LEO county rates, November 2025 edition, effective October 29, 2025. The contracting agent gets LEO's rates before advertising and puts them in the specifications; if the contract isn't awarded or started within 90 days of LEO's determination, LEO must redetermine them (MCL 408.1103). Checked against michigan.gov on October 25, 2026.

One rate, fringe benefits included: $58.37

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 $58.37. LEO doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.

LEO's data note: LEO prints package rates only (wage + fringe at straight time, 1.5x, 2x)
