If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year . Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at www. dol . gov/whd/govcontracts . Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5 . 5 (a) (1 ) (ii) ) . ----------------------------------------------------------- The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type (s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination . The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of ""identifiers" " that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local) , a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate) . Union Rate Identifiers A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other EXHIBIT A Page 31 of 34 than ""SU" " or " "UAVG" " denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example : PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014 . PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers . 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i . e . , Plumbers Local 0198 . The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination . 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1 , 2014 . Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate . Survey Rate Identifiers Classifications listed under the ""SU"" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification . As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates . Example : SULA2012-007 5/13/2014 . SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average calculation of rates and are not majority rates . LA indicates the State of Louisiana . 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination . 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier . Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. Union Average Rate Identifiers Classification (s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those classifications; however, 1000 of the data reported for the EXHIBIT A Page 32 of 34 classifications was union data . EXAMPLE : UAVG-OH-0010 08/29/2014 . UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate . OH indicates the state . The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination . 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier . A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based. ----------------------------------------------------------- WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS 1 . ) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be : * an existing published wage determination * a survey underlying a wage determination * a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter * a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional Offices have responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2 . ) and 3 . ) should be followed. With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations . Write to : Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U . S . Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. EXHIBIT A Page 33 of 34 Washington, DC 20210 2 . ) If the answer to the question in 1 . ) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1 . 8 and 29 CFR Part 7) . Write to : Wage and Hour Administrator U . S . Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party' s position and by any information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc . ) that the requestor considers relevant to the issue . 3 . ) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board) .
