Report Prevailing Wage violations to us at info@ohioconstructioncoalition.org.

Ohio’s Prevailing Wage Law was established in 1931 to require construction contractors who work on publicly funded projects to pay construction workers at least the prevailing wages and benefits for their respective trades in the area in which the work is performed. This law prevents building contractors from undercutting workers’ wages and benefits – and the local economy.

The Ohio Division of Labor & Worker Safety Wage and Hour Bureau determines prevailing wage rates for the construction industry and enforces the Prevailing Wage Law on construction projects when public funds are involved. For more information, click here.

The Ohio Construction Coalition supports enforcement and preservation of the state’s Prevailing Wage rules – because they help protect Ohio’s building-trades workers and the construction industry as a whole, while providing a more skilled workforce and higher quality construction.
