records in possession of the contractor upon termination of the contract and destroy any duplicate

public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirement.

All records stored electronically must be provided to the County in a format that is compatible with

the information technology systems of the county.

e) If the contractor does not comply with a public records request, the County shall enforce the contract provisions in accordance with the contract.

13. On-The-Job Training Requirements: As part of the Contractor’s equal employment opportunity

affirmative action program, training shall be provided as follows: The Contractor shall provide on-the-job

training aimed at developing full journeymen in the type(s) of trade or job classification(s) involved in the

work. In the event the Contractor subcontracts a portion of the contract work, he/she shall determine how

many, if any, of the trainees are to be trained by the subcontractor provided, that the Contractor shall

retain the primary responsibility for meeting the training requirements imposed by this Section. The

Contractor shall apply the requirements of this Section to such subcontract.

The number of trainees will be estimated on the number of calendar days of the contract, the dollar value,

and the scope of work to be performed. The trainee goal will be finalized at a Post-Preconstruction

Trainee Evaluation Meeting and the goal will be distributed among the work classifications based on the

following criteria:

1) Determine the number of trainees on Federal Aid Contract: (a) No trainees will be required for contracts with a contract time allowance of less than 225

calendar days.

(b) If the contract time allowance is 225 calendar days or more, the number of trainees shall be established in accordance with the following chart:

Further, if the Contractor or subcontractor requests to utilize banked trainees as discussed later in this

Section, a Banking Certificate will be validated at this meeting allowing credit to the Contractor for

previously banked trainees. Banked credits of prime Contractors working as Subcontractors may be

accepted for credit. The Contractor’s Project Manager, the Construction Project Engineer and the

Department’s District Contract Compliance Manager will attend this meeting. Within ten days after the

Post-Preconstruction Training Evaluation Meeting, the

Contractor shall submit to the Department for approval an On-The-Job Training Schedule indicating the

number of trainees to be trained in each selected classification and the portion of the contract time during

which training of each trainee is to take place. This schedule may be subject to change if the following

occur:

1. When a start date on the approved On-The-Job Training Schedule has been missed by 14 or more days;

2. When there is a change(s) in previously approved classifications;

3. When replacement trainees are added due to voluntary or involuntary termination

The revised schedule will be resubmitted to and approved by the Department’s District

Contract Compliance Manager.

The following criteria will be used in determining whether or not the Contractor has complied with this

Section as it relates to the number of trainees to be trained:

1. Full credit will be allowed for each trainee that is both enrolled and satisfactorily completes training on this Contract. Credit for trainees, over the established number for this Contract, will be carried in a “bank”

for the Contractor and credit will be allowed for those surplus trainees in subsequent, applicable projects.

A “banked” trainee is described as an employee who has been trained on a project, over and above the

established goal, and for which the Contractor desires to preserve credit for utilization on a subsequent

project. 2. Full credit will be allowed for each trainee that has been previously enrolled in the Department’s approved training

program on another contract and continues training in the same job classification for a significant period and

completes his/her training on this Contract.

3. Full credit will be allowed for each trainee who, due to the amount of work available in his/her classification, is

given the greatest practical amount of training on the contract regardless of whether or not the trainee completes

training.

4. Full credit will be allowed for any training position indicated in the approved On-The-Job Training Schedule, if the

Contractor can demonstrate that he/she has made his/her a good faith effort to provide training in that classification.

5. No credit will be allowed for a trainee whose employment by the Contractor is involuntarily terminated unless the

Contractor can clearly demonstrate good cause for this action.

The Contractor shall, as far as is practical, comply with the time frames established in the approved On-

The-Job Training Schedule. When this proves to be impractical, a revised schedule shall be submitted and

11



PM, Local Time






Phone: (407)742-0900 Fax: (407)742-0901


approved as provided above.

Training and upgrading of minorities, women and economically disadvantaged persons toward

journeyman status is a primary objective of this Section. Accordingly, the Contractor shall make every

effort to enroll minority trainees and women (e.g., by conducting systematic and direct recruitment

through public and private sources likely to yield minority and women trainees) to the extent such persons

are available within a reasonable area of recruitment. If a non-minority male is enrolled into On-The-Job

Training, the On-The-Job Training Notification of Personnel Action Form notifying the District Contract

Compliance Manager of such action shall be accompanied by a disadvantaged certification or a

justification for such action acceptable to the Department’s District Contract Compliance Manager. The

Contractor will be given an opportunity and will be responsible for demonstrating the steps that he has

taken in pursuance thereof, prior to a determination as to whether the Contractor is in compliance with

this Section. This training is not intended, and shall not be used, to discriminate against any applicant for

training, whether a minority, woman or disadvantaged person.

No employee shall be employed as a trainee in any classification in which he/she has successfully

completed a training course leading to journeyman status, has been employed as a journeyman, or has had

extensive experience in the classification being considered for training.

The Contractor shall satisfy this requirement by including appropriate questions in the employee

application or by other suitable means. Regardless of the method used, the Contractor’s records should

document the findings in each case.

The minimum length and type of training for each classification will be as established at the Post-

Preconstruction Trainee Evaluation Meeting and approved by the Department. Graduation to journeyman

status will be based upon satisfactory completion of a Proficiency Demonstration set up at the completion

of training and established for the specific training classification, completion of the minimum hours in a

training classification range, and the employer’s satisfaction that the trainee does meet journeyman status

in the classification of training. Upon reaching journeyman status, the following documentation must be

forwarded to the District Contract Compliance Office:

Trainee Enrollment and Personnel Action Form

Proficiency Demonstration Verification Form indicating completion of each standard established for the classification signed by representatives of both the Contractor and the Department; and,

A letter stating that the trainee has sufficiently progressed in the craft and is being promoted to journeyman status.

The Department and the Contractor shall establish a program that is tied to the scope of the work in the

project and the length of operations providing it is reasonably calculated to meet the equal employment

opportunity obligations of the Contractor and to qualify the average trainee for journeyman status in the

classifications concerned, by at least, the minimum hours prescribed for a training classification.

Furthermore, apprenticeship programs registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of

Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State apprenticeship agency recognized by the Bureau and training

programs approved but not necessarily sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Manpower

Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training shall also be considered acceptable provided it is

being administered in a manner consistent with the equal employment obligations of Federal Aid highway

construction contract. Approval or acceptance of a training schedule shall be obtained from the

Department prior to commencing work on the classifications covered by the program.

A voluntary On-The-Job Training Program is available to a Contractor which has been awarded a state

funded project. Through this program, the Contractor will have the option to train employees on state

funded projects for “banked credit” as discussed previously in this provision, to be utilized on subsequent

Federal Aid Projects where training is required. Those Contractors availing themselves of this opportunity

to train personnel on state funded projects and bank trainee hours for credit shall comply with all training

criteria set forth in this Section for Federal Aid Projects; voluntary banking may be denied by the

Department if staff is not available to monitor compliance with the training criteria.

It is the intention of these provisions that training is to be provided in the construction crafts rather than

clerk-typists or secretarial type positions. Training is permissible in positions such as office engineers,

estimators, etc., where the training is oriented toward construction applications. Training in the laborer

classification may be permitted provided that significant and meaningful training is provided and

approved by the District Contract Compliance Office. Some offsite training is permissible as long as the

training is an integral part of an approved training program and does not compromise a significant part of

the overall training.

When approved in advance by the District Contract Compliance Manager, credit will be given for training

of persons in excess of the number specified herein under the current contract or a Contractor will be

allowed to bank trainees who have successfully completed a training program and may apply those

trainees to a training requirement in subsequent project(s) upon approval of the Department’s District

Contract Compliance Manager. This credit will be given even though the Contractor may receive training

program funds from other sources, provided such other source do not specifically prohibit the Contractor

from receiving other form of compensation. Credit for offsite training indicated above may only be made

to the Contractor where he does one or more of the following and the trainees are concurrently employed

on a Federal Aid Project; contributes to the cost of the training, provides the instruction to the trainee and

pays the trainee’s wages during the offsite training period.

No credit shall be given to the Contractor if either the failure to provide the required training, or the

failure to hire the trainee as a journeyman for a period ample enough to allow the employee time to gain

experience in the training classification or failure to continue training the employee time to gain

experience in the training classifications is caused by the Contractor and evidences a lack of good faith on

the part of the Contractor in meeting the requirements of this Section.

The Contractor shall compensate the trainee at no less than the laborer rate established in the Contract at

the onset of training. This compensation rate will be increased to the journeyman’s wage for that

classification upon graduation from the training program.

The Contractor shall furnish the trainee a copy of the program he will follow in providing the training.

The Contractor shall provide each trainee with a certification showing the type and length of training

satisfactorily completed. The Contractor shall enroll a trainee in one training classification at a time to

completion before the trainee can be enrolled in another classification on the same project.

The Contractor shall maintain records to document the actual hours each trainee is engaged in training on

work being performed as a part of this Contract.

The Contractor shall submit to the District Contract Compliance Manager a copy of an On-The-Job

Training Notification of Personnel Action form no later than seven days after the effective date of the

13



PM, Local Time






Phone: (407)742-0900 Fax: (407)742-0901


action when the following occurs: a trainee is transferred on the project, transferred from the project to

continue training on another contract, completes training, is upgraded to journeyman status or voluntary

terminates or is involuntary terminated from the project.

The Contractor shall furnish to the District Contract Compliance Manager a copy of a Monthly Time

Report for each trainee. The Monthly Time Report for each month shall be submitted no later than the

tenth day of the subsequent month. The Monthly Time Report shall indicate the phases and sub-phases of

the number of hours devoted to each.

Highway or Bridge Carpenter Helper, Mechanic Helper, Rodman/Chainman, Timekeeper, trainees will not be approved for the On-The-Job Training Program.

Painters, Electricians, and Mechanics are identified as crafts under-utilized by minorities. All training classifications except Laborers are identified as under-utilized by women.

Priority selection should also include those crafts under-utilized and/or void of minorities and/or women by that particular company’s workforce.

If the Contractor does not select a training classification that has been targeted as an under-utilized craft,

and those classifications can be used for the selection of training for this project, the On-The-Job Training

Schedule will not be approved unless written justification for exceptions is attached.
