DLSR

In previous blog posts, we’ve talked about the critical importance of the Bid Advertisement Date when determining your job’s California prevailing wage rate. And we’ve talked about the significance of superseded prevailing wage decisons. So, we thought it made sense to touch on the “Important Notices” section of the DIR website.

Most California contractors are no doubt familiar with the Division of Labor Statistics and Research's ("DLSR") determinations establishing the prevailing wage rate for public works projects. These determinations are accessible on the DLSR's website, and set forth the applicable hourly wage rate for workers on these projects depending on their classification. The determination that will apply to a contractor will be one existing at the time of the contract bid date.
