status of any person rendering services or involved with the Agreement, the awarding
agency must be contacted immediately for clarification.
Current State Employees (Pub. Contract Code §10410):
1). No officer or employee shall engage in any employment, activity or enterprise from
which the officer or employee receives compensation or has a financial interest and
which is sponsored or funded by any state agency, unless the employment, activity or
enterprise is required as a condition of regular state employment.
2). No officer or employee shall contract on his or her own behalf as an independent
contractor with any state agency to provide goods or services.
Former State Employees (Pub. Contract Code §10411):
1). For the two-year period from the date he or she left state employment, no former state
officer or employee may enter into a contract in which he or she engaged in any of the
negotiations, transactions, planning, arrangements or any part of the decision-making
process relevant to the contract while employed in any capacity by any state agency.
2). For the twelve-month period from the date he or she left state employment, no former
state officer or employee may enter into a contract with any state agency if he or she was
employed by that state agency in a policy-making position in the same general subject
area as the proposed contract within the 12-month period prior to his or her leaving state
service.
If Contractor violates any provisions of above paragraphs, such action by Contractor shall
render this Agreement void. (Pub. Contract Code §10420)

payment other than payment of each meeting of the board or commission, payment for

2. LABOR CODE/WORKERS' COMPENSATION: Contractor needs to be aware of the
provisions which require every employer to be insured against liability for Worker's
