FAR 3.905 is the rule that stops companies from punishing workers who tell about bad things they see. It keeps workers safe when they report problems.
FAR 3.905 explains rules about contractor employees who were once government workers. It helps stop unfair help or secret info from being used in contracts. This rule protects fairness when hiring companies that have people who used to work for the government.
FAR 3.905 helps stop conflicts of interest in government contracts. It says that contractor employees can't work on government jobs if it creates unfair advantages or favoritism. This keeps things fair and honest. It protects government decisions from being unfairly influenced and makes sure everyone follows the same rules.
A common mistake with FAR 3.905 is ignoring the rules about personal conflicts of interest. Some people forget to check if someone working on the contract has a past job that could cause bias. Others miss the step of writing a simple plan to spot and stop conflicts early. Not following these steps can lead to unfair choices and legal trouble later. Always check for personal ties and document your plan to stay in line with FAR 3.905.
