Kentucky State Prevailing Wage Law

State law: None currently in effect

Kentucky repealed its state prevailing wage law in 2017. The state no longer sets prevailing rates for state-funded construction. Federal Davis-Bacon continues to apply to federally funded projects in Kentucky.

Verify before relying on this: state prevailing-wage laws change. The summary above is a general reference compiled from publicly available state-law materials and is not legal advice. Confirm the current status with the cited state agency or a qualified attorney before bidding or paying workers under it.

Federal contracts ≥ $2,000 in Kentucky must comply with the Davis-Bacon Act. Full compliance guide →
