Below is an example of how much can be saved in labor burden costs by contributing the fringe benefit portion of the prevailing wage into Beneco’s approved plan(s):

The Beneco Basic and Beneco Choice Plans

A contractor working on projects subject to the Davis-Bacon Act or state prevailing wage laws can either pay out 100% of the prevailing wage rate (base wage plus fringe directly to their employee) or can contribute all or part of the fringe into a bona fide approved plan(s). The fringe amount contributed by the employer escapes FICA, SUTA, FUTA, Medicare, Workers Compensation premiums, and general liability premiums** for the employer. The employee saves FICA, Medicare, Federal and State income tax. The employer can contribute the fringe into a pension plan, health & welfare plan, vacation program, or a combination of plans.
