6.8 Wage Floor Rate Requirement
https://www.ethics.state.tx.us/filinginfo/1295/
Click or tap here to enter text. 25 of 27
On November 10, 2015, the Dallas City Council passed Resolution 15-2141 which requires prime contractors, awarded general service contracts valued greater than $50,000, and first-tier subcontractors on the contract to pay their employees rendering services on the contract a wage floor of not less than $23.06 per hour.
Pursuant to Resolution 15-2141 the wage floor requirement for all general service contracts greater than $50,000 shall be effective immediately on all new contracts awarded after November 10, 2015. Contractor’s bidding/proposing on general service contracts shall take into consideration such wage floor requirements in their bid/proposal. The wage floor requirement for the City of Dallas’ general service contracts shall be derived from the most current Massachusetts Institute of Technology Living Wage publication and shall remain fixed for the term of the respective contract. The City reserves the right to audit such contracts for compliance with the wage floor requirement as mandated by Resolution 15- 2141. This requirement does not apply to construction contracts in which prevailing wage of employees is governed by the Davis-Bacon Act as defined in the Texas Local Government Code 2258, purchase of goods, procurements made with grant funds or procurements made through cooperative and/or inter-local agreements.
The purpose of this policy is to promote an acceptable wage floor for working families in the City of Dallas, increase the level of service delivered to the City through specific contracts and reduce turnover in such contracts thus maintaining a continuous and consistent level of service for vested parties.
The City Manager shall use the following definitions to administer the benefactors of the “wage floor” for purposes of the referenced resolution:
• "City" means the City of Dallas, Texas.
• "General Services Contract" means any agreement between the City and any other
Person or business to provide general services through an awarded City contract valued greater than $50,000.
