Sheet Metal Worker prevailing wage, Hancock County group, West Virginia (2 counties)
DOL sets the same sheet metal worker rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Brooke and Hancock. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$64.62an hour, base wage + fringe benefits (our sum)
$34.92 base wage + $29.70 fringe benefits · SHEE0033-003
On federally funded or assisted building construction in each of these 2 counties, a sheet metal worker must be paid at least $64.62 an hour: a $34.92 base wage plus $29.70 in fringe benefits, under wage determination WV20260050 (modification 1). DOL prints no total, so $64.62 is our sum of the two.

Base wage and fringe benefits: $34.92 + $29.70
The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DOL prints the fringe benefits as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.

When does this rate change?
- A contract keeps the wage determination in its bid documents. Modifications published before bid opening apply to it, though one published less than 10 days before can be left out if the agency finds there isn't time to tell bidders (29 CFR 1.6(c)).
- DOL changes a WD by publishing a numbered modification on SAM.gov. This page reads the modification named in the Source line; the West Virginia change log lists what each one changed.
