Stone Door Group strictly prohibits misleading or fraudulent recruiting practices during the recruitment of both local and migrant employees. All labor recruiters working for or with the Stone Door Group and its suppliers and subcontractors have committed to provide complete and accurate information to all employees regarding the assignment they are being offered (see below). Stone Door Group audits subcontractors and suppliers, including labor recruiters without advance notice, on a regular basis, and requires remediation of all identified nonconformities. Failure to properly address audit issues will have business consequences, up to and including termination and disbarment from future contracts. Any violations of FAR requirements could result in the Stone Door Group terminating the contract of a subcontractor or agent. Additionally, Stone Door Group will report all identified violations of FAR 52.222-50 (b) and remedial action(s) taken, as well any credible information it receives from any source that alleges conduct in violation of FAR 52.222-50 (b) to the appropriate contracting officer.
