HUD-4730 Federal Labor Standards Questionnaire

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT Office of Davis-Bacon and Labor Standards ON-LINE EMPLOYEE QUESTIONNAIRE

HUD FORM 4730E OMB Approval Number 2501-0018 (Exp. XX/XX/XXXX)

Many construction projects assisted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) are covered by federal labor standards. These standards include the payment of prevailing wage rates as determined by the Secretary of Labor, otherwise known as Davis-Bacon wage rates. In addition, many projects are covered by overtime rules that require the payment of one and one-half times the regular rate of pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Construction workers who are paid less than prevailing wages for the work they perform or who do not receive time and one-half for overtime hours worked may be entitled to wage restitution (backwages). Also, maintenance workers employed at many public and Indian housing projects are covered by prevailing wage rates determined by HUD. Maintenance workers that do not receive prevailing wages or, in some cases, overtime pay, may also be entitled to wage restitution.

If you think that you may not have been paid correctly for construction or maintenance work that you performed on a HUD-assisted project, you can complete this questionnaire and submit it to HUD electronically by clicking on the “Submit” button at the end of the form. Or you can print your completed form and mail it to HUD at the following address:
