The Pennsylvania Department of General Services defines a “Public Work” to be a construction, reconstruction, demolition, alteration and/or repair work, other than maintenance work, done under contract and paid for in whole or in part out of funds of a public body where the estimated cost of the total project is in excess of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), but shall not include work performed under a manpower or rehabilitation training program.

3. The Department of General Services’ Public Works Employment Verification Compliance Program is responsible for the administration, education and enforcement of the Public Works Employment Verification Act (Act 127 of 2012).

It provides contractors and subcontractors with educational outreach, conducts investigations when complaints are received and random audits to ensure compliance with the requirements of this Act.
