About this file
This document outlines the Enhanced Minimum Wage Provisions for a state and local contract or lease opportunity. The provisions require contractors/lessors to pay their employees a minimum wage of $12.00 per hour for all hours worked directly performing the contracted services, as well as for hours spent on ancillary services necessary for the performance of the contracted work. The minimum wage will increase annually by $0.50 until it reaches $15.00 per hour on July 1, 2024, after which it will be adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index. There are exceptions to these provisions, such as for employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement or required to be paid a higher wage under another state or federal law. Contractors/lessors must post the provisions, maintain employment and wage records, and include the provisions in any subcontracts.
The document also outlines potential sanctions for non-compliance, which may include contract termination, nonpayment, debarment, or referral for civil or criminal action.
