Final Rule on Nondisplacement of Workers Performing Service Contracts
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.03.13
On December 21, 2012, the government issued a final rule that requires incoming contractors to offer qualified employees of the predecessor contractor and its subcontractors a right of first refusal of employment if the positions are covered by the Service Contract Act, unless a waiver is obtained or an exception applies. The rule, which is effective January 18, 2013, implements Executive Order 13495 and the Labor Department's regulations on Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers Under Service Contracts.

After hosting a series of workshops and issuing multiple rounds of materials, including enforcement notices, checklists, templates, and other guidance, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) has proposed regulations to implement the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act (SB 253) and the Climate-Related Financial Risk Act (SB 261) (both as amended by SB 219), which require large U.S.-based businesses operating in California to disclose greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate-related risks. CARB also published a Notice of Public Hearing and an Initial Statement of Reasons along with the proposed regulations. While CARB’s final rules were statutorily required to be promulgated by July 1, 2025, these are still just proposals. CARB’s proposed rules largely track earlier guidance regarding how CARB intends to define compliance obligations, exemptions, and key deadlines, and establish fee programs to fund regulatory operations.
