Sheet Metal Worker prevailing wage, Saline County group, Kansas (2 counties)
DOL sets the same sheet metal worker rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Ottawa and Saline. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$33.01an hour, base + fringe
$25.71 wage + $7.30 fringe benefits · Building · SUKS2015-014
On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 2 counties, a sheet metal worker must be paid at least $33.01 an hour: a $25.71 base wage plus $7.30 in fringe benefits, under wage determination KS20260045 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $33.01 is our sum of the two.
Wage determination KS20260045, modification 1, published May 18, 2026, for building construction; rate identifier SUKS2015-014 (July 8, 2015). Checked against sam.gov on October 25, 2026.
Davis-Bacon is the only prevailing wage here (federally funded or assisted work). Kansas repealed its law in 1987 (DOL state table).
DOL lists 3 sheet metal worker rates for each of these counties, from $17.88 to $79.33 an hour. See all of them.
Base wage and fringe benefits: $25.71 + $7.30
The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DOL prints the fringe 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) | $25.71 |
| Fringe benefits (one figure, not itemized) | $7.30 |
| Base + fringe benefits (our sum; DOL prints no total) | $33.01 |
When this rate changes
- A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)).
- DOL changes a WD by publishing a numbered modification on SAM.gov. This page reads the modification named in the Source line; the Kansas change log lists what each one changed.
