About this file
This is an Enhanced Minimum Wage Provision document applicable to the Greene County Uniform Services contract for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) Engineering District-12-2. The provision establishes wage requirements for all contractors and subcontractors performing services under this contract. The contractor must pay employees a minimum of $15.00 per hour for all hours worked directly performing the contracted services, as well as for ancillary services when employees spend at least 20 percent of their time on such activities in a given work week. Beginning July 1, 2023, and annually thereafter, the minimum wage rate shall increase by an annual cost-of-living adjustment based on the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland, with adjusted amounts published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin by March 1 each year for effective implementation the following July 1.
The Enhanced Minimum Wage Provisions include specific exceptions for employees exempt under the Minimum Wage Act of 1968, employees covered by collective bargaining agreements, and employees required to be paid higher wages under other state or federal laws, including the Prevailing Wage Act and Davis-Bacon Act, or under any state or local policy or ordinance. The contractor must post these provisions conspicuously in easily-accessible and well-lighted places where contracted services are performed and maintain employment and wage records to demonstrate compliance. Failure to comply may result in sanctions including contract termination, nonpayment, debarment, or referral to the Office of General Counsel for civil or criminal action. These provisions are binding on all subcontractors, who must be required to include identical language in their subcontracts.
