Who is the PWCA?

The Prevailing Wage Contractors Association (PWCA) is a not-for-profit organization sponsoring tax-advantaged prevailing wage benefit programs for its members. PWCA members fund our benefit plans with the fringe rate from prevailing wage schedules on all prevailing wage jobs. Our members are able to keep fringe rate dollars buying non-taxable benefits instead of taxable payroll. All our members enjoy a competitive advantage because of the tax savings.

Our union members all have workers who have short work years, fewer than 2080 hours, and use the SUB trust in the collective bargaining process. They have found it is cheaper to bargain for benefits to cover periods of unemployment rather than a base rate of pay increase. Payroll has expensive payroll taxes and benefits do not. These programs help employers comply favorably with the various prevailing wage laws on the Federal, state, and local levels.

Mission Statement

Our purpose is to help both Union and Non-Union employers comply with the various prevailing wage laws in the most convenient manner. We sponsor Supplement Unemployment Benefits and Retirement plans that accomplish this goal.
