• Statement of Work

You have requested that we supply certain of our employees to you on a temporary basis to supplement your own work force. We will supply such workers to you (“Assigned Workers”) as you may from time to time request, to work under your direction, control, and supervision.

• Persons to Be Sent to You

Once this Agreement is signed, we will, at your request, send Assigned Workers to work at your premises. We will send only persons who have been approved by you for the assignment.

We are responsible for assigning to you workers with the skills and abilities you specify. We are not your legal partner, co-venturer, principal, agent, insurer, or representative. Neither we nor any Assigned Workers have any claim to your revenues related to their work. You are solely responsible for meeting your goals for profits, costs, production, and scheduling. Assigned Workers have no authority to bind us legally.

• Assigned Workers

We will pay the wages of the Assigned Workers, and we will be responsible for withholding all income and Social Security taxes from their wages and for paying workers’ compensation insurance premiums, state and federal unemployment insurance taxes, and the employer’s share of Social Security taxes on their behalf.

• Direction and Supervision

We are supplying the Assigned Workers to you to supplement your own work force. You will direct and supervise the Assigned Workers on the job. We are not supplying persons to supervise or oversee the Assigned Workers during their assignment to you unless otherwise agreed to in writing.

• Guarantee

It is possible that Assigned Workers abilities will not be up to your expectations. You have the right at all times to end the assignment of any Assigned Worker we send to you. Furthermore, if you become dissatisfied with the performance of any of the Assigned Workers during the first two (2) workdays of their assignment to you, you may cancel their assignment by calling us within the time frame and telling us that you are dissatisfied. We will not bill you for the time spent by an Assigned Worker whose assignment has been ended in this way. However, if you keep an Assigned Worker on assignment for more than two (2) workdays, it is agreed that the Assigned Worker’s performance is deemed to be satisfactory and you will pay the entire bill for such Assigned Worker when it is rendered. However, if we remove any Assigned Worker from an assignment at your direction, we may, nonetheless, refuse to assign replacement workers or assign other workers if, in our judgment, such action is legally required or advisable.

• Our Responsibilities

In general, in regard to the Assigned Workers assigned to you by us under this Agreement, our responsibilities include the following:

• Maintaining personnel and payroll records

• Calculating and paying wages

• Withholding and remitting payroll taxes and other government-mandated charges

• Hiring, assigning, reassigning, counseling, disciplining, and discharging

• Handling employee work-related claims and complaints

Prior to beginning their assignments, Assigned Workers will be asked to acknowledge that they have no right to participate in your employee benefit plans, fringe benefit plans, or your personnel policy.

We are not undertaking to provide you with a specific design, engineering, or system concept or solution to a particular problem. Accordingly, we do not warrant or guarantee that the Assigned Workers will produce a technical solution to your particular problem or need. Rather, the Assigned Workers are provided to augment your existing technical capabilities to perform such technical services as you may direct.

• Disclaimer of Liability

We expressly disclaim liability for any claim, loss, or liability of any kind resulting from

• Your failure to adequately supervise or control Assigned Workers or safeguard your premises, processes, or systems; or without our express prior written approval, entrusting Assigned Workers with unattended premises, cash, checks, keys, credit cards, merchandise, confidential or trade secret information, negotiable instruments, or other valuables.

• Your requesting or permitting Assigned Workers to use any vehicle, regardless of ownership, in connection with the performance of services for you unless we have given our prior approval in writing.

• A violation or breach by you of any law, statute, or regulation.

• Property damage or personal injury, including death, arising out of or resulting from acts or omissions of the Assigned Workers.

9. Billing, Payment, and Time Cards

We will send you a bill, generally each week, for all hours worked by the Assigned Workers since our previous billing, plus charges for any other properly billable items. These invoices are payable upon receipt.

Because invoices are principally based upon the number of hours or days worked by the Assigned Workers, we require each Assigned Worker to submit a weekly record of hours worked during that week.. Your representative will also have the opportunity to sign the Assigned Worker’s time card to verify that the Assigned Worker has worked, for you, the hours/days listed on the time card. However, if your representative does not sign the timecard within three (3) business days, it will be presumed to be accurate and you agree to pay for the time indicated and to abide by the other terms contained on the time card.

You will remain liable to pay any unpaid charges, and the provisions of Paragraphs 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 18, and 19 of this agreement will remain in effect notwithstanding termination.
