2. Contractor certifies by submission of this proposal that neither contractor nor any of its principals
are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from
participation in this transaction by any Federal department or agency; and
3. Contractor has not, nor has any successor to, nor an affiliate of, Contractor, engaged in
investment activities in Iran.
a. For purposes of this Certification, "Iran" means the government of Iran and any agency
or instrumentality of Iran, or as otherwise defined at Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-5, as
amended from time -to -time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time -to -time, a Contractor
is engaged in investment activities in Iran if either:
i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty
million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in value in the energy sector of Iran;
or
ii. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, is a financial institution that extends

Version 09/29/2021 Contractor's Bid for Public Works - 4
Contractor agrees that he/she/it shall enroll in and verify the work eligibility status of all of Contractor's
newly hired employees through the E-Verify Program as defined by I.C. 22-5-1.7-3. Contractor's
documentation of enrollment and participation in the E-Verify Program is included and attached as part of
this bid/quote; and
5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public contract to
certify that the subcontractors do not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien, nor retain
any employee or contract with a person that the subcontractor subsequently learns is an unauthorized alien,
and that the subcontractor has enrolled in and is participating in the E-Verify Program. The Contractor agrees
to maintain this certification throughout the term of the contract with the City of South Bend, and understands
that the City may terminate the contract for default if the Contractor fails to cure a breach of this provision
no later than thirty (30) days after being notified by the City.
6. Persons, firms, partnerships, corporations, associations, or joint venturers awarded a contract by the
City of South Bend through its agencies, boards, or commissions shall not discriminate against any employee
or applicant for employment in the performance of a City contract with respect to hire, tenure, terms,
conditions, or privileges of contract or employment, or any matter directly or indirectly related to contracting
or employment because of race, sex, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, gender expression, gender
identity, sexual orientation, or due to age or disability that does not affect that person's ability to perform the
work.
In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials, or any
combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts awarded under public
bidding laws or other contracts in which public bids are not required by law, the City, its agencies, boards,
or commissions will consider the Contractor's good faith efforts to obtain participation by those
subcontractors certified by the State of Indiana as a Minority Business ("MBE") or as a Women's Business
Enterprise ("WBE") as a factor in determining the lowest, responsible, responsive bidder.
Contractors seeking the award of a City contract cannot be required to award a subcontract to an MWBE;
however, they may not unlawfully discriminate against said MBE/WBE. On goal -eligible contracts,
Contractors are required to either meet both MBE and WBE utilization goals or demonstrate that the
Contractor has made good faith efforts to obtain participation from MBE and WBE subcontractors. A finding
of noncompliance or a discriminatory practice shall prohibit that Contractor from being awarded a City
contract for a period of one (1) year from the date of such determination, and such determination may also
be grounds for terminating the contact to which the discriminatory practice or noncompliance pertains.
7. The undersigned Contractor agrees that the following nondiscrimination commitment shall be made
a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South Bend, Indiana or any of its
agencies, boards or commissions.
Contractor agrees not to discriminate against or intimidate any employee or applicant for employment in the
performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter directly or indirectly related to
employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation,
handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of this provision may be regarded as material breach of
contract.
I, the undersigned bidder or agent as contractor on a public works project, understand my statutory
obligations to the use of steel products or foundry products made in the United States (I.C. 5-16-8-1).1 hereby
certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for this project will use steel products or foundry
products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I understand I have an affirmative duty to
notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not include the use of steel products or foundry products
made in the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a justification
to the City, subject to review and approval, why the cost of United States made steel or foundry products is
unreasonable. Prior to award and upon submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry
products made in the United States, the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination
if the price of United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations hereunder
Version 09/29/2021 Contractor's Bid for Public Works - 5
may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid
for public works are true and correct.

5.11 Substance Abuse
32 R. YODER CONSTRUCTION EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK
R. Yoder Construction has a strong commitment to its employees to provide a
safe work environment. This requires that personnel, equipment, and operating
practices be consistent with high standards of health and safety. R. Yoder
..............
Construction expects all employees to report for work free of alcohol and illegal
drugs. The presence of illegal drugs or alcohol on the job and the influence of these
..............
substances on employees are inconsistent with these objectives.
Our policy with respect to drugs is as follows:
..............
..............
1. R. Yoder Construction will conduct drug and/or alcohol testing under any of
the following circumstances: Pre -employment, Random, Reasonable Cause,
and Post -Accident Testing (see a fuller description of these circumstances on
..............
the next page for more information).
..............
2. The use, sale, distribution, possession, or being under the influence of
illegal drugs or alcohol by R. Yoder Construction employees while on the
..............
job or on R. Yoder Construction's property is prohibited. Likewise, you may
not distribute, misuse, or abuse any prescription medications on R. Yoder
..............
Construction premises or elsewhere during working time. Any individual
violating these rules will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including
immediate termination of employment.
..............
1 Individuals who appear to be under the influence of a controlled substance
will be removed from the job immediately and be subject to a drug or alcohol
test. An employee's refusal to comply with a drug or alcohol test will make
..............
them subject to automatic termination.
..............
..............
4. If an employee is injured on the job, the employee will be required to, at the
discretion of Management, submit to a drug and/or alcohol test. An employee
..............
testing positive for illegal drugs or found to be under the influence of alcohol
will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination. An
..............
employee's refusal to comply with a drug and alcohol test will make them
subject to automatic termination.
..............
..............
5. R. Yoder Construction's management reserves the right to authorize
inspections for possible policy violations. Any illegal substances will be
..............
turned over to the appropriate law enforcement and may result in criminal
prosecution.
..............
..............
NOTE EMPLOYEES USING A PRESCRIPTION DRUG that may impair their physical
..............
or mental ability and affect their ability to perform duties safely MUST REPORT
this to management before reporting to work after its use. A determination will be
made by the company if the employee's work assignment is affected. Failure to do
so will cause the employee to be subject to disciplinary action up to and including
immediate termination of employment.
..............
Following is a more complete description of the circumstances when R. Yoder
..............
Construction will conduct drug and/or alcohol testing:
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS & SERVICES 33
..............
+ PRE -EMPLOYMENT TESTING: Each individual offered employment must pass
a drug test as a condition of employment. Management has the right to waive
..............
this requirement on an individual basis.
+ RANDOM TESTING: Employees may be selected at random for drug testing at
..............
any interval determined by the Company.
..............
+ REASONABLE CAUSE TESTING: The Company may ask an employee to
..............
submit to a drug and/or alcohol test at any time it has reasonable cause
to believe that the employee may be under the influence of drugs or
..............
alcohol during working hours, including, but not limited to, the following
circumstances: observation of drug use, evidence of drugs or alcohol on or
about the employee's person or in the employee's vicinity during working
..............
hours, specific observations concerning the appearance, behavior, speech,
or body odors of an employee, unusual conduct on the employee's part as
..............
evidenced by the employee's work time actions, appearance, or conduct,
arrest or conviction for a drug- and/or alcohol -related offense (about which
employees are required to notify HR within 3 calendar days).
..............
+ POST -ACCIDENT TESTING: Any employee involved in an on-the-job accident
or injury that results in (a) death, (b) bodily injury that requires medical
treatment away from the scene of the accident, or (c) property damage of at
....
least $250.00 will be asked to submit to a drug and/or alcohol test. "Involved
..........
in an on-the-job accident or injury" means not only the one who was or could
have been injured but also any employee who potentially contributed to the
accident or injury event in any way. Near misses may be subject to testing
under this policy as well. An employee who does not report an injury on the
..............
day of occurrence and is required to seek medical assistance at a later date
. . . . . . . . . . may be subject to a drug test.
..............
..............
..
Voluntary Identification and Rehabilitation/Treatment
............
..............
..............
An employee who voluntarily says he has a drug- or alcohol -related problem
will not be subject to discipline for volunteering that fact. Instead, the employee
may request an unpaid leave of absence to undergo rehabilitation or treatment to
overcome dependence on drugs or alcohol or to participate in other programs
recommended by a substance abuse professional.
..............
This leave will be in accordance with the terms and conditions of leave policies.
..............
..............
Since the key to rehabilitation is the willingness to admit and seek to remedy the
problem, this provision is not available to one who requests help (1) after being
. . . asked to submit to testing or (2) after the employee's use of drugs or alcohol
..............
becomes a personnel issue based on direct observation or evidence obtained from
an arrest or criminal conviction for a drug- or alcohol -related offense. Further,
employees who volunteer such information and participate in a rehabilitation/
treatment program must still comply with rules concerning alcohol and drugs and
will be subject to discipline for a violation.
