PWR (Prevailing Wage Rate)
The Prevailing Wage Rate (PWR) is a rate set by the government for certain types of occupations or job roles. It is an important factor in procurement as it serves to protect businesses competing for contracts from unfair wage and labor practices. PWR helps ensure that all employees are appropriately compensated for their work, which can help lead to greater job satisfaction, efficiency, and productivity among staff. Additionally, it helps maintain adherence to ethical labor standards and encourages fair competition between businesses.
