| How the Prevailing Wage Plan Works |
|||||||||
|
If you are an open-shop contractor working on public projects, you are required to provide 100% of the local Prevailing Wage on public projects, but you may choose to pay only the Base Rate in cash. By contributing the Fringe Benefit Rate in the Davis-Bacon Pension Plan & Trust you save the amount you would have paid in payroll taxes, *workers compensation and insurance premiums on those funds. |
||||||||
Savings like these enable you to actually lower your bid while significantly increasing profits. The lower your costs of doing business, the more competitive you can be. |

| Employee Prevailing Wage Plan Benefits |
|||||||||
|
Participation in the Davis-Bacon Pension Plan & Trust means your employees also save the amount which they otherwise would have paid to FICA or income tax on their Fringe Benefits. In addition to their tax savings, employees also accumulate tax-deferred earnings on their total Trust deposit. These funds will not be taxed until withdrawn, usually at retirement, which occurs without IRS penalties after age 59 1/2.
