Department of Labor August 16, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

With this final rule, the Department of Labor (DOL) is revising the Department of Labor Acquisition Regulation (DOLAR) to remove provisions from the regulation that were redundant or obsolete. The final rule also codifies the use of certain contractual provisions that DOL has developed and deployed in recent years. Those newly codified contractual provisions address a range of matters, including government property, continuity of operations, system requirements, records management, telework policy for contractor personnel, submission of invoices, mandatory training for contractors, organizational conflicts of interest, and notification of changes to the scope of a contract. The final rule also includes revisions intended for greater clarity. Finally, the final rule removes provisions from the prior regulation that were DOL internal operating procedures.
