Prevailing Wage Compliance Support
To receive the full (bonus) credit—up to 5x the base rate—for eligible energy projects (like solar, wind, battery storage, etc.), employers must pay laborers and mechanics the prevailing wage rates (as defined by the U.S. Department of Labor) for similar jobs in the local area. This applies to construction, alteration, or repair work on the energy project. The wage rates are typically outlined in Davis-Bacon Act determinations.
IRA Projects - Certified Payroll
Certified payroll refers to weekly payroll reports submitted using U.S. Department of Labor Form WH-347 or an equivalent format. These reports document employee name and classification, hours worked each day and total for the week, hourly rate of pay, including fringe benefits, gross wages earned and deductions, net wages paid, project name and location, and a signed statement of compliance.
Labor Compliance
Labor compliance is a central requirement in many Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) projects, particularly for developers aiming to receive the full value of clean energy tax credits. Failing to meet labor standards like prevailing wage and apprenticeship participation can significantly reduce credit amounts and lead to penalties.
