The Department of Labor issued its final rule and FAQs to update the Davis-Bacon regulations in August and the changes take effect on October 23. ACEC worked with outside counsel – Andy Martone of Hesse Martone, who is an employment law expert and counsel to ACEC-Illinois – on the attached Davis-Bacon memorandum.
The memorandum covers questions related to survey crews, inspectors, and material testers. It also provides general guidelines for whether Davis-Bacon covers employees.
