An Act amending the act of August 15, 1961 (P.L.987, No.442), known as the Pennsylvania Prevailing Wage Act, further providing for definitions, for specifications, for prevailing wage and for duty of secretary.

HB 846 amends Pennsylvania's Prevailing Wage Act to clarify job definitions, specify how prevailing wages are calculated for public construction projects, and detail the Labor Secretary's responsibilities. It directly affects construction workers, contractors, and state agencies managing public works by updating administrative processes. The bill makes technical changes to implementation without altering the core requirement that public projects pay local standard wages. These updates aim to improve consistency in applying the existing law across state-funded projects.
