We do not have any certified payrolls to demonstrate compliance with the Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Act. Can this requirement be waived to facilitate the receipt of the state grant?
The Office of the Budget cannot grant waivers for the Prevailing Wage Act. All applicants must comply with the act. Any attempts to circumvent this requirement are being rigorously monitored by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry. Grantees that fail to abide by the Prevailing Wage Act do so at their own risk. Additionally, the grantee/subgrantee must provide a copy of the Department of Labor & Industry’s Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Determination Letter issued for the specific project to demonstrate compliance with the Prevailing Wage Act. The project should apply to the Department of Labor & Industry for the determination letter before construction begins.
