Prevailing Wages for H-1B and PERM

Managing prevailing wages is an important compliance issue. Companies that underpay face back wage orders, interest, fines and penalties. 

The prevailing wage is the average wage for similarly employed workers in the same geographical area. Employers must pay the higher of the actual wage (average wage that employer pays similar workers) and the prevailing wage (the average wage employers generally pay similar workers).
