“DOL Updates Prevailing Wage Laws to Increase Construction Worker’s Pay on Federally Funded Projects” The Department of Labor (DOL) has announced updates to the prevailing wage laws through changes to the Davis-Bacon rules. These updates aim to increase construction worker’s pay on federally funded projects. The rule will restore the DOL's definition of prevailing wage, making it equivalent to the wage paid to at least 30% of workers in a given trade in a locality. The changes are intended to raise hourly earnings for workers on projects funded by legislation such as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the CHIPS Act. @Teamsters @steamfitters638 @LIUNA @IBEW @local79nyc @420Steamfitters @Steamfitters449 @ualocal33 @UALOCAL440 @174Steamfitter @PlumbersLocal3 @CarpentersNyc @RobCable5 @AFLCIO @CentralLaborNYC @BSN_Mike @NABTU @SeniaBilly @EmcwilliamsMc @CarpRatPatrol @111Ibew @IBEWHourPower @IBEWSolidarity @IBEW213 @IBEWLocalUnion3 @laborbear @LaborersFight @Laborers435 @mrtyg1 #PrevailingWage #FairPay #WorkerRights #EconomicJustice #IncomeInequality #InfrastructureInvestment #ConstructionWorkers #DOLUpdates #WorkerProtection #IncomeEquality
