About this file
This document is an official prevailing wage rate schedule for the State of Michigan applicable to state-funded projects in the Kalamazoo region, effective as of November 2025. The schedule establishes mandatory wage rates for various skilled trades and labor classifications across highway and heavy construction, commercial construction, and related sectors. The rates apply to journeyworkers and apprentices at multiple levels, with separate classifications for specializations such as power equipment operators (highway and heavy versus commercial), electricians, plumbers, pipefitters, ironworkers, carpenters, roofers, and numerous other construction trades.
The wage rates are structured with three compensation tiers: straight time, time and a half for overtime, and double time for additional overtime scenarios. Journeyworker straight-time rates range from $36.87 per hour for landscaping laborers to $110.76 per hour for elevator constructors, with most skilled trades falling between $45 and $75 per hour. Apprentice rates are tiered by experience level or duration, typically ranging from 65 to 85 percent of journeyworker rates depending on the classification. The schedule indicates which classifications permit four 10-hour workdays and whether make-up days are allowed, with specific provisions for foreman premiums in certain trades such as carpentry. All rates are set by the State of Michigan to ensure compliance with prevailing wage requirements on publicly funded construction projects, with last-updated dates ranging from October 28 to November 5, 2025.
