§ 151.53 Performance of construction 

work: Labor requirements. 

A sponsor who is required to include 

in a construction contract the labor 
provisions required by § 151.49 shall re-
quire the contractor to comply with 
those provisions and shall cooperate 
with the FAA in effecting that compli-
ance. For this purpose the sponsor 
shall— 

(a) Keep, and preserve, for a three- 

year period beginning on the date the 
contract is completed, each affidavit 
and payroll copy furnished by the con-
tractor, and make those affidavits and 
copies available to the FAA, upon re-
quest, during that period; 

(b) Have each of those affidavits and 

payrolls examined by its resident engi-
neer (or any other of its employees or 
agents who are qualified to make the 
necessary determinations), as soon as 
possible after receiving it, to the ex-
tent necessary to determine whether 
the contractor is complying with the 
labor provisions required by § 151.49 and 
particularly with respect to whether 
the contractor’s employees are cor-
rectly classified; 

(c) Have investigations made during 

the performance of work under the con-
tract, to the extent necessary to deter-
mine whether the contractor is com-
plying with those labor provisions, par-
ticularly with respect to whether the 
contractor’s employees are correctly 
classified, including in the investiga-
tions, interviews with employees and 
examinations of payroll information at 
the work site by the sponsor’s resident 
engineer (or any other of its employees 
or agents who are qualified to make 
the necessary determinations); and 

(d) Keep the Area Manager fully ad-

vised of all examinations and inves-
tigations made under this section, all 
determinations made on the basis of 
those examinations and investigations, 
and all efforts made to obtain compli-
ance with the labor provisions of the 
contract. 

For the purposes of paragraph (c) of 
this section, the sponsor shall give pri-
ority to complaints of alleged viola-
tions, and shall treat as confidential 
any written or oral statements made 
by any employee. The sponsor may not 
disclose an employee’s statement to a 
contractor without the employee’s con-
sent.

mittee on Equal Employment Oppor-

Federal Aviation Administration, DOT 

§ 151.55 

require his contractors to include in 
their invitations for bids or negotia-
tions for subcontracts, the following 
provisions based on § 60–1.6(b)(1): 

Each bidder, prospective contractor or pro-

posed subcontractor shall state as an initial 
part of the bid or negotiations of the con-
tract whether he has participated in any pre-
vious contract or subcontract subject to the 
equal opportunity clause and, if so, whether 
he has filed with the Office of Federal Con-
tract Compliance in the United States De-
partment of Labor or the contracting or ad-
ministering agency all compliance reports 
due under applicable instructions. In any 
case in which a bidder or prospective con-
tractor or proposed subcontractor who has 
participated in a previous contract or sub-
contract subject to the equal opportunity 
clause has not filed a compliance report due 
under applicable instructions, such bidder, 
prospective contractor or proposed sub-
contractors shall submit a compliance report 
prior to the award of the proposed contract 
or subcontract. When a determination has 
been made to award a contract to a specific 
contractor, such contractor shall, prior to 
award, furnish such other pertinent informa-
tion regarding his own employment policies 
and practices as well as those of his proposed 
subcontractors as the FAA, the sponsor, or 
the Director of the Office of Federal Con-
tract compliance may require. 

(2) The sponsor or his contractors 

shall give express notice of the require-
ments of this paragraph (d) in all invi-
tations for bids or negotiations for con-
tracts. 

(e) 

Enforcement. 

The FAA conducts 

compliance reviews, handles com-
plaints and, where appropriate, con-
ducts hearings and imposes, or rec-
ommends to the Office of Federal Con-
tract Compliance, sanctions, as pro-
vided in subpart B—General Enforce-
ment; Complaint Procedure of part 60– 
1. 

(f) 

Exempted contracts. 

Except for sub-

contracts for the performance of con-
struction work at the site of construc-
tion, the requirements of this section 
do not apply to subcontracts below the 
second tier (§ 60–1.3(c)). The require-
ments of this section do not apply to 
contracts and subcontracts exempted 
by § 60–1.4.

tion means the sponsor, except where 
part 60–1 refers to an applicant for em-

ployment, and the term ‘‘administering 
agency’’ therein means the FAA.
