Other Classifications of Work:

For definitions of classifications not otherwise set out, the
Department generally has on file such definitions which are available.
If a task to be performed is not subject to one of the
classifications of pay set out, the Department will upon being
contacted state which neighboring county has such a classification and
provide such rate, such rate being deemed to exist by reference in
this document.  If no neighboring county rate applies to the task, the
Department shall undertake a special determination, such special
determination being then deemed to have existed under this
determination.  If a project requires these, or any classification not
listed, please contact IDOL at 618/993-7271 for wage rates or
clarifications.
