This Bill corrects inconsistencies with respect to including the type of construction as a qualifier for a particular trade’s prevailing wage rate, and provides for a method to establish wage rates at the end of any five year term. It also provides that if the rate is not determined to be the collective bargaining rate, then the rate determined by the annual survey shall be the rate for a five year period, subject to raises tied directly into the prior year’s pay raise for State employees. This Bill also makes the submission of data for the annual prevailing wage survey mandatory for employers who reported workers to the Division of Unemployment Insurance for the period covered by the survey. Employers who fail to provide data, and who cannot show good cause, are prohibited from submitting bids on any public works projects subject to this Section for a period of one year, or until they submit data in a subsequent survey.

An Act To Amend Title 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Prevailing Wage Requirements.
