(Includes LATHERS & PILEDRIVERS).

ELECTRICIAN (NORTH) - Townships of Newman, Murdock, Camargo, and East

The following list is considered as those days for which holiday rates
of wages for work performed apply: New Years Day, Memorial Day,
Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and
Veterans Day in some classifications/counties.  Generally, any of
these holidays which fall on a Sunday is celebrated on the following
Monday.  This then makes work performed on that Monday payable at the
appropriate overtime rate for holiday pay. Common practice in a given
local may alter certain days of celebration.  If in doubt, please
check with IDOL.

Oil and chip resealing (O&C) means the application of road oils and
liquid asphalt to coat an existing road surface, followed by
application of aggregate chips or gravel to coated surface, and
subsequent rolling of material to seal the surface.

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 217-782-1710 for  wage rates or
clarifications.
