IV. Davis-Bacon Wage Surveys
Do I have to participate in a survey and is it important to participate?
No and yes. The purpose of Davis-Bacon wage surveys is to collect
information on wage rates and fringe benefits
paid to mechanics and laborers working on construction projects.
The results of the survey will determine wage rates to be paid on future
federally financed or assisted projects subject to the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts. If contractors or other interested
parties do not provide wage data a prevailing wage rate may be determined
without universal participation. It is therefore necessary that we
secure all wage data for projects within the survey
time frame.
