Summary
for the FAR rule follows. For the actual

this FAR case, refer to the specific item
number and subject set forth in the

FAC 2005–96 amends the FAR as

Pmangrum on DSK3GDR082PROD with RULES2
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Removal of Fair Pay and Safe
Workplaces Rule (FAR Case 2017–015)
This final rule rescinds the final rule
at 81 FR 58562 (August 25, 2016). This
was FAR Case 2014–025, Fair Pay and
Safe Workplaces, which was a
significant rule under Executive Order
(E.O.) 12866 and a major rule under 5
U.S.C. 804. Because of a Federal court
injunction, the only provision or clause
that had gone into effect was FAR
52.222–60, Paycheck Transparency
(Executive Order 13673), which was
included in solicitations starting on
January 1, 2017. On March 27, 2017,
Public Law 115–11 disapproved the rule
under the Congressional Review Act.
Therefore, by law, the rule has no force
or effect, including the FAR 52.222–60
clause. Also on March 27, 2017, E.O.
13782, Revocation of Federal
Contracting Executive Orders, rescinded
the E.O.s that originally authorized the
rule. All steps should be taken to ensure
that no sections, provisions, or clauses
of the final rule are implemented.
