<br />

<br />of 1957, as amended, and other applicable law respecting discrimination and unfair employment
<br />practices (C.R.S. 24-34-402), and as required by Executive Order, Equal Opportunity and
<br />Affirmative Action, dated April 16, 1975. Pursuant thereto, the following provisions shall be
<br />contained in all STATE contracts or sub-contracts.
<br />
<br />During the performance of this contract, the CONTRACTOR agrees as follows:
<br />
<br />a. The CONTRACTOR will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment
<br />because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, martial status, religion, ancestry, mental or
<br />physical handicap, or age. The CONTRACTOR will take affirmative action to insure that
<br />applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard
<br />to the above mentioned characteristics. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the
<br />following: employment upgrading, demotion, or transfer, recruitment or recruitment
<br />advertisings; lay-offs or terminations; rates of payor other forms of compensation; and
<br />selection for training, including apprenticeship. The CONTRACTOR agrees to post in
<br />conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be
<br />provided by the contracting officer setting forth provisions of this non-discrimination clause.
<br />
<br />b. The CONTRACTOR will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on
<br />behalf of the CONTRACTOR, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for
<br />employment without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, sex, martial status, religion,
<br />ancestry, mental or physical handicap, or age.
<br />
<br />c. The CONTRACTOR will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which he has
<br />a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, notice to be provided by
<br />the contracting officer, advising the labor union or workers' representative of the
<br />CONTRACTOR'S commitment under the Executive Order, Equal Opportunity and Affirmative
<br />Action, dated April 16, 1975, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant Orders of the
<br />Governor.
<br />
<br />d. The CONTRACTOR and labor unions will furnish all information and reports required by
<br />Executive Order, Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action of April 16, 1975, and by the rules,
<br />regulations and Orders of the Governor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his
<br />books, records, and accounts by the contracting agency and the office of the Governor or his
<br />designee for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations
<br />and orders.
<br />
<br />e. A labor organization will not exclude any individual otherwise qualified from full membership
<br />rights in such labor organization, or expel any such individual from membership in such labor
<br />organization or discriminate against any of its members in the full enjoyment of work
<br />opportunity because of race, creed, color, sex, national origin, or ancestry.
<br />
<br />f. A labor organization, or the employees or members thereof will not aid, abet, incite, compel or
<br />coerce the doing of any act defined in this contract to be discriminatory or obstruct or prevent
<br />any person from complying with the provisions of this contract or any order issued thereunder;
<br />or attempt, either directly or indirectly, to commit any act defined in this contract to be
<br />discriminatory.
<br />
<br />g. In the event of the CONTRACTOR'S non-compliance with the non-discrimination clauses of this
<br />contract or with any of such rules, regulations, or orders, this contract may be canceled,
<br />terminated or suspended in whole or in part and the CONTRACTOR may be declared ineligible
<br />for further STATE contracts in accordance with procedures, authorized in Executive Order,
<br />Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action of April 16, 1975 and the rules, regulations, or
<br />orders promulgated in accordance therewith, and such other sanctions as may be imposed
