Welcome

 

Construction Business Group is a non-profit Joint Labor-Management organization.  Our purpose is to enhance business opportunities and quality of life by insuring fairness, equity and standards of excellence in the construction industry of Wisconsin.  To achieve that purpose, we work with employers, employees and contracting agencies to insure fair and responsible public contracting throughout Wisconsin.  We also work directly with state agencies to ensure laws applicable to the construction industry are properly enforced. 

 

It is important to everyone that all prevailing wage laws, public bidding laws, labor standards and safety regulations are followed on all public construction projects.  These requirements are critical to the economic vitality of our state and ensure equal opportunity and protections for both contractors and construction workers.  We help ensure that the contracting process for public construction work is administered equally and fairly and that the work awarded is done so based on the contractor’s ability to complete the work competently and efficiently while also maintaining community established compensation and work quality standards.  

 

We monitor public construction projects to ensure compliance with the law and assist contractors, employees and contracting agencies in their compliance efforts including completion of prevailing wage surveys.  Our services are available free of charge and all inquiries are strictly confidential.  For more information, please  contact us.
