by: Sara Tandy On December 14, 2023, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) published a Final Rule implementing Executive Order 14055, Non-Displacement of Qualified Workers Under Service Contracts, aimed at preventing disruptions in federal services by encouraging use of the same workers when the performance of a federal service contract shifts from one contractor to another.
Executive Order 14055 and the Final Rule essentially provide that a successor contractor must hire or offer the right of first refusal to the predecessor’s employees whenever a service contract with the government expires and a follow-on contract is awarded. |
