Employment Projections In all solicitations under this Contract, the Contractor shall state that all qualified applicants will be considered for employment. The words “equal opportunity employer” in advertisements shall constitute compliance with this section. No Conflict with Federal Requirements. As indicated by HUD Notice CPD 04-10, a faith-based organization’s exemption from the federal prohibition on employment discrimination on the basis of religion, set forth in 42 USC 2000e-1(a), is not forfeited when the organization receives HUD funding. Faith-based organizations, like any other entity participating in a HUD-funded program, must, however, comply with all the statutory requirements of that particular HUD-funded program. Both the CDBG and HOME Programs contain statutory provisions imposing non-discrimination requirements on all subrecipients, subgrantees or contractors. Religious organizations that believe that certain non-discrimination statutory requirements are substantially burdensome may be entitled to protection under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act [42 USC4000bb-3, 4000bb-2(1)] which applies to all federal law and its implementation. Subrecipients, subgrantees, or contractors should be aware that anti-discrimination provisions of Section 109 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, Section 282 of the HOME Investment partnership Act may pose questions of conformance with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and future court rulings could define more specifically the application of these laws to faith-based organizations. In the event that a provision of this Contract is deemed to be in actual conflict with federal law, the conflicting provision in this Contract shall not apply.
