About this file
This is an Enhanced Minimum Wage Provisions document applicable to a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) contract for asphalt procurement in Armstrong County. The document establishes wage requirements for contractor and subcontractor employees performing services under the 2026 Armstrong County Asphalt solicitation. The contract involves the procurement of three types of asphalt materials: WM9.5MM with any SRL and ESAL ratings (PennDOT material #322472), WMA 9.5MM with SRL-H designation and specific ESAL parameters (PennDOT material #322459), and WM19MM materials, though quantities and complete specifications are not fully detailed in the provided excerpt.
Contractors must pay a minimum wage of $15.00 per hour to all employees performing direct services or ancillary services representing at least 20 percent of weekly work time. Beginning July 1, 2023, and annually thereafter, the minimum wage rate shall increase based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland, with adjusted rates published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin by March 1 each year. Exemptions apply to employees covered by collective bargaining agreements, those exempt under the Minimum Wage Act of 1968, and employees required to receive higher wages under prevailing wage laws or other state or local ordinances. Contractors must post these provisions visibly in work areas, maintain employment and wage records for Commonwealth verification, and include identical provisions in all subcontracts. Non-compliance may result in contract termination, payment withholding, debarment, or referral for civil or criminal action.
