H. The Contractor shall post on each project site a notice, in the text, form and manner prescribed by the Texas Workers'
Compensation Commission, informing all persons providing services on the project that they are required to be
covered, and stating how a person may verify coverage and report lack of coverage.
I. The Contractor shall contractually require each person with whom it contracts to provide services on a project to:
(1) Provide coverage, based on reporting of classification codes and payroll amounts and filing of any coverage
agreements, which meets the statutory requirements of Texas Labor Code, Section 401.011(44) for all its
employees providing services on the project, for the duration of the project.
(2) Provide to the Contractor, prior to that person beginning work on the project a certificate of coverage
showing that coverage is being provided for all employees of the person providing services on the project, for
the duration of the project.
(3) Provide the Contractor, prior to the end of coverage period, a new certificate of coverage showing extension
of coverage, if the coverage period shown on the current certificate of coverage ends during the duration of
the project.
(4) Obtain from each other person with whom it contracts, and provide to the Contractor:
(a) A certificate of coverage, prior to the other person beginning work on the project, and
(b) a new certificate of coverage showing extension of coverage, prior to the end of the coverage period,
if the coverage period shown on the current certificate of coverage ends during the duration of the
project;
(5) Retain all required certificates of coverage on file for the duration of the project and for one (1) year
thereafter.
(6) Notify the government entity in writing by certified mail or personal delivery, within ten (10) days after the
person knew or should have known, of any change that materially affects the provision of coverage of any
person providing services on the project; and
(7) Contractually require each person with whom it contracts, to perform as required by paragraphs (1) - (7),
with the certificates of coverage to be provided to the person for whom they are providing services.
J. By signing this contract or providing or causing to be provided a certificate of coverage, the Contractor is representing
to the governmental entity that all employees of the contractor who will provide services on the project will be covered
by workers' compensation coverage for the duration of the project, that the coverage will be based on proper reporting
of classification codes and payroll amounts, and that all coverage agreements will be filed with the appropriate
insurance carrier or, in the case of a self-insured, with the commission's Division of Self-Insurance Regulation.
Providing false or misleading information may subject the contractor to administrative penalties, criminal penalties,
civil penalties, or other civil actions.
K. The Contractor's failure to comply with any of these provisions is a breach of contract by the contractor which
entitles the governmental entity to declare the contract void if the Contractor does not remedy the breach
within ten
(10) days after receipt of notice of breach from the governmental entity.
