NECA Submits Public Comments on Proposed Rule Updating the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts Regulations |
The U.S. Department of Labor on March 18, 2022, issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on Updating Davis-Bacon and Related Acts (RIN 1235-AA40), which contains the most sweeping revisions to the rules governing Davis-Bacon Act enforcement since the Reagan Administration last reformed the rules in 1982. The rule, which applies to federal construction contracts of more than $2,000, is designed to ensure that Davis-Bacon rates reflect actual local wages paid to workers in their local communities.
On May 17, 2022, NECA submitted to the Department of Labor public comments on the NPRM, both individually and in partnership with the Construction Employers of America coalition.
