This is a Prevailing Wage Rate Schedule issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Labor Standards for a Street Sweeping Contract (SS 2027 PW4) being administered by the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) on behalf of the South Shore Regional Services Consortium for the city of Cohasset. The contract covers furnishing all necessary labor, materials, equipment, and services for street sweeping services to participating municipalities including Braintree, Cohasset, Duxbury, Hanover, Hingham, Hull, Marshfield, Milton, Norwell, Pembroke, Rockland, and Scituate through December 31, 2027, with the possibility of two one-year extensions. MassDOT prequalification is required for bidders. The prevailing wage schedule establishes minimum hourly wage rates that all employees performing work on this public works project must receive and applies only to this specific project identified by Wage Request Number 20261104192834-S2, issued November 5, 2026.
The schedule details prevailing wage rates effective on various dates including June 1, 2026, December 1, 2026, January 1, 2027, and extending through 2028, with rates organized by equipment and labor classifications including drivers (ranging from $52.56 to $59.01 total hourly rate), operating engineers (ranging from $42.12 to $79.14 total hourly rate), laborers ($52.56 to $59.90 total hourly rate), and specialized equipment operators. Apprentice rates are provided as a percentage of journeyworker rates with specified ratios (1:5 for laborers, 1:6 for hoisting engineers). All apprentices must be registered with the Massachusetts Division of Apprentice Standards and carry valid apprentice identification cards. Contractors are required to include the prevailing wage schedule in all bid advertisements and contracts, post it at worksites, and ensure compliance under penalty of civil fines, criminal charges, or private lawsuits. Employees not paid the required wages may file complaints with the Attorney General's Fair Labor Division.

Description of Work: The work under this contract consists of furnishing all necessary labor, materials, equipment and services for Street Sweeping
Contract Number: SS 2027 PW4
G.L. 149 §§ 27F, 27G, 27H, & G.L. 71 § 7A Project
This Prevailing Wage Schedule establishes the minimum wage rates that employees on this public works project must be paid. The project’s Wage Request Number is listed above and on all pages of this Schedule. This schedule applies only to this specific project.
Awarding Authority Responsibilities Contractor Responsibilities
You must include this Prevailing Wage Schedule (PWS) or an appropriate reference to it in all advertisements and calls for bids.
The PWS must be incorporated in its entirety into all contracts for this project.
The wage rates on this PWS will remain in effect for the duration of the project unless this PWS does not list wage rates for each year covered by the contract. In that situation, you must ask DLS for an updated Schedule.
Do this at least 1 month before the first period for which rates are missing.
You must also ask for an updated PWS if you renew or extend this contract, or if you have not opened bids or selected a contractor within 90 days of the date of issuance on this Schedule.
You must provide any updated PWS to all contractors working on this project, including general and sub-contractors.
Awarding authorities have other prevailing wage responsibilities not listed above. Learn more at: [Prevailing wage: for awarding authorities |
Mass.gov] and G.L. 149 §§ 27F, 27G, 27H, & G.L. 71 § 7A
You must pay all employees who perform construction work on this project at least the wage rate listed on this PWS. Warning! If you do not follow this requirement, you can face civil fines, criminal charges, or private lawsuits.
You should post this Schedule at the worksite where it can be easily seen.•
You cannot pay any employees at the apprentice rates listed on this PWS unless they are registered with the Massachusetts Division of Apprentice
Standards (DAS). Qualifying apprentices must be paid at the applicable step rate and must carry their apprentice ID card during all work hours on the project. Apprentices not registered with DAS must be paid at the listed journeyworker’s rate, even if they are registered with a different federal/state public agency or private entity.
If you don’t know what classification or rate applies to the work being performed, you must ask DLS; paying the wrong rate subjects you to enforcement.
Please contact DLS if you have any questions about the Prevailing Wage
