<br />become due and payable. If requested by the Owner, the Contractor shall promptly furnish proof of
<br />payment of such accounts to the Owner.
<br />4.4.4. Attention to Work
<br />The Contractor, acting through its representative, shall give personal attention to and shall manage the
<br />Work so that it shall be prosecuted faithfully and completed under the Project schedule. When its
<br />representative is not personally present at the Project Site, its designated alternate shall be available and
<br />shall have the authority to act in matters relating to this Contract.
<br />4.4.5. Safety
<br />The Contractor alone shall be responsible for safety on the job Site, including, but not limited to, the
<br />safety of its and its Subcontractor's employees. The Contractor shall maintain the Project Site and
<br />perform the Work in a manner which meets the Owner's responsibility under statutory and common law
<br />for the provision of a safe place to work.
<br />4.4.6. Threats, Intimidation and Harassment Forbidden
<br />Contractor shall not allow its employees, its Subcontractors, its Subcontractors’ employees, or any other
<br />agents to threaten bodily injury or property damage, to intimidate or attempt to intimidate any person, or
<br />to assault or physically harass any person. Forbidden conduct includes, but is not limited to, threatening,
<br />appearing, or actually doing any of the following: pushing, shoving, striking, physically blocking a person
<br />or a person’s vehicle, vandalism, malicious mischief, or any other act that a reasonable person would
<br />understand be intended to intimidate, cause personal injury, or cause property damage. Contractor shall
<br />remove from the job site any person reasonably under its control or direction who the Contractor or
<br />Owner reasonably believes violated this section. The lack of a request from the Owner or Owner’s
<br />Representative to the Contractor to remove someone from the job Site does not relieve the Contractor
<br />from its obligation to remove someone.
<br />4.4.7. Weapons Forbidden
<br />Contractor shall not allow its employees, its Subcontractors, its Subcontractors’ employees, or any other
<br />agents or representatives to carry or possess, openly or concealed, explosives or weapons on the job Site,
<br />except: (a) such explosives are as reasonably required for performance of the Work, such as those
<br />necessary for blasting or demolition work called for by the Contract Documents or (b) commissioned law
<br />enforcement officers or security personnel under authority of their commission. A weapon is any object,
<br />instrument or chemical which is (1) designed in such a manner to inflict harm or injury to another person;
<br />or (2) any item used in a manner threatening harm or injury to another person. Weapons include, but are
<br />not limited to, firearms, dangerous knives, dangerous chemicals, tear gas, martial arts weapons,
<br />blackjacks or other weapons. Further, weapons should include those delineated in EMC Chapter 10.78. b.
<br />Possession of mace, pepper spray or the like for defensive purposes is not a violation of this policy.
<br />Contractor shall remove from the job Site any person reasonably under its control or direction who the
<br />Contractor or Owner reasonably believes violated this section. The lack of a request from the Owner or
<br />Owner’s Representative to the Contractor to remove someone from the job Site does not relieve the
<br />Contractor from its obligation to remove someone.
<br />4.4.8. Safety Standards
<br />The Contractor shall comply with Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40
<br />U.S.C. 327-330) as supplemented by Department of Labor Regulations (29 CFR, Part 5). Under this
<br />section, the Contractor shall not require any laborer or mechanic to work in surroundings or under
<br />working conditions that are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to its health and safety as determined
<br />under construction, safety, and health standards promulgated by the Secretary of Labor. These
<br />requirements do not apply to the purchase of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the
<br />open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence.
