Government contractors have the responsibility to comply with labor laws, which are administered and enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor through over 180 federal laws. However, many contractors find it daunting to navigate and comply with these regulations, often unaware that they are not in compliance. The Onsi Group specializes in assisting government contractors to ease their journey towards compliance. Our range of services includes Fringe Benefit Tracking, Consulting, Auditing, and Compliance Training. Here’s what sets our services apart:

Fringe Benefit Tracking

We excel in tracking fringe benefits in two key areas of contract administration and prevailing wage compliance: the Service Contract Act (SCA) and the Davis-Bacon Act (DBA) requirements, as well as Department of Labor Investigation Defense. While contractors may have access to free resources on SCA and DBA laws, applying these laws to their business processes and procedures can be challenging. We collaborate with contractors to ensure proper tracking of fringe benefits in their contracts, be it under SCA or DBA. This verification helps confirm that employees receive the benefits they are entitled to, preventing potential back wage issues arising from underpaid benefits.

Department of Labor Investigation Defense

Contractors who inadvertently underpay employees or mishandle benefit distribution may face Department of Labor investigations. Navigating this investigation process can be daunting, particularly for first-time contractors. Our in-house experts provide guidance throughout the investigation, ensuring contractors follow the necessary steps. We offer a virtual course specifically designed to cover Department of Labor (DOL) investigations. Additionally, our experts are available for one-on-one consultations to address any questions or concerns about the investigation. However, we emphasize the importance of regular auditing to proactively identify and rectify any mistakes before they escalate.

Auditing

Regular auditing is a fundamental practice that contractors should adopt to ensure compliance with labor laws. Onsi Group offers auditing services to assist contractors in reviewing their procedures and ensuring compliance with the provisions of the Service Contract Act (SCA), Davis-Bacon Act (DBA), Davis-Bacon Related Acts (DBRA), and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Through our comprehensive review and analysis, contractors gain a clear understanding of which regulations they may be currently failing to meet.

Compliance Training

Comprehending the significance of compliance with Prevailing Wage laws is essential for all government contractors. Researching these laws without guidance can be overwhelming due to the vast amount of information available. Our compliance training provides in-depth knowledge about SCA and other Prevailing Wage laws, with the opportunity to receive feedback from our in-house experts in both virtual and in-person sessions. Before each training, our team ensures that all provided resources are up to date, consistently adding new material to enhance the learning experience. Our mission is to empower attendees to leverage the law through continuous learning during every training session. At The Onsi Group, our commitment is to alleviate the burdens and uncertainties faced by government contractors when it comes to labor law compliance. We understand the complexities involved and provide comprehensive solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of each contractor. With our expertise in fringe benefit tracking, consulting, auditing, and compliance training, we strive to empower contractors with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the intricate landscape of labor laws. By partnering with us, government contractors can focus on their core business operations, knowing that they are supported by a trusted ally in achieving full compliance and peace of mind.
