Montana Prevailing Wage Rates
The Compliance and Investigation Bureau conducts surveys to establish the prevailing wage rates for construction and nonconstruction services. Prevailing Wage Rates are revised and adopted yearly.
If you have a question about complying with the prevailing wage regulations (occupations, payroll forms, payment of fringe benefits, travel or per diem, etc.) or about the wage rates in our publications, call the Employment Relations Division and ask to speak to a Prevailing Wage Compliance Specialist.
