Questions about Virginia painter pay

What is the painter prevailing wage in Fairfax County?

$41.02 an hour: a $29.16 base wage plus $11.86 in fringe benefits, under wage determination VA20260178, modification 4. Overtime and every painter classification in Fairfax County.

Does painter prevailing wage include fringe benefits?

Yes. In Fairfax County the $41.02 total is a $29.16 base wage plus $11.86 in fringe benefits, about 29% of the total. The employer owes the full amount for every hour worked.

Does painter prevailing wage pay overtime in Virginia?

Davis-Bacon rates are straight time. On contracts over $100,000, the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act requires 1½ times the basic rate for hours over 40 in a workweek (40 U.S.C. 3702). The fringe is owed for every hour at its straight-time amount.

Do apprentice painters get this rate?

Davis-Bacon determinations list journeyworker rates. Apprentices in a program registered with DOL or a recognized state agency can be paid the program's percentage of the rate, within its ratio; anyone else gets the full rate (29 CFR 5.5(a)(4)).

Why do some localities have the same painter rate?

DOL often publishes the same painter rates for several localities. Across Virginia, the 133 localities with a painter rate fall into 42 distinct sets of rates, and 26 of those sets are shared by more than one county or city; the largest covers 15 localities (the Pittsylvania County group).
