HB 61 -- Prevailing Wage Sponsor: Ruestman Currently, workers employed on a public works project, except for maintenance workers, are to be paid a wage of no less than the prevailing hourly rate paid for similar work in the locality in which the work is to be performed. This bill exempts, except in counties with a charter form of government, work done on a school from the prevailing hourly wage rate requirement if the school board approves the exemption.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
