GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Wage and Hour Division (WHD) Prevailing Wage Seminars (Prevailing Wage Seminars) are three-day compliance trainings designed for regional stakeholders (unions, private contractors, state agencies, federal agencies and workers). The compliance training provided has proven to be an essential force multiplier for WHD’s enforcement efforts and stakeholder education.

Prevailing Wage Seminars are emblematic of WHD's enhanced commitment to prevailing wage enforcement. Seminars have significantly enhanced communication and collaboration with some of our most important stakeholders, such as the building trades labor organizations and contractors that have millions of dollars in government contracts. Our increased enforcement has also significantly elevated interest and attendance by state and federal contracting agencies. Previous seminars have averaged more than 300 attendees from the city where the seminar is held and from surrounding states and further. Prevailing Wage Seminars have proven a valuable tool in promoting and enhancing WHD's government contracts strategic prevailing wage enforcement efforts.

In addition, Prevailing Wage Seminars are a mission critical component of WHD’s overall enforcement strategy. WHD believes that providing contractors and contracting agency staff with compliance assistance training prior to contract award significantly reduces unintentional errors and permits WHD to target its limited enforcement resources on the egregious violators.
