$57.29 base wage + $48.70 fringe benefits · Building

On Connecticut public works in each of these 49 towns, a sheet metal worker must be paid at least $105.99 an hour: a $57.29 base wage plus $48.70 in benefits. CTDOL prints no total, so $105.99 is our sum of the two.

CTDOL schedules as of July 1, 2026; this rate, effective July 1, 2026. Rates are not fixed for the life of a contract: contractors must adjust wages and benefits every July 1 to CTDOL's new rates (CGS § 31-55a, as amended by PA 25-168). Checked against portal.ct.gov on October 25, 2026.

CTDOL lists 2 sheet metal worker rates for each of these towns, from $63.88 to $105.99 an hour. See all of them.

CTDOL's online rates are informational. The contracting agency gets a project schedule from CTDOL before advertising, and that schedule, in the bid documents, is the one that applies.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $57.29 + $48.70

The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. CTDOL prints the benefits as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.

Base wage (taxable)$57.29
Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized)$48.70

Davis-Bacon sheet metal worker rates in these counties

The counties share CTDOL's rates, but not always the same federal wage determination. When a contract requires both the state rate and the Davis-Bacon rate, paying the higher of the two meets both. The contract documents say which apply.
