PREEMPT announces our important wage payment course, “Service Contract Labor Standards/Service Contract Act (“SCLS-SCA”) Wages & Benefits Requirements for Federal Services Contractors™ (formerly Principles for Achieving Compliance & Profitability On Government Contracts). The First and Only of its Kind Created for GSA Schedule Holders, Contractors, Workers & Small Businesses” by a Former U.S. Department of Labor Enforcement Attorney, Former Labor/Employment Defense Attorney and Current Federal GSA Schedule Holder/Contractor. Based on this unique trifecta background, Wanda M. Johnson, J.D., is one of the few SCA Pricing Experts in the United States that has created this course specifically for our service government contracting industry.
As Government Contractors & GSA Schedule Holders if you provide services exceeding $2500 (who doesn’t) to the Federal Government or the District of Columbia, you need to know about the SCA aka Scary Contractors Act.
Also, even if you are a subcontractor or independent contractor you need to know about the SCA because of contract “flow down'” clauses that automatically apply to the covered contract.
The SCA is one of the most powerful labor standards solely enforced by U.S. Department of Labor and most contractors have no clue about the unintended consequences of non-compliance including owing thousands of dollars in back wages to Federal service workers, withholding of contract payments by federal agencies, mandatory debarment and underbidding government contracts.
