AN ACT CONCERNING PREVAILING WAGE RATES ON PUBLIC WORKS CONTRACTS.

HB 6412 requires state public works contracts to lock in the prevailing wage rate for the entire project duration, instead of adjusting it periodically. It also mandates annual percentage increases to this locked rate for the full contract term. This applies directly to contractors and workers on state-funded construction projects like roads, schools, and government buildings. The bill aims to provide consistent wage expectations for all parties throughout the project timeline.
