Failure to pay the <br />unlisted employees the compensation agreed upon by the interested parties and/or finally <br />determined by the Wage and Hour Division retroactive to the date such class of <br />employees commenced contract work shall be a violation of the Service Contract Labor <br />Standards statute and this contract. <br />(vi) Upon discovery of failure to comply with subparagraphs (b)(2) of this clause, the <br />Wage and Hour Division shall make a final determination of conformed classification, <br />wage rate, and/or fringe benefits which shall be retroactive to the date such class or <br />classes of employees commenced contract work. <br />(3) Adjustment of Compensation. If the term of this contract is more than 1 year, the minimum <br />monetary wages and fringe benefits required to be paid or furnished thereunder to service <br />employees under the contract shall be subject to adjustment after 1 year and not less often than <br />once every 2 years, under wage determinations issued by the Wage and Hour Division. <br />(d) Obligation to Furnish Fringe Benefits. The Contractor or subcontractor may discharge the <br />obligation to furnish fringe benefits specified in the attachment or determined under subparagraph <br />(c)(2) of this clause by furnishing equivalent combinations of bona fide fringe benefits, or by making <br />equivalent or differential cash payments, only in accordance with Subpart D of 29 CFR Part 4. <br />(e) Minimum Wage. In the absence of a minimum wage attachment for this contract, neither the <br />Contractor nor any subcontractor under this contract shall pay any person performing work under this <br />contract (regardless of whether the person is a service employee) less than the minimum wage specified <br />by section 6(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Nothing in this clause shall relieve the <br />Contractor or any subcontractor of any other obligation under law or contract for payment of a higher <br />wage to any employee. <br />(f) Successor Contracts. If this contract succeeds a contract subject to the Service Contract Labor <br />Standards statute under which substantially the same services were furnished in the same locality and <br />service employees were paid wages and fringe benefits provided for in a collective bargaining <br />agreement, in the absence of the minimum wage attachment for this contract setting forth such <br />collectively bargained wage rates and fringe benefits, neither the Contractor nor any subcontractor <br />under this contract shall pay any service employee performing any of the contract work (regardless of <br />whether or not such employee was employed under the predecessor contract), less than the wages and <br />fringe benefits provided for in such collective bargaining agreement, to which such employee would <br />have been entitled if employed under the predecessor contract, including accrued wages and fringe <br />benefits and any prospective increases in wages and fringe benefits provided for under such agreement. <br />No Contractor or subcontractor under this contract may be relieved of the foregoing obligation unless <br />the limitations of 29 CFR 4.lb(b) apply or unless the Secretary of Labor or the Secretary's authorized <br />representative finds, after a hearing as provided in 29 CFR 4.10 that the wages and/or fringe benefits <br />provided for in such agreement are substantially at variance with those which prevail for services of a <br />character similar in the locality, or determines, as provided in 29 CFR 4. 11, that the collective <br />Page: 56 of 216 <br />143 <br />
