Payment of Employee Health Care Expenses Spreadsheet.xlsx

This is a Payment of Employee Health Care Expenses Spreadsheet associated with Solicitation No. KB-3022-0000 for the Shoreline Restoration at FSK Police Headquarters project in Baltimore County, Maryland, governed under SB0433. The spreadsheet is a data collection instrument designed to gather comprehensive employee health care cost information from the bidding company and all associated subcontractors (up to ten listed). Bidders must complete designated yellow-highlighted cells for each company entity, providing details on health insurance coverage provisions for prevailing wage projects, the percentage of total health insurance costs paid by the insurance company versus employees, the type and scope of coverage offered, and the average monthly premium cost distribution between employers and employees. Additionally, respondents must report average per-employee deductibles for each health care plan offered, the percentage of total wages attributable to employer Social Security contributions, and the total amount spent on employee healthcare during the fiscal year ending on the bid submission date. Any inapplicable fields should be marked "N/A," and additional rows may be added as needed to accommodate all subcontractors.

The spreadsheet functions as a compliance and evaluation tool for prevailing wage contract requirements, ensuring transparency in employee benefit structures and associated costs. This submission requirement indicates that the contracting authority is evaluating bidders' employee welfare commitments and compliance with prevailing wage standards applicable to this public works project. The data collected will likely inform bid evaluation criteria related to labor costs and fringe benefits, which are material considerations in prevailing wage contracting. Bidders must provide accurate and complete information across all company entities involved in project delivery to avoid submission deficiencies.
