ILLINOIS ADMINISTRATIVE CODE
EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY CLAUSE
44 Ill. Admin. Code, Section 750. APPENDIX A. Equal Employment
Opportunity Clause
EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
In the event of the contractor's non-compliance with the provisions of this
Equal Employment Opportunity Clause, the Illinois Human Rights Act or the
Rules and Regulations of the Illinois Department of Human Rights
("Department"), the contractor may be declared ineligible for future contracts
or subcontracts with the State of Illinois or any of its political subdivisions or
municipal corporations, and the contract may be canceled or voided in whole
or in part, and such other sanctions or penalties may be imposed or remedies
invoked as provided by statute or regulation. During the performance of this
contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
1) That it will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for
employment because of race, color, religion, sex, marital status, national
origin or ancestry, age, physical or mental handicap unrelated to ability, or an
unfavorable discharge from military service; and further that it will examine all
job classifications to determine if minority persons or women are underutilized
and will take appropriate affirmative action to rectify any such underutilization.
2) That, if it hires additional employees in order to perform this
contract or any portion thereof, it will determine the availability (in accordance
with the Department's Rules) of minorities and women in the area(s) from
which it may reasonably recruit and it will hire for each job classification for
which employees are hired in such a way that minorities and women are not
underutilized.
3) That, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed
by it or on its behalf, it will state that all applicants will be afforded equal
opportunity without discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, marital
status, national origin or ancestry, age, physical or mental handicap unrelated
to ability, or an unfavorable discharge from military service.
4) That it will send to each labor organization or representative of
workers with which it has or is bound by a collective bargaining or other
agreement or understanding, a notice advising such labor organization or
representative of the contractor's obligations under the Illinois Human Rights
Act and the Department's Rules. If any such labor organization or
representative fails or refuses to cooperate with the contractor in its efforts to
comply with such Act and Rules, the contractor will promptly so notify the
Department and the contracting agency and will recruit employees from other
sources when necessary to fulfill its obligations thereunder.
5) That it will submit reports as required by the Department's Rules,
furnish all relevant information as may from time to time be requested by the
Department or the contracting agency, and in all respects comply with the
Illinois Human Rights Act and the Department's Rules.
6) That it will permit access to all relevant books, records, accounts
and work sites by personnel of the contracting agency and the Department for
purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with the Illinois Human
Rights Act and the Department's Rules.
7) That it will include verbatim or by reference the provisions of this
clause in every subcontract it awards under which any portion of the contract
obligations are undertaken or assumed, so that such provisions will be
binding upon such subcontractor. In the same manner as with other
provisions of this contract, the contractor will be liable for compliance with
applicable provisions of this clause by such subcontractors; and further it will
promptly notify the contracting agency and the Department in the event any
subcontractor fails or refuses to comply therewith. In addition, the contractor
will not utilize any subcontractor declared by the Illinois Human Rights
Commission to be ineligible for contracts or subcontracts with the State of
Illinois or any of its political subdivisions or municipal corporations.
FEDERAL EXECUTIVE ORDER 11246
The Executive Order 11246 (E.O 11246) prohibits federal contractors and
subcontractors and federally-assisted construction contractors and
subcontractors that generally have contracts that exceed $10,000 from
discriminating in employment decisions on the basis of race, color, religion,
sex, or national origin. It also requires covered contractors to take affirmative
action to ensure that equal opportunity is provided in all aspects of their
employment.
The E.O. 11246 is administered by the Employment Standards
Administration's Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP)
within the U.S. Department of Labor.
WRITTEN SEXUAL HARASSMENT POLICY REQUIRED
Illinois law requires all parties to a public contract and all eligible bidders to
have a written sexual harassment policy covering their employees and
applicants for employment. This requirement applies regardless of the
number of persons employed or the dollar value of any public contract.

harassment policy must contain the following elements:
