Glendale Prevailing Wage Lawyer
Glendale Prevailing Wage Attorney
Workers in Glendale who perform public works or government-funded projects are entitled to be paid according to California’s prevailing wage laws. If you are an employee who has not received fair wages or an employer unsure about your obligations, consulting a Glendale prevailing wage lawyer can help clarify your rights and responsibilities under these complex regulations.
These laws set a minimum wage rate that must be paid to workers in specific industries, not only ensuring fair compensation but also preventing undercutting in public projects. That is why the team at Nosrati Law is ready to support you as you navigate this legal minefield.
Understanding Prevailing Wage Laws in California
In California, prevailing wage laws require that workers on public works projects be paid a specific rate, which is determined by the type of work they do and the cost of living in the region where the project is located. The California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) sets these wage rates for various classifications of work, ensuring that contractors on public projects provide fair compensation to workers in line with the industry standards in that area.
Prevailing wage laws are crucial in maintaining balance and fairness in government-funded projects. Without them, contractors might attempt to reduce labor costs by paying below-market wages, which would hurt workers and distort competition. These laws apply to a wide range of public works projects, including construction, alteration, demolition, installation, and repair.
If you believe your employer has not paid the required prevailing wages, our Glendale employment attorneys can assist in determining whether you are entitled to back pay and other remedies.
