Using a prevailing wage look-up tool streamlines the process of finding wage determinations. It
enables contractors, workers, and agencies to confirm the wage rates for specific job roles and
locations, helping to prevent underpayment and avoid legal complications on public works projects.
Prevailing wages are typically updated on a regular basis, but the frequency depends on the governing
agency and jurisdiction. At the Federal Level (Davis-Bacon Act): The U.S. Department of Labor updates
prevailing wages periodically, often based on wage surveys conducted in specific regions. Updates can
vary by location and job classification.
