15.23. INDEPENDENT CAPACITY OF THE CONTRACTOR
The parties to this Contract, in the performance of it, will be acting in their individual capacities and not as agents,

considered or construed to be employees or agents of the other party for any purpose whatsoever. Moreover,
Contractor/Recipient shall not hold themselves out as employees of OPD.
As provided in Chapter 236 Laws of 2012 and Washington Public Employees' Retirement System RCW 41.40.010
section 13(c), Contractor/Recipient and any employees of Contractor/Recipient providing services under this
Contract are not, as a result of providing services under this Contract, eligible for any public benefits, including

15.24. INSURANCE INDUSTRIAL COVERAGE
If required by law, Contractor/Recipient shall provide or purchase industrial insurance coverage prior to performing
work under this Contract. OPD will not be responsible for payment of industrial insurance premiums or for any other
claim or benefit for Contractor/Recipient or any authorized subcontractor or employee of Contractor/Recipient that
might arise under the industrial insurance laws during the performance of duties and services under this Contract. If
the Department of Labor and Industries, upon audit, determines that industrial insurance payments are due and
owing as a result of work performed under this Contract, those payments shall be made by Contractor/Recipient;
Contractor/Recipient shall indemnify OPD and guarantee payment of such amounts.
15.25. INSURANCE LIABILITY COVERAGE
Unless otherwise specified herein, Contractor/Recipient shall maintain adequate insurance coverage. OPD will not
be responsible for payment of insurance premiums. The intent of the required insurance is to protect the state
should there be any claims, suits, actions, costs, damages, or expenses arising from any negligent or intentional act
or omission of Contractor/Recipient or subcontractor or agents of either while performing under the terms of this
Contract.
Contractor/Recipient shall, prior to commencement of this Contract, obtain, at its sole cost and expense, and at all
times during the term of this Contract, maintain insurance coverage. Failure to maintain sufficient coverage shall not
relieve the Contractor/Recipient of its duty of indemnification as stated in this Contract.
Contractor/Recipient agrees to provide evidence of insurance coverage upon request from OPD. If
Contractor/Recipient is a government agency covered by a governmental self-insurance program, it can provide
verification of self-insurance to satisfy the evidence of insurance requirement.
Contractor/Recipient is advised to assess services delivered pursuant to this Contract and to purchase insurance
coverage for risks associated with those services. For example, while not necessarily required under the Contract,
services may involve advising clients or associated parties, hosting clients or associated parties on its premises,
transporting clients or associated parties in its vehicle, or storing personal information associated with a client or
associated parties on its electronic systems, amongst others. Consequently, pursuant to the assessment,
Contractor/Recipient may determine to purchase insurance policies like professional liability errors and omissions
coverage, general liability coverage, business use automobile coverage, or cyber risk liability coverage, amongst
others, for perils associated with those activities.
Contractor/Recipient is advised to carry short term disability insurance for any extended unavailability due to illness,
injury, or similar.
Failure to provide and maintain insurance as required may result in termination of the Contract.
By requiring insurance, the State of Washington and OPD do not represent that the coverage and limits specified will
be adequate to protect the Contractor/Recipient. Such coverage and limits shall not be construed to relieve the
Contractor/Recipient from liability in excess of the required coverage and limits and shall not limit the
FY270181 City of Tukwila Page 9 of 14
Docusign Envelope ID: 3A1917AA-8313-815C-8374-7099ABD2FCA0
Contractor's/Recipient's liability under the indemnities and reimbursements granted to the State and OPD in this
Contract. All insurance provided in compliance with this Contract shall be primary as to any other insurance or self-
insurance programs afforded to or maintained by the State.

recovery of damages covered by insurance maintained by Contractor/Recipient.

religion or age; disability, pregnancy, or physical or mental health condition; sexual orientation, or gender identity or
expression; marital or veteran status; or English proficiency or speaking accent. In the event of
Contractor's/Recipient's noncompliance or refusal to comply with any nondiscrimination law, regulation, or policy,
OPD may terminate this Contract in whole or in part in accordance with the Termination for Default section below,
and OPD may declare Contractor/Recipient ineligible for further contracts with OPD.
15.29. NON -EXCLUSIVITY
This Contract is non-exclusive. During the term of this Contract, OPD reserves the right to enter into agreements with
other parties as it deems fit. Nothing contained in this Contract shall be construed to limit in any way OPD's right to
enter a like or similar agreement or grant a like or similar license to any other entity or party on such terms as OPD
may in its sole discretion deem appropriate.
15.30. OBLIGATIONS UPON EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION
Upon expiration or termination of this Contract, Contractor/Recipient shall continue to fulfill Contractor's/Recipient's
obligations with respect to any Services and provisions of this Contract that, by their nature, would continue beyond
the expiration, termination, or cancellation of this Contract.
