Why does Service Contract Act matter?

The Service Contract Act (SCA) requires contractors performing services on federal contracts exceeding $2,500 to pay service employees prevailing wages and provide fringe benefits as determined by the Department of Labor. It is the services equivalent of Davis-Bacon.

Key Provisions

  • Prevailing wage and fringe benefit requirements for service workers
  • Wage determinations issued by DOL for each contract
  • Applies to contracts principally for services exceeding $2,500
  • Health and welfare, vacation, and holiday benefit requirements
  • Successor contractor obligations for employee compensation

Impact on Contractors

Service contractors must price labor at SCA-determined rates, which include both wages and fringe benefits. Understanding wage determination lookups and SCA classifications is essential for accurate pricing on federal service contracts.
