RESPONSIBILITY FOR EMPLOYEES To the extent that the Contract involves the provision of the Services to UNDP by the Contractor’s officials, employees, agents, servants, subcontractors and other representatives (collectively, the Contractor’s “personnel”), the following provisions shall apply:
8.1 The Contractor is responsible for and shall assume all risk and liabilities relating to its personnel and property.
8.2 The Contractor shall be responsible for the professional and technical competence of the personnel it assigns to perform work under the Contract and will select reliable and competent individuals who will be able to effectively perform the obligations under the Contract and who, while doing so, will respect the local laws and customs and conform to a high standard of moral and ethical conduct.
8.3 Such Contractor personnel shall be professionally qualified and, if required to work with officials or staff of UNDP, shall be able to do so effectively. The qualifications of any personnel whom the Contractor may assign or may propose to assign to perform any obligations under the Contract shall be substantially the same, or better, as the qualifications of any personnel originally proposed by the Contractor.
8.4 At the option of and in the sole discretion of UNDP:
8.4.1 the qualifications of personnel proposed by the Contractor (e.g., a curriculum vitae) may be reviewed by UNDP prior to such personnel’s performing any obligations under the Contract;
8.4.2 any personnel proposed by the Contractor to perform obligations under the Contract may be interviewed by qualified staff or officials of UNDP prior to such personnel’s performing any obligations under the Contract; and,
8.4.3 in cases in which, pursuant to Article 8.4.1 or 8.4.2, above, UNDP has reviewed the qualifications of such Contractor’s personnel, UNDP may reasonably refuse to accept any such personnel.
8.5 Requirements specified in the Contract regarding the number or qualifications of the Contractor’s personnel may change during the course of performance of the Contract. Any such change shall be made only following written notice of such proposed change and upon written agreement between the Parties regarding such change, subject to the following:
8.5.1 UNDP may, at any time, request, in writing, the withdrawal or replacement of any of the Contractor’s personnel, and such request shall not be unreasonably refused by the Contractor.
8.5.2 Any of the Contractor’s personnel assigned to perform obligations under the Contract shall not be withdrawn or replaced without the prior written consent of UNDP, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
8.5.3 The withdrawal or replacement of the Contractor’s personnel shall be carried out as quickly as possible and in a manner that will not adversely affect the performance of obligations under the Contract.
8.5.4 All expenses related to the withdrawal or replacement of the Contractor’s personnel shall, in all cases, be borne exclusively by the Contractor.
8.5.5 Any request by UNDP for the withdrawal or replacement of the Contractor’s personnel shall not be considered to be a termination, in whole or in part, of the Contract, and UNDP shall not bear any liability in respect of such withdrawn or replaced personnel.
8.5.6 If a request for the withdrawal or replacement of the Contractor’s personnel is not based upon a default by or failure on the part of the Contractor to perform its obligations in accordance with the Contract, the misconduct of the personnel, or the inability of such personnel to reasonably work together with UNDP officials and staff, then the Contractor shall not be liable by reason of any such request for the withdrawal or replacement of the Contractor’s personnel for any delay in the performance by the Contractor of its obligations under the Contract that is substantially the result of such personnel’s being withdrawn or replaced.
8.6 Nothing in Articles 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5, above, shall be construed to create any obligations on the part of UNDP with respect to the Contractor’s personnel assigned to perform work under the Contract, and such personnel shall remain the sole responsibility of the Contractor.
8.7 The Contractor shall be responsible for requiring that all personnel assigned by it to perform any obligations under the Contract and who may have access to any premises or other property of UNDP shall:
8.7.1 undergo or comply with security screening requirements made known to the Contractor by UNDP, including but not limited to, a review of any criminal history;
8.7.2 when within UNDP premises or on UNDP property, display such identification as may be approved and furnished by UNDP security officials, and that upon the withdrawal or replacement of any such personnel or upon termination or completion of the Contract, such personnel shall immediately return any such identification to UNDP for cancellation.
8.8 Within one working day after learning that any of Contractor’s personnel who have access to any UNDP premises have been charged by law enforcement authorities with an offense other than a minor traffic offense, the Contractor shall provide written notice to inform UNDP about the particulars of the charges then known and shall continue to inform UNDP concerning all substantial developments regarding the disposition of such charges.
8.9 All operations of the Contractor, including without limitation, storage of equipment, materials, supplies and parts, within UNDP premises or on UNDP property shall be confined to areas authorized or approved by UNDP. The Contractor’s personnel shall not enter or pass through and shall not store or dispose of any of its equipment or materials in any areas within UNDP premises or on UNDP property without appropriate authorization from UNDP.
8.10 The Contractor shall (i) put in place an appropriate security plan and maintain the security plan, taking into account the security situation in the country where the Services are being provided; and
