How much do construction laborers earn on prevailing wage jobs in Nevada?
Every row below is one wage determination line: a construction laborer classification, in one county, for one construction type, under one funding source. The rate that applies to your project is the row whose county, construction type and funding source all match it — a Highway rate does not apply to a Building project in the same county, and a state determination does not substitute for a federal one.

What does the construction laborer classification cover?
The laborer classification covers general construction work not reserved to a specific trade, and it is almost always the most heavily subdivided entry on a wage determination — common/general, mason tender, pipelayer, flagger, asphalt raker and landscape laborer can all carry different rates on the same document. The "Common or General" rate is the floor, not a universal rate.

Across the 50 federal-funded determination records WageFinder lists for construction laborers in Nevada, total prevailing wage runs from $70.62 to $91.24 per hour, median $73.52.
