Pinellas County Housing Authority Hosts Davis-Bacon Compliance Workshop for Contractors
The Davis-Bacon Act, as amended, requires that each contract over $2,000 to which the United States 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.
All contractors are encouraged to attend. To RSVP please email holda@pinellashousing.com or call 727-443-7684, ext. 3030.
