One rate, fringe benefits included: $110.76

LEO publishes a single hourly figure that already includes fringe benefits. A contractor can pay it all as wages, or pay part as contributions to bona fide benefit plans for the worker, as long as the two add up to at least $110.76. LEO doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.
