Answer:
|
|
If a material supplier, manufacturer or carrier undertakes to perform a part of a construction contract as a subcontractor, its laborers and mechanics employed at the site of the work would be subject to DBRA requirements in the same manner as those employed by any other contractor or subcontractor. This would include warranty and/or repair work. Employees of a material supplier who are required to perform more than an incidental amount of construction work (20%) in any workweek at the site of the work would be covered by the DBRA and due the applicable wage rate for the classification of work performed.
