WHO WE ARE
Our goal is to empower contractors with the knowledge, tools, and resources necessary for Labor Compliance. Here at Prevailing Wisdom, we aim to assist your company as you pilot through the ins and outs of the complex industry of Public Works, by making it as simple, efficient, and organized as possible.
1. What is a public works project?
Each state has their own definition of a Public Works project. For example California: Alteration, demolition, installation, maintenance, or repair work done under project contracts over the $1,000 threshold and funded either partially or in whole by public funding. Depending on your project, you may need to meet Apprenticeship Requirements, submit certified documents, and follow specific wage rules.
2. What are prevailing wages?
Prevailing wages refer to the minimum hourly rates and benefits that must be paid to workers on public works projects. The goal of prevailing wage laws is to maintain a level playing field for contractors bidding on public works projects.

Documents can range from
-
Fringe benefit statements
