Compliance Monitoring - CHRO Reporting Requirements
The University has tied monthly payments to general contractors to their submission of Monthly Employment Utilization Reports (Form CHRO cc-257). A letter of transmittal is required to be attached to each invoice submitted by the contractor, to include a certification of CHRO and wage rate compliance.
Project Managers are advised by the USDP Program Specialist when there is an issue of non-compliance, prompting them to initiate the withholding of 2% of the total Contract Price per month until the issue is resolved.
Form CHRO cc-258 (Submitted quarterly for projects of longer duration) and Form CHRO cc-258a (Submitted monthly for projects of shorter duration) are also required, with one copy going to CHRO and the other to CPCA, c/o Veronica Cook as follows:
