The economic-stimulus package requires that workers on projects funded by the package receive “prevailing wages.” Prevailing wages are similar to union wages and are typically higher than average wages in a county. The provision concerns some contractors who say it will drive up the cost of stimulus projects. However, labor groups support the prevailing wage provision and say higher wages will help the economy. Prevailing wage provisions require the submission of certified payroll reports.
