When should a truck driver receive prevailing wage?

CaliforniaPrevailing Wages

ok - question... my husband is a driver for a construction company - they build solar structures at school as other sites. When he is working on site - should he as a driver who loads and unloads machines and materials be paid prevailing wage? He brought it up to his supervisor one time because someone mentioned it to him and while he was working - but he was quickly shut down when he asked about it. We were just wondering how to find out. Thank you

I'll be the first to admit that, beyond the basics, I'm not extremely versed in the ins and outs of California's prevailing wage requirements. However, United Contractors issued a revised "Prevailing Wage Information For Trucking" in 2016 which should be helpful in determining whether or not prevailing wages should be paid. That document should be very helpful for determining whether prevailing wages should be paid for the specific work being done - and it appears most onsite trucking work for public works projects will require that prevailing wages be paid. Additionally, regarding off-site hauling, this resource should be valuable: Frequently asked questions – Off-Site Hauling | CA Department of Industrial Relations. Ultimately, if prevailing wages are required and not being paid, it could be helpful to reach out to a local prevailing wage attorney or to make a wage complaint.

Los accidentes mas comunes tienen dos protagonistas: la parte responsable y la parte inocente. La parte responsable DEBE pagar por todos los daños causados a la víctima. Es así de claro. Nosotros tenemos muy claro esto, por eso llevamos más de $200 millones de dólares acumulados entre todos los casos que hemos ganado. Enfrentar a las compañías de seguro sin representación te puede costar muy caro. Llámanos y deja que nuestros abogados se encarguen de tu reclamo. https://abogadosdeaccidentesahora.com/locaciones/abogados-de-accidentes-en-san-bernardino/abogado-de-accidentes-de-carro-en-san-bernardino/
