S02-S02- Wage Determination West Roxbury_Jamaica Plains.pdf

This is a Wage Determination document for prevailing wage rates applicable to federal construction contracts in the West Roxbury and Jamaica Plains areas of Massachusetts. The document establishes the prevailing wage and fringe benefit rates that contractors and subcontractors must pay workers employed on federally-funded construction projects in these geographic locations. These wage determinations are mandatory under the Davis-Bacon Act and apply to all laborers and mechanics working on covered federal construction contracts exceeding specified threshold amounts.

The wage determination specifies classification-based rates for various trades and occupations, including but not limited to carpenters, electricians, plumbers, equipment operators, and general laborers, along with associated fringe benefits such as health and welfare contributions, pension contributions, and apprenticeship fund payments. Contractors bidding on the Bulk Oxygen Corrections project at the three Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (Brockton, Jamaica Plain, and West Roxbury) must comply with these prevailing wage rates for all applicable worker classifications on the project. The document serves as the binding wage standard for the 275-calendar-day performance period and ensures that all workers on this VA construction project receive federally-mandated minimum compensation.
