Common use of WORK REST & LENGTH OF ASSIGNMENT Clause in Contracts

WORK REST & LENGTH OF ASSIGNMENT. Contractors shall comply with the 2:1 work/rest ratio (for every 2 hours of work or travel, provide 1 hour of sleep and/or rest within a 24 hour period) as outlined in the NWCG Standards for Interagency Incident Business Management (Work/Rest Guidelines). When working an average of more than 16 hours, for the duration of the incident, a Contractor may request to negotiate an equitable adjustment through the Procurement Unit Leader or Contracting Officer. Shifts exceeding 16 hours shall be approved by the Incident Commander. Hours worked that exceed 16 hours in a 24-hour period must be approved by the IC or Agency Administrator. Documentation shall include mitigation measures used to reduce fatigue. To mitigate exceeding length of assignment guidelines and manage the days of rest, the Government has the option to: (1) Request the Contractor to provide replacement personnel. Replacement personnel are subject to the work/rest and length of assignment guidelines and must arrive at the incident fully rested. The Government will not pay transportation cost for replacement personnel. (2) Release resources after a 14-day assignment or follow length of assignment extension guidelines as stated in NWCG Standards for Interagency Incident Business Management. (3) With the Governments agreement, the contractor may choose to have their personnel remain at the incident base camp and not be placed on shift to allow proper rest. The time is not compensable when the Contractor is off shift in compliance with the length of assignment provisions.
