FAR and DFARS › FAR Part 22: Application of Labor Laws to Government Acquisitions › Subpart 22.1

FAR 22.103-5 Contract clauses.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This section tells contracting officers which labor-related clauses to put into certain solicitations and contracts. It matters to contractors because it determines whether clauses about labor-dispute notices and overtime premium payments will appear in their contract.

Applies to: Contracting officers and contractors on solicitations and contracts involving designated programs or cost-reimbursement contracts

Key terms: Notice to the Government of Labor Disputes · Payment for Overtime Premiums · cost-reimbursement contract · simplified acquisition threshold · cost-plus-incentive-fee contract
