Davis-Bacon
The
Davis-Bacon Act, as amended,
requires that each contract over $2,000 to which the United States or the District of
Columbia is a party for the construction, alteration, or repair of public buildings or
public works shall contain a clause setting forth the
minimum wages to be
paid to various classes of laborers and mechanics employed under the contract. Under
the provisions of the Act, contractors or their subcontractors are to pay workers employed
directly upon the site of the work no less than the locally prevailing wages and fringe
benefits paid on projects of a similar character.
The Davis-Bacon Act directs the
Secretary of Labor to determine such local prevailing wage rates. These prevailing wage
rate determinations apply to most VTrans federally-aided highway construction
projects. The wage schedules also illustrate holiday and fringe
benefits available for certain classifications.
