<br /> 1. That it will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color,
<br /> religion, sex, marital status, national origin or ancestry, age, physical or mental handicap unrelated to
<br /> ability, sexual orientation, or an unfavorable discharge from military service, and further that it will
<br /> examine all job classifications to determine if minority persons or women are underutilized and will take
<br /> appropriate affirmative action to rectify any such underutilization.
<br /> 2. That, if it hires additional employees in order to perform this contract or any portion thereof, it will
<br /> determine the availability (in accordance with the DepartmenYs Rules and Regulations) of minorities and
<br /> women in the area(s) from which it may reasonably recruit and it will hire for each job classification for
<br /> which employees are hired in such a way that minorities and women are not underutilized.
<br /> 3. That, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by it or on its behalf, it will state that all
<br /> applicants will be afforded equal opportunity without discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex,
<br /> marital status, national origin or ancestry, age, physical or mental handicap unrelated to ability, sexual
<br /> orientation, or an unfavorable discharge from military service.
<br /> 4. That it will send to each labor organization or representative of workers with which it has or is bound by a
<br /> collective bargaining or other agreement or understanding, a notice advising such labor organization or
<br /> representative of the contractor's obligations under the Illinois Human Rights Act and the Department's
<br /> Rules and Regulations. If any such labor organization or representative fails or refuses to cooperate with
<br /> the contractor in its efforts to comply with such Act and Rules and Regulations, the contractor will
<br /> promptly so notify the Department and the contracting agency and will recruit employees from other �'
<br /> sources when necessary to fulfill its obligations thereunder. ,
<br /> 5. That it will submit reports as required by the Department's Rules and Regulations, furnish all relevant �

<br /> Illinois Human Rights Act and the DepartmenYs Rules and Regulations.
<br /> 7. That it will include verbatim or by reference the provisions of this clause in every subcontract it awards
<br /> under which any portion of the contract obligations are undertaken or assumed, so that such provisions
<br /> will be binding upon such contractor. In the same manner as with other provisions of this contract, the
<br /> contractor will be liable for compliance with applicable provisions of this clause by such subcontractors;
<br /> and further it will promptly notify the contracting agency and the Department in the event any
<br /> subcontractor fails or refuses to comply therewith. In addition, the contractor will not utilize any
<br /> subcontractor declared by the Illinois Human Rights Commission to be ineligible for contracts or
<br /> subcontracts with the State of Illinois or any of its political subdivisions or municipal corporations.
