New Monitoring Requirements for Prevailing Wage Projects
Friday, 20 January 2012 12:39
As of January 1, the newly created Compliance Monitoring Unit (CMU) within the California Department of Labor Standards and Enforcement (DLSE) monitors and enforces prevailing wage requirements on public works projects. State law requires local agencies undertaking specific public works projects to undergo direct prevailing-wage compliance monitoring by the CMU. The following projects, awarded on or after January 1, 2012, are subject to CMU oversight if:
  • The project is funded by any state-issued bond, except for projects that receive any funds through Proposition 84 (2006 Water project bond initiative).
  • Design-build projects conducted by school and community college districts, counties, cities and transit operators.
  • Projects coming under any of the 12 design-build or 2 other statutes that require monitoring from the CMU or an authorized exception as a condition for project authorization. (To see a complete list of these statutes, please click here.)

For more information on further exemptions and specific details on the CMU, please click here.
