Most of our contracts include our PSU General Conditions which have provisions for Environmental Clean-Up; Environmental Contamination; Protection of Workers, Property and the Public; Compliance with Government Regulations (including EPA, DEA and OSHA).
We call out the following policies in all of our contracts: Professional Standards of Conduct; Equal Opportunity; and Prohibited Discrimination and Harrassment. We include a clause regarding Equity and Diversity which requires contractors/consultants to make good faith effort to subcontract, purchase materials, or establish joint ventures with MWESB's. And once again, the PSU General Conditions also reiterate these policies, intentions, and provisions.
