DBRA (Davis-Bacon and Related Acts) and Section 3 technical assistance serve distinct but related purposes in ensuring compliance with federal labor and economic opportunity requirements particularly for federally funded construction and development projects.
Technical assistance for DBRA and Section 3 typically includes:
- Training and Guidance: Helping contractors understand and comply with wage determinations, proper worker classification, and documentation requirements.
- Ensuring Compliance: Educating contractors on prevailing wage laws, certified payroll reporting, and enforcement mechanisms.
