Another “Rent-a-Vet” Scheme Settlement | PNWC’s Government Contracting Update

The New York Foundation for Fair Contracting (NYFFC) is a not-for-profit organization established to support, promote and encourage fair contracting by leveling the playing field in public works construction for the benefit of taxpayers, contractors and workers (online source). According to NYFFC, not all construction contractors play by the rules. Unfortunately a number of them skimp on safety, cheat workers out of wages and use shoddy materials. When this happens, the construction industry, the taxpayers and the local economy pay the price. The NYFFC works to ensure that only responsible contractors – contractors that pay the proper wages, perform quality  workmanship and complete projects on-time – are awarded the opportunity to perform work on public works contracts.
