DWD 290.01 Note Note: In an Opinion of the Attorney General issued on November 12, 2009, OAG-5-09, the Attorney General states that, effective January 1, 2010, state prevailing wage rates must be paid to the employees of a local governmental unit that enters into an agreement to perform services for another local governmental unit on a project of public works. Under this rule, the same requirement also applies to any agreement for services entered into before January 1, 2010, and to any work that is claimed to be done pursuant to the joint exercise of powers or duties under s. 66.0301 (2), 2009 Stats., before or after January 1, 2010, when the circumstances show that the work comes under the definition of work done by a “contractor" or “employer."
DWD 290.01(5) (5)“Department" means the state of Wisconsin department of workforce development.
DWD 290.01(5m) (5m)“Direct financial assistance" has the same meaning as in s. 66.0904 (1) (c), 2009 Stats.

DWD 290.01 Note 1. A public works contract, a supply procurement contract, a contract of insurance or guaranty, a collective bargaining agreement, or any other contract under which moneys are not directly provided or otherwise directly made available for that assistance.
DWD 290.01 Note 2. Any moneys allocated by the city of Milwaukee for the purchase of public access easements that are located entirely in the Milwaukee Riverwalk Site Plan Review Overlay District established by the city of Milwaukee, as amended to June 1, 2009, or for the construction of dockwalls, walkways, plazas, parks, private roadways open to the public, or similar improvements, or for any other public infrastructure improvements, that are located entirely in that district, if the work on those improvements is subject to s. 66.0903, 2009 Stats., or is exempted from that section under s. 66.0903 (6), 2009 Stats.
DWD 290.01(6) (6)“Employer" means any contractor, subcontractor, agent or other person, including a Wisconsin state agency as defined in s. 103.49 (1) (f), 2009 Stats., or a local governmental unit as defined in s. 66.0903 (1) (d), 2009 Stats., doing or contracting to do all or a part of the work.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: In an Opinion of the Attorney General issued on November 12, 2009, OAG-5-09, the Attorney General states that, effective January 1, 2010, state prevailing wage rates must be paid to the employees of a local governmental unit that enters into an agreement to perform services for another local governmental unit on a project of public works. Under this rule, the same requirement also applies to any agreement for services entered into before January 1, 2010, and to any work that is claimed to be done pursuant to the joint exercise of powers or duties under s. 66.0301 (2), 2009 Stats., before or after January 1, 2010, when the circumstances show that the work comes under the definition of work done by a “contractor" or “employer."
DWD 290.01(6m) (6m)“Facility" means all or any portion of a building, a structure, land, infrastructure, or other real property.
DWD 290.01(9) (9)“Hourly basic rate of pay" has the meaning given in s. 103.49 (1) (b), 2009 Stats.
DWD 290.01(10) (10)“Hourly contributions" is the per hour cost of the economic benefits paid to a laborer, worker, mechanic or truck driver by his or her employer, in addition to the hourly basic rate of pay. Payment for food, lodging, mileage, riding time, waiting time, call-in pay, uniforms, and the use of an employer's vehicle are excluded.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: Specific economic benefits. (Interpretation)
DWD 290.01 Note (a) The term “other bona fide economic benefit" is the so-called “open end" provision. This was included so that new economic benefits may be recognized by the department as they become prevailing. A particular economic benefit need not be recognized beyond a particular area in order for the department to find that it is prevailing in that area.
DWD 290.01 Note (b) To insure against considering or giving credit to any and all economic benefits, some of which might be illusory or not genuine, the qualification required by the department is that the economic benefits must be bona fide. No difficulty is anticipated in determining whether a particular economic benefit is bona fide in the ordinary case where benefits are those common in the construction industry and which are established under a usual fund, plan or program. The following are typical conventional economic benefits: medical or hospital care, pensions on retirement or death, compensation for injuries or illness resulting from occupational activity, or insurance to provide any of the foregoing, unemployment benefits, life insurance, disability and sickness insurance, or accident insurance, vacation and holiday pay, defrayal of costs of apprenticeship or other similar programs, or other bona fide economic benefits, but only where the employer is not required by other federal, state, or local law to provide any of the benefits. Employers may take credit for contributions made under such conventional plans without requesting the approval of the department.
DWD 290.01 Note (c) Economic benefits which an employer is required to pay pursuant to other federal, state, or local law are excluded. No credit shall be taken for the payments made for these economic benefits. For example, payments for worker's compensation insurance under either a compulsory or elective state statute are not payments for economic benefits under s. 66.0903 or 103.49, 2009 Stats. The omission in the above-mentioned statutes of any express reference to these payments, which are common in the construction industry, suggests that these payments shall not be regarded as an economic benefit.
DWD 290.01(10)(a) (a) Contribution irrevocably made by an employer to a trustee or to a third person. Contributions for bona fide economic benefits made to a trustee or to a third person irrevocably shall be considered in ascertaining any hourly contribution. The “third person" must be one who is not affiliated with the employer. The trustee must assume the usual fiduciary responsibilities imposed upon trustees by applicable law. The trust or fund, except those used for apprenticeship training, must be set up so that the employer be unable to recapture any of the required contributions paid in or to divert the funds.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: Although contributions made to a trustee or third person pursuant to a benefit plan must be irrevocably made, this does not prevent return to the employer of sums which were paid in excess of the contributions actually called for by the plan, as where such excess payments result from error or from the necessity of making payments to cover the estimated cost of contributions at a time when the exact amount of the necessary contributions under the plan is not yet ascertained. For example, a benefit plan may provide for definite insurance benefits for employees in the event of the happening of a specified contingency such as death, sickness, accident, etc., and may provide that the cost of such definite benefits, either in full or any balance in excess of specified employee contributions, will be borne by the employer. In such case the return by the insurance company to the employer of sums paid in excess of the amount required to provide the benefits which, under the plan, are to be provided through contributions by the employer, will not be deemed a recapture or diversion by the employer of contribution made pursuant to the plan.
DWD 290.01(10)(b) (b) Fund, plan or program. The contribution for an economic benefit must be made pursuant to a bona fide fund, plan, or program.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: The phrase “fund, plan, or program" is intended merely to recognize the various types of arrangements commonly used to provide economic benefits through employer contributions. In interpreting this phrase, the department will be guided by the experience of the United States department of labor and United States treasury department in administering the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, of the U.S. department of labor in administering other related programs, and of the Wisconsin state insurance commissioner in administering employee welfare funds under ch. 641 , Stats.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: Chapter 641, Stats., was repealed by 2003 Wis. Act 261.
DWD 290.01(10)(c) (c) Unfunded plans.
DWD 290.01(10)(c)1.1. The reasonable anticipated cost to an employer pursuant to an enforceable written commitment to carry out a financially responsible plan or program shall be considered as an economic benefit.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: These provisions are intended to permit the consideration of economic benefits that meet the requirements and are provided from the general assets of an employer.
DWD 290.01(10)(c)2. 2. No type of economic benefit is eligible for consideration as a so-called unfunded plan unless all of the following criteria apply:
DWD 290.01(10)(c)2.a. a. A copy has been supplied to the department.
DWD 290.01(10)(c)2.b. b. It could be reasonably anticipated to provide economic benefits described in s. 66.0903 or 103.49, 2009 Stats., and this subsection.
DWD 290.01(10)(c)2.c. c. It is a bona fide commitment.
DWD 290.01(10)(c)2.d. d. The plan or program providing the economic benefits has been communicated in writing to the affected laborers, workers, mechanics and truck drivers.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: As in the case of fringe benefit contributions made to a fund, plan, or program, an unfunded plan or program must be “bona fide" and not a mere simulation or sham to avoid compliance with s. 66.0903 or 103.49, 2009 Stats. In evaluating the per hour cost of the fringe benefit contribution for employers that “self-insure" all or a portion of their employees' health insurance, the department may use guidance from the discussion on determining the applicable premium for self-insured plans under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA) in the Employer's Handbook: Mandated Health Benefits, Thompson Publishing Group, 1725 K Street, N.W., Suite 200, Washington, D.C. 20006.
DWD 290.01(10m) (10m)“Incidental work" means work performed in a classification other than an employee's primary classification that is paid a lower prevailing wage rate and performed for 15% or less of the employee's time spent working on a particular project of public works or a particular publicly funded private construction project during a given work week.
DWD 290.01(11) (11)“Laborers, workers, mechanics and truck drivers" includes subjourneypersons and properly registered and indentured apprentices but excludes clerical, supervisory, and other personnel not performing manual labor.

DWD 290.01(12)(c) (c) For the projects of owners or developers under s. 66.0904, 2009 Stats., “minor service or maintenance work" has the same meaning as in s. 66.0904 (1) (fm), 2009 Stats.
DWD 290.01 Note Note: Section 66.0904 (1) (fm), 2009 Stats., provides that “minor service or maintenance work" means “a publicly funded private construction project that is limited to minor crack filling, chip or slurry sealing, or other minor pavement patching, not including overlays, that has a projected life span of no longer than 5 years; the depositing of gravel on an existing gravel road applied solely to maintain the road; road shoulder maintenance; cleaning of drainage or sewer ditches or structures; or any other limited, minor work on private facilities or equipment that is routinely performed to prevent breakdown or deterioration."
DWD 290.01(13) (13)“Minor subcontract" means a subcontract with an estimated cost that is less than $2,000.00 and an estimated work duration of less than 3 days.
DWD 290.01(15) (15)“Prevailing hours of labor" has the same meaning as in s. 103.49 (1) (c), 2009 Stats.
DWD 290.01(16)(a)(a) “Prevailing wage rate" has the same meaning as in ss. 66.0903 (1) (g), 66.0904 (1) (h), 103.49 (1) (d), and 103.50 (1) (d), 2009 Stats.

DWD 290.01 Note 2. If there is no rate at which a majority of the hours worked in the trade or occupation on projects in the area is paid, “prevailing wage rate" for any trade or occupation engaged in the erection, construction, remodeling, repairing or demolition of any project of public works in any area means the average hourly basic rate of pay, weighted by the number of hours worked, plus the average hourly contribution, weighted by the number of hours worked, for health insurance benefits, vacation benefits, pension benefits and any other bona fide economic benefit, paid directly or indirectly for all hours worked at the hourly basic rate of pay of the highest-paid 51% of hours worked in that trade or occupation on projects in that area." Sections 103.49 (1) (d) and 103.50 (1) (d), 2009 Stats., contain the same definition. Section 66.0904 (1) (h), 2009 Stats., contains the same definition except that it refers to a “publicly funded private construction project" instead of a “project of public works."
DWD 290.01(16)(b) (b) In determining whether there is a majority of hours worked at a particular rate of pay, the department shall consider the sum of the hourly basic rate of pay plus corresponding hourly contributions rate. If there is a majority of hours worked at the rate that is that sum and there is more than one combination of hourly basic rates plus hourly contributions rates that equal that sum, the prevailing wage rate shall be the hourly basic rate of pay and corresponding hourly contributions rate with the most hours reported that resulted in that sum.
DWD 290.01(16)(c) (c) In calculating the weighted average of the “highest-paid 51% of hours worked" in a trade or occupation, the department shall include all hours worked at the sum of the hourly basic rates of pay and corresponding hourly contributions rates that include the highest-paid 51% of hours worked.

DWD 290.015 DWD 290.015Collecting and compiling wage rate information.
DWD 290.015(1)(1)Annual survey. For the purpose of making prevailing wage rate determinations, the department shall conduct an annual survey of employers and compile the prevailing wage rate for each trade or occupation in each area. The survey shall consist of forms mailed by the department to employers or an electronic survey application for completion and return.
DWD 290.015 Note Note: The form referred to in this subsection may be obtained from the Department of Workforce Development, Equal Rights Division, P. O. Box 8928, Madison, WI 53708.
DWD 290.015(2) (2)Survey deadline. The department shall include a deadline date on the forms sent to employers. A survey form shall be accepted for initial compilation if it is received at the department's offices with a postmark or an electronic filing date that is on or before the deadline date and it is properly completed.
DWD 290.015(3) (3)Collective bargaining agreements. If the sum of the hourly basic rate of pay and allowable hourly contributions rate in a collective bargaining agreement that has been filed with the department for the current survey period is equal to the sum of the hourly basic rate of pay and hourly contributions rate that is found to prevail in a particular area for that particular trade or occupation on that particular type of work and the majority of hours used to determine the prevailing wage rates were submitted under a collective bargaining agreement, the department shall include in its determinations any future contractual increase or decrease provided for in the collective bargaining agreement or a successor agreement, that is filed before January 1 of the calendar year following the end of the survey period. The department, upon request, shall also include in its determinations any future contractual increase or decrease in overtime and premium pay, with the exception of height pay, pay for work with particular products, shift differential, and supervisory pay.
DWD 290.015(4) (4)Corrections. The department may correct errors in compiling data from the completed surveys, based upon its own determination or its inquiry to an employer.
DWD 290.015(5) (5)Insufficient data. If the wage rate data which the department may consider from all sources is insufficient to determine the prevailing wage rate for a particular trade or occupation in a particular area or for a particular type of project, the department may consider wage rate data compiled for a similar trade or occupation.
DWD 290.015(6) (6)Initial determinations and recalculation requests.
DWD 290.015(6)(a)(a) The department shall issue its initial prevailing wage determinations based on the annual survey. Any person may request a recalculation of any portion of an initial determination, based upon the submission of the evidence required by s. 66.0903 (3) (bm), 66.0904 (4) (d), or 103.49 (3) (b), 2009 Stats., if the request and the accompanying evidence are received at the department's offices within 30 days after the initial determination date.
DWD 290.015(6)(b) (b) The department will accept a recalculation request on the basis of evidence that the employer did not receive a survey, that the employer properly mailed a survey form which the department did not receive, or that the survey data previously submitted was erroneous. A recalculation request will not be granted for the consideration of data that could have been submitted as a part of the annual survey but was not submitted on time.
