Actual price of meal is $2.85, which represents a 5% increase over the previous year. The reasons for the increase are: higher transportation costs from gasoline hikes; increase in costs of meats and dairy products because of environmental clean-up requirements, and higher prices for fruits and vegetables because of effects of hurricanes and storms in agricultural areas. Since the costs were not increased last year, this represents an actual change of 2 1/2% each year.

Attachment A-I MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURES CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL Introduction to Other Contractors and Subcontractors Section This section of the manual will apply to Vendors and Contractors supplying goods or services to the County which are not in connection with a construction project. The insurance requirements for Agreements/Contracts which supply goods or services associated with construction projects should be governed by the Construction Contractors section of this manual. The types and amounts of insurance will be determined based on the type of service or goods provided and the projected payment to the Vendor. The fact that the funds used to pay for the goods or services were obtained from Federal, State, or other grants is not material. A special matrix of for this section has been developed to assist in the establishment of the proper insurance coverages and limits. As a general rule, all agreements will include as a minimum: . Indemnification and Hold Hannless Provisions . General Insurance Requirements . W orkers' Compensa~ion Provisions . General Liability Provisions and . Vehicle Liability Provisions Questions should be directed to Risk Management at (305) 292-4542. 8 Attachment A-I, Continued RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURES CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL General Insurance Requirements for Other Contractors and Subcontractors As a pre-requisite of the work governed, or the goods supplied under this contract (including the pre-staging of personnel and material), the Contractor shall obtain, at his/her own expense, insurance as specified in any attached schedules, which are made part of this contract. The Contractor will ensure that the insurance obtained will extend protection to all Subcontractors engaged by the Contractor. As an alternative, the Contractor may require all Subcontractors to obtain insurance consistent with the attached schedules. The Contractor will not be permitted to commence work governed by this contract (including pre-staging of personnel and material) until satisfactory evidence of the required insurance has been furnished to the County as specified below. Delays in the commencement of work, resulting from the failure of the Contractor to provide satisfactory evidence of the required insurance, shall not extend deadlines specified in this contract and any penalties and failure to perform assessments shall be imposed as if the work commenced on the specified date and time, except for the Contractor's failure to provide satisfactory evidence. The Contractor shall maintain the required insurance throughout the entire term of this contract and any extensions specified in the attached schedules. Failure to comply with this provision may result in the immediate suspension of all work until the required insurance has been reinstated or replaced. Delays in the completion of work resulting from the failure of the Contractor to maintain the required insurance shall not extend deadlines specified in this contract and any penalties and failure to perform assessments shall be imposed as if the work had not been suspended, except for the Contractor's failure to maintain the required insurance. The Contractor shall provide, to the County, as satisfactory evidence of the required insurance, either: · Certificate of Insurance or · A Certified copy of the actual insurance policy. The County, at its sole option, has the right to request a certified copy of any or all insurance policies required by this contract. 9 Attachment A-t. Continued All insw-ance policies must specify that they are not subject to cancellation, non-renewal, material change, or reduction in coverage unless a minimum of thirty (30) days prior notification is given to the County by the insurer. The acceptance and/or approval of the Contractor's insurance shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor from any liability or obligation assumed under this contract or imposed by law. The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, its employees and officials will be included as "Additional Insured" on all policies, except for Workers' Compensation. Any deviations from these General Insurance Requirements must be requested in writing on the County prepared form entitled "Request for Waiver of Insurance Requirements" and approved by Monroe County Risk Management. JO Attachment A-I. Continued Standard Insurance Reauirements As a general rule, all parties will be required to carry, as a minimum: . Workers' Compensation and Employers' Liability Insurance . General Liability Insurance and . Vehicle Liability Insurance The required limits will be contingent upon the nature and extent of the project or activity. A general overview of these coverages and other issues that may assist the user of this manual is provided in the section entitled Glossary. (following) Certificates of Insurance Verification that the party has obtained the necessary insurance, is usually accomplished by the furnishing of a Certificate of Insurance. A Certificate of Insurance summarizes the coverages that are being carried by the insured. It also specifies special provisions, such as Additional Insured. An industry standard form has been developed which is used by numerous insurance companies and agents. Upon receipt of a Certificate of Insurance, it shall be reviewed to ensure that it includes all required coverages, that the insurance company is acceptable, that it specifically names the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners as an Additional Insured, if required, and that the policy(ies) have not expired. The Certificate shall be filed with the contract documents and reviewed thirty days prior to the expiration date. At that time an updated certificate is required. A copy shall also be forwarded to Risk Management. General Procedures The insurance requirements shall be established in conjunction with the development of the project. The "Schedule of Insurance Requirements" contained within various sections of this Manual will be used as a basis for the establishment of the coverages that must be provided and must be included in all RFP's. Unless insurance is waived by Risk Management, the "Insurance Checklist" will be completed by the County's employee responsible for the project by marking the required coverages with an "X". The form contains instructions for the proposer's insurance agent to review and sign signifying that coverage is in place or will be obtained if awarded the project or contract. If the project is governed by a contract, the appropriate Insurance Forms will be included as part of the document and an original Certificate of Insurance, approved by Risk Management, is required for execution of the contract. Requests for a waiver or modification to the insurance requirements must be made in writing, and approved by Risk Management, utilizing the "Request for Waiver of Insurance Requirements" form. The reason why the waiver or modification is needed, the extent of coverage that can be provided, and any other pertinent information, such as sole supplier, etc. must be included on the request. 11 Attachment A-t. Continued MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURES CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL Glossary Workers' Compensation and Employers' Liability Insurance provides coverage for employees who suffer an on-the-job injury. Nearly all employers in the State of Florida are required, by statute, to purchase Workers' Compensation. Fines and penalties can be levied upon any firm that fails to comply with the law. More important, the County can be held responsible for the benefits owed to an employee of a contractor or subcontractor if they fail to maintain Workers' Compensation insurance. Since Monroe self-insures its workers' compensation exposure, the assumption of another firms claims could have serious economic impact on the County's budget. Workers' Compensation Insurance pays for the medical expenses of employees that suffer a job related injury. In addition, the injured employee is entitled to a portion (usually 66%) of his pre- injury wage, subject to a maximum established by the State. Normally, the injury must prevent the employee from working for a period of fourteen days before he can collect any lost wages. A standard Workers' Compensation policy does not have a specific limit and indicates that all statutory benefits will be paid. With few exceptions, benefits are paid without regard to fault and the employer has limited defenses available which will permit a denial of a claim. In return for this right, the employee waives his right to sue his employer under tort (negligence). This is commonly referred to as the .~Sole Remedy Provision". Since the coverage under a Workers' Compensation policy is so broad, most job related injuries are covered under this policy. Occasionally, coverage may not respond to the claim or the employee is successful in circumventing the Sole Remedy Provision. To protect the employer for such cases, most Workers' Compensation policies contain a separate section entitled "Employers' Liability". Unlike Compensation coverage, which has no specified limits, Employers' Liability coverage contains a per accident limit and a total policy limit. In addition, a separate limit for disease related claims often applies on a per employee basis. General Liability Insurance is designed to protect a firm from third party claims for bodily injury and property damage which arise out of the operations ofthe Organization. Third parties may be members of the public, another Contractor, or the County itself. Limits are usually provided on a per occurrence (accident) basis with a separate annual limit for all occurrences. There are two broad categories of General Liability Insurance. The first is offered on a "Claims Made Basis" and the second is offered on an "Occurrence Basis". A Claims Made policy requires that the claim be reported to the insurer during the policy period while an Occurrence policy will respond to an accident that took place during the policy term regardless of when the actual claim was made. 12 . , , Attachment A-t. Continued Normally, the County prefers that all General Liability Insurance be provided on an Occurrence Basis. Risk Management should be consulted to assist in the establishment of verification procedures whenever a Contractor provides a Claims Made policy. Another concern that deserves further discussion is Contractual Liability. Some General Liability policies exclude or limit coverage for liabilities assumed under contract. Unless Contractual Liability is provided, coverage for the County may not be available. Additional Insured is a method of allowing the County to have direct access to the Contractor's insurer in the event they are included in a law suit arising out of the performance of the contract. The County will generally require that they be added as an Additional Insured on all policies except Workers' Compensation. Vehicle Liability Insurance provides protection for vehicle related claims which are normally excluded from coverage under a General Liability policy. If automobiles will be used in conjunction with the project, Vehicle Liability Insurance will be required. Limits can be provided in two ways. Combined Single Limits (CSL) furnish a single amount of coverage for claims regardless whether they are for bodily injury or property damage. Split Limits furnish separate amounts for bodily injury claims and property damage claims. The County prefers CSL. Umbrella Insurance (Excess Liability Coverage), while not specifically included in the required coverages, is a type of insurance purchased by a firm in an effort to increase the limits of liability on their General and Vehicle Liability coverages. It often increases the Employers Liability limits as well. Frequently an Organization needs or desires higher limits than are traditionally available on primary insurance policies. Umbrella or Excess Liability Insurance fills this void. Professional Liability provides liability coverage for Claims arising out of the furnishing, or the failure to furnish professional services. Such claims are normally excluded from General Liability Insurance. ., Miscellaneous Other Coverages contained within this Manual, and not addressed above, can be discussed with Risk Management and further explanations can be obtained if questions or problems arise. Risk Management is a process designed to reduce losses and minimize the adverse effects of losses that do occur. Risk Management can be viewed in two dimensions: a decision process and a management process. Risk Management viewed as a decision process includes: v" The identification of exposure to loss; v" Evaluating the potential impact of a loss; v" Reviewing alternative techniques for handling the loss; v" Selecting the most appropriate technique; and v" Monitoring the results and making adjustments where needed. 13 Attachment A-t. Continued Risk Management viewed as a management process entails four basic functions: ./ Planning what must be done to protect the County against the adverse effects of accidental losses; ./ Organizing personnel and other resources to carry out the results of the planning; ./ Motivate personnel throughout the County to accomplish its goals; and ./ Monitor the results of the program, making adjustments where needed. 14 " , Attachment A-t.

Signature Bidder 19 .' l' Attachment A-I INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURES CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL OBJECTIVE and GENERAL PROCEDURES In recent years, society has seen an increase in the number of lawsuits filed in the court systems. Frequently when a suit is filed, anyone having a connection with the activity, which gave rise to the claim, are named as defendants, regardless of their contribution to the loss. Simple ownership of the property where the accident took place could expose the County to a lengthy and costly legal battle, even though it was not negligent in conducting its affairs. To reduce the number and cost of such claims, the County attempts to hold the party responsible for the claim accountable for their actions. This is accomplished in two (2) ways. First, the County requires that all parties doing work for, or on behalf of Monroe County, or utilizing County property provide an Indemnification and Hold Harmless agreement in favor of Monroe County. Such an agreement obligates them to protect and pay for any costs which the County might incur arising out of their activities, including providing a defense attorney to the County. Various forms of Iriaemnification and Hold Harmless agreements may be used, depending on the nature of the activity involved. The individual sections of this manual will specify which agreement is appropriate. All agreements are contained in the section titled Indemnification and Hold Harmless. 20 . . ... l Attachment A-I, continued INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY AND PROCEDURES CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL Indemnification and Hold Harmless for Other Contractors and Subcontractors The Contractor covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Monroe County Board of County Commissioners from any and all claims for bodily injury (including death), personal injury, and property damage (including property owned by Monroe County) and any other losses, damages, and expenses (including attorney's fees) which arise out of, in connection with, or by reason of services provided by the Contractor or any of its Subcontractor( s) in any tier, occasioned by the negligence, errors, or other wrongful act or omission of The Contractor or its Subcontractors in any tier, their employees, or agents. In the event the completion of the project (to include the work of others) is delayed or suspended as a result of the Contractor'.s failure to purchase or maintain the required insurance, the Contractor shall indemnify the County from any and all increased expenses resulting from such delay. The first ten dollars ($10.00) of remuneration paid to the Contractor is for the indemnification provided for above. The extent of liability is in no way limited to, reduced, or lessened by the insurance requirements contained elsewhere within this agreement. 21 Attachment B of Contract for Food Service.
