In connection with the performance of work under this contract,the Contractor agrees as follows: (a) The Contractor will not willfully discriminate against any employee or an applicant for employment because of race,color,religion,ancestry,or national origin.The Contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion,ancestry,or national origin.

(d) A finding of willful violation of the Fair Employment Practices section of this Contract or of the Fair Employment Practices Act shall be regarded by the awarding authority as a basis for determining the Contractor to be not a "responsible bidder" as to future contracts for which such Contractor may submit bids,for revoking the Contractor's pre-qualification rating,if any and for refusing to establish, reestablish or renew a pre-qualification rating for the Contractor. The City of Ukiah shall deem a finding of willful receipt of written notice from the Fair Employment Practices Act to have occurred upon that it has investigated and determined that the Contractor has violated the Fair Employment Practices Act and has issued an order under Labor Code Section 1426 or obtained an injunction under Labor Code Section 1429.

Willfully false statements made in such reports shall be punishable as provided by law.The compliance report shall also spell out the sources of the work force and who has the responsibility for determining whom to hire,or whether or not to hire. (4) Personally,or through his or her representatives,the Contractor shall,through negotiations with the unions with whom he or she has agreements, attempt to develop an agreement which will: a. Spell out responsibilities for nondiscrimination in hiring, referral, upgrading and training. b. Otherwise implement an affirmative anti-discrimination program in terms of the unions' specific areas of skill and geography to the end that qualified minority workers will be available and given and equal opportunity for employment.
