An Act clarifying the prevailing wage law

This bill amends Massachusetts' prevailing wage law to explicitly include the inspection, testing, and repair of fire protection systems in public buildings and public works projects. It directly affects contractors and workers performing these specific fire safety services on state or municipal construction projects. The key mechanism is adding these fire system maintenance activities to the list of work covered by the existing prevailing wage requirements. This clarifies that workers on these tasks must receive the same wage rates as other covered workers on public projects. The change applies to all relevant public construction projects governed by Chapter 149, Section 27D.
