Summary of LW1 and LW2 Forms

This document comprises labor withholding certification forms (LW1 and LW2) related to the PBC Encapsulation project at Murphy K-8 School in Massachusetts, a project involving the repair or encapsulation of PCB-contaminated substrates. The LW1 form is a statement of wages paid to employees, while the LW2 form is a statement of fringe benefits paid to employees. These forms are required compliance documents for contractors performing public works projects in Massachusetts and must be submitted to demonstrate adherence to prevailing wage requirements. The forms require detailed records of employee names, job classifications, hours worked, and corresponding wages and fringe benefits provided during the project period.

The LW forms serve as documentation that the contractor has paid workers at rates not less than those established by the prevailing wage schedule for the specific work classification and project location. Completion and submission of these forms is mandatory for contractors bidding on and performing public works projects in Massachusetts, including environmental remediation work such as PCB encapsulation. These forms are part of the prevailing wage compliance framework and ensure that workers on publicly funded projects receive standardized compensation regardless of contractor. Failure to properly complete and submit LW forms can result in penalties and project non-compliance.
