the Third Supplement, dated March 1997, unless otherwise indicated.  This 
publication may be obtained from the Superintendent of Documents, at 202-783-3238, 
or by writing to the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, 
Washington, D.C. 20402.  Copies of specific job descriptions may also be obtained 
from the appropriate contracting officer.

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(s) and computes a proposed rate(s).

2) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order 
proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency (FGE) for each 
proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for proposed wage 
rate(s), 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.
