Laborer prevailing wage, Hardin County group, Ohio (2 counties)

DOL sets the same laborer rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Hardin and Paulding. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.

Which kind of construction is the job?

The kind of construction decides the rate: each wage determination covers one. Residential covers homes and apartments up to four stories.
