Public Bodies

We help public bodies understand laws and policies that impact the public construction industry. For public bodies, we…

• Provide accurate wage rate and worker classification information.
• Help public bodies understand their rights and responsibilities under the law.
• Conduct periodic interviews with employees on construction projects.
• Conduct seminars and presentations about prevailing wage, OSHA compliance, and other policies and labor laws related to public bidding and the public construction industry.

The III FFC‘s goal is to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely on projects completed by responsible contractors and skilled workers. Enforcement of prevailing wage laws and other construction industry policies help keep disreputable contractors from bidding on projects. In fact, wage laws have an important role in helping maintain a stable local economy by providing a more reliable and predictable tax flow into our public treasuries.
