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.
