Mineral County uses the same boilermaker rates as 12 other counties. See all of them on one page.
On Nevada public works in Mineral County, a boilermaker must be paid at least $79.07 an hour. Labor Commissioner prints one rate with fringe benefits included, so there is no separate base wage.
Labor Commissioner 2026-2027 rates (Oct 1, 2026), effective October 1, 2026. On a bid contract, the rates in effect when bids are opened apply until the contract ends or for 36 months (NRS 338.030(9)). Checked against labor.nv.gov on October 25, 2026.
One rate, fringe benefits included: $79.07
Labor Commissioner 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 $79.07. Labor Commissioner doesn't publish a base and fringe split, so this page doesn't invent one.
When does this rate change?
- On a bid contract, the rates in effect when bids are opened apply for the contract, or 36 months, whichever is earlier (NRS 338.030(9)–(10)). An amendment applies to projects bid after it takes effect (NAC 338.050).
- The Commissioner issues rates every October 1 for public works bid or awarded October 1 through September 30, and issues amendments when union rates change before then; an amendment takes effect on the date given, or 10 days after issue (NAC 338.040).
Davis-Bacon boilermaker rate in Mineral County
Federally funded or assisted construction here uses the U.S. Department of Labor's wage determinations. 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.
For highway work, the matching Davis-Bacon classification is Boilermaker: Journeyman at $76.62 base, fringe null, from NV20260099 modification 1, published July 30, 2026, rate SANV2025-001. Against Labor Commissioner's $79.07: The federal fringe isn't a dollar amount, so the totals can't be compared. Note: federal row flagged: blank; the state prints one rate with fringes included, so only totals are compared.
