The Solution
How the Prevailing Wage Plan
Works
|
If you are an open-shop contractor working on public projects,
you are required to provide 100% of the local Prevailing Wage
on public projects, but you may choose to pay only the Basr Rate
in cash.
By contributing the Fringe Benefit Rate in the Davis-Bacon
Pension Plan & Trust you save the amount you would have paid
in payroll taxes, *workers compensation and insurance premiums
on those funds. |

Savings like these enable you
to actually lower your bid while significantly increasing
profits.
The lower your cost of doing business,
the more competitive you can be.
