I work for a mason and we are doing some work in Boston for the city. I think I'm supposed to be getting the Massachusetts prevailing wage but I have no idea what that is. How can I find out for sure without asking my boss?

Editor's Response
As long as you are not in a supervisory role and you are working on a public works project, you are entitled to the prevailing wage, as established my Massachusetts law. The prevailing wage may vary from project to project, but MA law requires a wage schedule to be posted in a "conspicuous place" on all public construction sites. If you cannot find such a posting, you can contact the the awarding agency or authority for the project and ask for the wage schedule. Or, you can contact the Fair Labor and Business Practices Division at:
200 Portland St, Boston, MA 02114 (617)727-3465
165 Liberty St., Springfield, MA 01103 (413)784-1128
1 Exchange Place, Worcester, MA 01608 (508)792-7600
184 North St., Pittsfield, MA 02102 (413)447-7324
105 William Street, First Floor, New Bedford, MA 02740 (508) 990-9700
