1.0.3.1 The services to be delivered under this Contract/Task Order are non-personal services and the parties recognize and agree that no employer-employee relationship exists or will exist under the Contract/Task Order between the Government and the Contractor's personnel. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the Government to provide both parties a full understanding of their respective obligations. 1.0.3.2 The Contractor employees shall identify themselves as Contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as Contractor personnel and displaying distinguishable badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel. In addition, Contractor personnel shall appropriately identify themselves as Contractor employees in telephone conversations and in formal and informal written correspondence. 1.0.3.3 Contractor personnel under this Contract/Task Order shall not engage in any of the inherent Governmental functions listed at FAR Subpart 7.5 or DFARS Subpart 207.5.
