WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:
♦ an existing published wage determination
♦ a survey underlying a wage determination
♦ a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter
♦ a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling
On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the
Wage and Hour Regional Office for the area in which the survey was conducted because those Regional
Offices have responsibility for the Davis -Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is
not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be
with the Branch of construction wage Determinations. Write to:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20210
2.) If the answer to the question in 1.) is yes, then an interested party (those affected by the action) can request
review and reconsideration from the Wage and Hour Administrator (See 29 CFR Part 1.8 and 29 CFR Part 7).
Write to:
Wage and Hour Administrator
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20210
The request should be accompanied by a full statement of the interested party's position and by any
information (wage payment data, project description, area practice material, etc.) that the requestor considers
relevant to the issue.
3.) If the decision of the Administrator is not favorable, an interested party may appeal directly to the
Administrative Review Board (formerly the Wage Appeals Board). Write to:
Administrative Review Board
U.S. Department of Labor
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20210
4.) All Decisions of the Administrative review board are final.
