Insurance Requirements for Professional Servi
ces
Contractor shall procure and maintain fo
r the duration of the contract insurance against
claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder by the Contractor, its agents, representatives, or employees.

MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE
Coverage shall be at least as broad as:

1. Commercial General Liability (CGL): Insurance Services Office Form CG 00 01 covering CGL on an “occurrence” basis, including products and completed operations, property damage, bodily injury and personal & advertising injury with limits no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence. If a general aggregate limit applies, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project/location (ISO CG 25 03 or 25 04) or the general aggregate limit shall be twice the required occurrence limit.

2. Automobile Liability: Insurance Services Office Form Number CA 0001 covering, Code 1 (any auto), or if Contractor has no owned autos, Code 8 (hired) and 9 (non- owned), with limit no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.

3. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California, with Statutory Limits, and Employer’s Liability Insurance with limit of no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.
(Not required if Contractor provides written verification it has no employees)

4. Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) Insurance appropriate to the Contractor’s profession, with
limit no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence or claim,
$2,000,000 aggregate. (If Claims-made, see below.)
It shall be a requirement under this agreement that any available insurance proceeds broader than or in excess of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or limits shall be available to the Additional Insured. Furthermore, the requirements for coverage and limits shall be (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this

EXHIBIT C

Page 19 of 36 ends

EXHIBIT 1
Agreement; or (2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any Insurance policy or proceeds available to the named insured; whichever is greater. No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the Contractor under this agreement.

Limits of Insurance
The limits of insurance required in this agreement may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis before the City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.

Other Insurance Provisions
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:

Additional Insured Status
The City of Stockton, i
ts officers, officials, employees, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds on the CGL policy with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of the Contractor including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations. General liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the Contractor’s insurance (at least as broad as ISO Form CG 20 10 11 85 or if not available, through the addition of both CG 20 10, CG 20 26, CG 20 33, or CG 20 38; and CG 20 37 if a later edition is used). Additional insured Name of Organization shall read “City of Stockton, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers.” Policy shall cover City of Stockton, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers for all locations work is done under this contract.

Primary Coverage
The Additional Insured coverage under the Contractor’s policy shall be “primary and non-contr
ibutory” and will not seek contribution from the City’s insurance or self- insurance and shall be at least as broad as CG 20 01 04 13. The City of Stockton does not accept endorsements limiting the Contractor’s insurance coverage to the sole negligence of the Named Insured.

Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy required above shall st
ate that coverage shall not be
canceled, except with notice to the City of Stockton.

EXHIBIT C

Page 20 of 36 ends

EXHIBIT 1
Waiver of Subrogation
Contractor hereby grants to City of Stockton a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Contractor may acquire against the City of Stockton by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Contractor agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the City of Stockton has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer. The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City of Stockton for all work performed by the Contractor, its employees, agents and subcontractors.

Self-Insured Retentions
All Self-insured retentions must be disclosed to Risk Management for approval and shall not reduce the limits of liability. The City of Stockton may require the Contractor to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention.

The policy language shall provide, or be endorsed to provide, that the self-insured retention may be satisfied by either the named insured or City of Stockton.

Acceptability of Insurers
Insurance is to be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise acceptable to the City of Stockton.

Claims Made Policies (note – applicable only to professional liability) If any of the required policies provide coverage on a claims-made basis:

1. The Retroactive Date must be shown and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of contract work.

2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work.

3. If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims- made policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the contract effective date, the Contractor must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of contract work.

EXHIBIT C

Page 21 of 36 ends

EXHIBIT 1
Verification of Coverage
Contractor shall furnish t
he City of Stockton with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City of Stockton Risk Services before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive the Contractor’s obligation to provide them. The City of Stockton reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.

Contractor shall, prior to the commencement of work under this Agreement, provide the City of Stockton with a copy of its declarations page(s) and endorsement page(s) for each of the required policies.

Subcontractors
Contractors shall require and verify that all subcontractors, or other parties hired for this work, purchase a
nd maintain coverage for indemnity and insurance requirements as least as broad as specified in this agreement to the extent they apply to the scope of the subcontractor’s work with the same certificate of insurance requirements and naming as additional insureds all parties to this contract. Contractor shall include the following language in their agreement with Subcontractors: “Subcontractors hired by Contractor agree to be bound to Contractor and City in the same manner and to the same extent as Contractor is bound to City under the contract documents and provide a valid certificate of insurance and the required endorsements included in the agreement as proof of compliance prior to commencement of any work and to include this same requirement for any subcontractors they hire for this work. A copy of the owner contract document indemnity and insurance provisions will be furnished to the subcontractor upon request.” Contractor shall provide proof of such compliance and verification to the City upon request.

Special Risks or Circumstances
City of Stockton reserves the right to modify these requirements, includin g limits, based
on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.

Certificate Holder Address

CITY MANAGER ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTIVE
Directive No. HR-15 Page No. 1 of 14
DISCRIMINATION AND Effective Date: Revised From:

HARASSMENT POLICY 7/27/09
5/1/2015 4/6/09
3/1/2010
(see below)
PER-015 (Sexual Harassment in the Workplace) revised from 10/21/94, 5/1/95, 1/1/98 PER-037 (Sexual Harassment Investigative Procedures) revised from 2/15/93 I. PURPOSE
The purpose of this policy is to reaffirm the City's commitment to demonstrating respect for all individuals by strictly prohibiting discrimination and harassment, including sexual harassment in the workplace. This policy defines prohibited behavior and conduct, and sets forth a procedure for reporting, investigating and resolving complaints of discrimination, harassment, in the workplace, including retaliation and hostile work environment.

II. POLICY
A. The City of Stockton prohibits any form of discrimination and/or harassment of any person based on race, religious creed,
color, national origin, ancestry,
military and veterans status, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic characteristics or information, denial of family and medical care leave, marital status, sexual orientation, sex (including gender, gender identity, gender expression, transgender, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding), political affiliation, age (40 and older), concerted labor activity, or any other category or attribute consistent with state or federal law.

All such discrimination and harassment is unlawful and shall not be tolerated.
