The determination includes fringe benefits of $5.92 per hour (up to 40 hours weekly or $236.80 per week) for most occupations, with alternative rates of $5.42 per hour for certain positions covered by Executive Order 13706. Additional mandatory benefits include paid sick leave (1 hour per 30 hours worked up to 56 hours annually), vacation (2-4 weeks based on tenure), and eleven paid holidays minimum. Uniform allowances are capped at $1.35 per week when required by contract terms. Special provisions apply to computer professionals, air traffic controllers, weather observers, and hazardous duty positions, with differential pay ranging from 4 to 8 percent for hazard exposure. The wage determination includes a conformance process requiring contractors to submit SF-1444 forms for unlisted occupational classifications within 30 days of contract award, subject to Department of Labor review and approval.
