Davis Bacon Act 

  Federal construction contracts in excess of $2000 are subject to the Davis-Bacon Act, which requires payment of local "prevailing wages" including the "anticipated cost of prevailing benefits." Generally, this is expressed as a per-hour wage and per-hour cash equivalent value of benefits, and is often based on a union scale. Prevailing wages are set by the U.S. Department of Labor and are included in the bid specifications of covered contracts.

  Many contractors pay the fringe benefit portion of the prevailing wage as additional cash wages, believing it's the easiest way to comply with the law.

DO NOT PAY FRINGE BENEFIT IN CASH! This costs you money!
