This is a Register of Wage Determinations under the Service Contract Act (SCA) for federal service contracts in the Virgin Islands, specifically covering Saint John, St Croix, and St Thomas counties. The wage determination (No. 2015-5715, Revision 27, last revised 8/11/2026) establishes minimum hourly wage rates and fringe benefits requirements for service contractors and subcontractors performing work in this geographic area.

The document lists over 200 occupation codes and corresponding minimum wage rates ranging from $11.42 to $53.73 per hour, across occupational categories including administrative support, automotive service, food preparation, furniture maintenance, general services, health occupations, information technology, instructional positions, laundry and pressing, machine tool operations, materials handling, mechanics and maintenance, personal needs, plant operations, protective services, recreation, stevedoring, technical occupations, transportation/mobile equipment, and miscellaneous occupations. All listed occupations receive mandatory fringe benefits of $5.92 per hour (up to 40 hours per week, $236.80 weekly, or $1,026.13 monthly) for health and welfare, with an alternative rate of $5.42 per hour available under Executive Order 13706 for certain paid sick leave situations. Employees also receive one to four weeks of paid vacation based on tenure, a minimum of eleven paid holidays annually, and applicable hazardous pay differentials (4% or 8%) for designated positions. Computer professionals meeting specific exemption criteria under 29 CFR Part 541 are subject to special wage determination provisions. The document includes procedural requirements for conformance requests using Standard Form 1444 when unlisted occupations require wage rate authorization.
