Bidders to contracts awarded pursuant to Chapter 153. of the Revised Code by an owner referred to section 153.01 of the Revised Code or awarded by the director of transportation pursuant to Chapter 5525. of the Revised Code must apply for a certificate of compliance to the state equal employment opportunity coordinator. Application shall be made on the form and according to the instructions established by the state equal employment opportunity coordinator.
Where the state equal employment opportunity coordinator determines that a bidder has not committed any violation of any affirmative action program with which the bidder was required to comply during the previous five years, the coordinator shall issue a dated certificate of compliance that is valid for one hundred eighty days.
The bidder is solely responsible for the completeness and the accuracy of its application for certificate of compliance. The state equal employment opportunity coordinator may determine a bidder to have violated an affirmative action program it was required to comply with, if the coordinator determines the bidder knowingly falsified its application for a certificate of compliance or knowingly omitted information requested by the application for certificate of compliance.
