Other Classifications of Work:
For definitions of classifications not otherwise set out, the Department generally has on file such definitions which are available. If there
is no such definition on file, the Bureau of Labor Statistics SIC list will be used. 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. Further, if no such 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.
LANDSCAPING
Landscaping work falls under the existing classifications for laborer, operating engineer and truck driver. The work performed by landscape
plantsman and landscape laborer is covered by the existing classification of laborer. The work performed by landscape operators (regardless
of equipment used or its size) is covered by the classifications of operating engineer. The work performed by landscape truck drivers
(regardless of size of truck driven) is covered by the classifications of truck driver.

Dear Mayor:
The governmental organization you direct has the responsibility to establish wage rates annually
for construction projects under your control. By law, this is to occur during the month of June.
Often the wage rates established by the Illinois Department of Labor are automatically adopted
by municipalities.
Landscape industry wage classifications are not recognized in those rates. And, those rates are
not those that prevail in the landscape industry. What this means is that you, your taxpayers
and your contractors spend thousands of unnecessary dollars on landscape projects. The Illinois
Department of Labor prevailing wage rate reflects a misclassification of landscape work as
"construction laborer" at $19.95 plus nearly $4 in fringe benefits.
On March 19, 1993, the U.S. Department of Labor re-established the enclosed landscape
classifications in ten northern Illinois counties based on the results of a lengthy wage survey of
building, residential, heavy and highway projects. These classifications further prove that the
rates used by the State of Illinois are not those that prevail in the industry. In addition, there
are in effect bargaining agreements with both the Teamsters and Operating Engineers for
landscape work. Today, everyone faces both tightening budgets and greater needs for spending.
Here is at least one area where you can save significant dollars.
We encourage you to exercise your prerogative and responsibility to establish fair and
representative wages rates for your construction projects by using the wages that prevail in the
industry. Survey your area for representative wage rates. This process has been successfully
tested in court by a local governing body (Circuit Court for the 16th Judicial Circuit, Kane
County, Illinois Gen. No. MR KA '84 200).
If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to call this association.
Sincerely,
Patricia Cassady
Executive Director
enc.
ILCA's Mission... to enhance the professionalism and capabilities of members by providing leadership,
education and valued services while promoting environmental awareness within the landscape industry.
