The wage determination establishes prevailing wage rates for over 200 occupational classifications across multiple service categories, including administrative support, automotive service, food preparation, furniture maintenance, general services, health occupations, information technology, instructional occupations, laundry and dry-cleaning, machine tool operations, materials handling and packing, mechanics and maintenance and repair, personal needs, plant and system operations, protective services, recreation, stevedoring, technical occupations, and transportation/mobile equipment operations. Wage rates range from $12.08 per hour for lower-skilled positions to $50.20 per hour for specialized roles such as cable splicers. All occupations receive fringe benefits of $5.55 per hour (up to 40 hours weekly, or $222.00 weekly/$962.00 monthly), and an alternative health and welfare rate of $5.09 per hour is available for SCA-covered contracts also covered by Executive Order 13706. All employees receive minimum vacation benefits of two weeks after one year of service and three weeks after eight years, eleven paid holidays annually, and other standard benefits. Computer employees, air traffic controllers, and weather observers have special pay and classification provisions noted in footnotes. Hazardous pay differentials of 4–8 percent apply to designated positions, and uniform allowance reimbursement is required at $3.35 per week unless uniforms are "wash and wear" materials. Executive Order 13658 established a minimum wage of $13.30 per hour for contracts awarded between January 1, 2015 and January 29, 2022.
