On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 6 counties, an elevator constructor must be paid at least $112.61 an hour: a $74.17 base wage plus $38.44 in fringe benefits, under wage determination MA20260001 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $112.61 is our sum of the two. The WD's footnote adds a benefit this total leaves out, so treat it as a floor.

Massachusetts also sets its own rates; on jobs covered by both, pay the higher. The Department of Labor Standards issues them per project, by wage request number, and they must be re-requested after 90 days (M.G.L. c. 149 ss. 26-27), so there is no county schedule to show here.
DOL lists 2 elevator constructor rates for each of these counties, from $112.61 to $112.61 an hour. See all of them.
- The footnote for this classification adds a percentage-based benefit that the total here leaves out; read it on the WD.
Base wage and fringe benefits: $74.17 + $38.44

When does this rate change?
- 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 Massachusetts change log lists what each one changed.
