I'm having a friend research that for me now, as I had those exact same questions ... ah, I found it all on my own:
Fringe Benefits: • Fringe benefits can include health insurance premiums, retirement contributions, life insurance, vacation and other paid leave. • Fringe benefits do not include employer payments or contributions required by other Federal, State or local laws such as SSI. • Although a company’s fringe benefits and basic hourly rates may differ from the wage decision, the company’s fringe benefits + the basic hourly rate must equal the total amount shown in the wage decision (basic + fringe). • Example: Wage decision shows basic rate as $25 + $10 fringes. Company pays $20 basic + $15 fringe.
also - flaggers MUST be paid overtime - so if the construction job has a flagger on duty for more than 40 hours/week, it goes to time and a half.
Cops on detail do not qualify under the overtime laws.
