Davis Bacon Act
(From U.S. Dept. Of Labor) 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.
