Each occupation includes a specific hourly rate. All listed occupations receive health and welfare benefits of $5.55 per hour (up to 40 hours per week, equaling $222.00 weekly or $962.00 monthly) or, under Executive Order 13786, $5.89 per hour ($283.60 weekly or $882.27 monthly). Additional benefits include two weeks paid vacation after one year of service, three weeks after five years, and four weeks after 15 years; a minimum of eleven paid holidays annually; and hazardous duty differentials of 8 percent or 4 percent based on job hazard levels. The determination specifies that conformance requests for unlisted occupations must follow established procedures under 29 CFR 4.6(b)(2)(i), requiring contractor submission and Wage and Hour Division approval before implementation.
