Massachusetts State Law requires that all City Departments including Schools receive certified payroll from vendors & contractors performing work inside or outside of public buildings & spaces. This work includes general construction, repairs, alterations and installations. There are limited exemptions.

Certified payroll is required for any labor amount over $1.00 with a contract or bid or without.

When submitting invoices to the requesting department, vendors must include the Prevailing Wages Compliance Form and the Prevailing Wages Payroll Form.
