In public works projects, including repair work, construction, demolition and other projects, prevailing wage laws can affect what contractors, subcontractors and others must earn in terms of hourly wages, overtime and benefits. Prevailing wage regulations change from region to region and state to state, and they change regularly as they are updated. Compliance regulations for these statutes can be quite complex, leading to some confusion about which wages need to be paid and how benefits need to pay.
