Davis-Bacon Prevailing Wages in Florida
Select a county to view wage determinations for building, heavy, highway, and residential construction projects in Florida (FL).
Florida has 67 counties with active Davis-Bacon wage determinations (816 total WDs) across four construction types — building, heavy, highway, and residential. Federal construction contracts of $2,000 or more in Florida must pay no less than the DOL-published prevailing wage and fringe benefits for the project's county and construction type.
Florida State Prevailing Wage Law
Florida has no state prevailing wage law and explicitly preempts local prevailing wage ordinances on public-works contracts. Federal Davis-Bacon remains the only prevailing-wage regime applicable to construction in Florida, and only on federally funded projects.
