• Prevailing Wage Cheating - The Stubs are Not Enough! You know you’ve got money coming. Your $15 - $20 per hour is not close to what is posted on the public works job you are on. Be aware that keeping your pay stubs is rarely enough to get back pay. Government agencies are going to need to get beyond “he said/she said.” It is extremely important to keep a log of the hours you work, your pay rate, and where you worked in order to get back pay. Keep a log!
