# Pennsylvania Sends Prevailing Wage Bill to Governor

Pennsylvania Senate Bill 908 passed the state House 128-75 and is awaiting the governor’s signature. If enacted, it would extend prevailing-wage requirements to off-site custom fabrication performed for public construction projects, making wage compliance relevant to contractors and fabricators bidding on or performing covered work.

- Contractors and fabricators should assess whether their off-site custom fabrication work could fall within the bill’s scope and account for prevailing-wage costs in bids if the bill is enacted.
- Public-sector procurement teams may need to reflect the expanded coverage in project estimates and contract administration for affected construction work.
