About this file

This document is a 2025 Highway General Wage Decision issued by the City and County of Denver, covering prevailing wage rates for highway construction projects in Denver and Douglas Counties, Colorado. The document, effective January 10, 2025, provides detailed wage schedules for various construction job classifications, including carpenters, electricians, equipment operators, laborers, painters, truck drivers, and other specialized roles. It applies to highway construction projects and excludes residential construction of single-family homes and apartments up to four stories.

The wage determination outlines specific hourly base rates and fringe benefits for each job classification, with variations between Denver and Douglas Counties. The document highlights key requirements such as apprenticeship program regulations, minimum wage compliance (set at $18.81), and adherence to Davis-Bacon Act provisions. It also references Executive Orders 14026 and 13658, which mandate minimum wage rates for workers on federal and federally-assisted contracts. Contractors must ensure workers are paid at least the specified rates, with provisions for adjusting wages annually and submitting conformance requests for classifications not explicitly listed in the wage determination.

HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS

Note: Contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act are generally required to pay at least the applicable minimum wage rate required under Executive Order 14026 or Executive Order 13658.

Please note that these Executive Orders apply to covered contracts entered into by the federal government that are subject to the Davis-Bacon Act itself, but do not apply to contracts subject only to the Davis-Bacon Related Acts, including those set forth at 29 CFR 5.1(a)(1).

If the contract is entered into on or after January 30, 2022, or the contract is renewed or extended (e.g., an option is exercised) on or after January 30, 2022:

• Executive Order 14026 generally applies to the contract.

• The contractor must pay all covered workers at least $18.81 per hour (or the applicable wage rate listed on this wage determination, if it is higher) for all hours spent performing on the contract in 2025.

If the contract was awarded on or between January 1, 2015, and January 29, 2022, and the contract is not renewed or extended on or after January 30, 2022:

• Executive order 13658 generally applies to the contract.

• The contractor must pay all covered workers at least $18.81 per hour (or the applicable wage determination, if it is higher) for all hours spent performing on that contract in 2025.

The applicable Executive Order minimum wage rate will be adjusted annually. If this contract is covered by one of the Executive Orders and a classification considered necessary for performance of work on the contract does not appear on this wage determination, the contractor must still submit a conformance request.

Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the Executive Orders is available at www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.
