Attachment 4 - Wage Detrmination.pdf

This is a General Decision document (PA20260002) issued by the U.S. Department of Labor establishing prevailing wage rates for federal and federally-assisted construction projects in Pennsylvania effective May 18, 2026. The determination covers heavy and highway construction types across 31 Pennsylvania counties, excluding sewer grouting and sewage/water treatment plant projects.

The document lists prevailing wage rates and fringe benefits for numerous construction classifications organized by trade code, including boilermakers, bricklayers, carpenters, electricians, ironworkers, laborers, painters, plumbers, and truck drivers. Rates vary by county and classification, with effective dates ranging from 2008 to 2026. For example, boilermaker rates range from $35.34 to $55.00 per hour with fringes from $18.48 to $35.48; electrician rates range from $40.00 to $51.45 with fringes from $26.51 to $36.79; and truck driver rates range from $37.79 to $44.24 with fringes from $16.02 to $24.02. The document includes multiple union rate identifiers and references Executive Orders 13706 (paid sick leave) and 13658 (minimum wage requirements for Davis-Bacon contracts). Contractors must comply with these rates for all hours worked on covered projects. Appeals of wage determinations may be directed to the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division or the Administrative Review Board.
