Davis_Bacon Fulton County.pdf

This is a Davis-Bacon wage determination document for Fulton County, establishing prevailing wage rates applicable to construction and related work in the jurisdiction. The document applies to all federal construction projects and federally-funded construction contracts within Fulton County that trigger Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements. The file specifies hourly wage rates, fringe benefits, and classification requirements for various trades and labor categories involved in construction activities. Prevailing wage rates are mandated for all workers on covered projects, with rates varying by specific job classification including but not limited to laborers, carpenters, electricians, heavy equipment operators, and other skilled trades. The wage determination remains in effect until superseded by a newer determination issued by the Department of Labor, ensuring ongoing compliance with federal prevailing wage standards for all applicable construction work performed within Fulton County.

The Davis-Bacon wage rates establish mandatory minimum compensation for all workers on covered federal projects, with rates typically including both base hourly wages and fringe benefit allowances. These prevailing wage requirements apply to all contractors and subcontractors performing work on federally-funded construction projects, with no set-asides or special bidder categories. Compliance with the prevailing wage rates is a federal requirement, and contractors must certify adherence to these rates in their contract proposals and throughout project execution. Funding for prevailing wage obligations is the responsibility of the project budget, as Davis-Bacon wages must be incorporated into all cost estimates and bids for covered construction work. The rates serve to protect workers by establishing uniform compensation standards across jurisdictions while ensuring fair labor practices on all federally-funded construction initiatives within Fulton County.
