Public works certified payroll in Riverside County
Live registration activity for Riverside County contractors on California public works, and the certified payroll duties that come with every one of those listings.
Data updated 2026-07-01
What the data shows
These figures come from DIR's public PWC-100 project registrations, matched to CSLB license records. They count contractors licensed in Riverside County who were newly listed on public works project registrations between 2026-06-26 and 2026-07-01. Each listing starts a certified payroll clock: eCPRs to DIR at least monthly on non-exempt projects, and the federal WH-347 weekly where federal funds apply.

The awarding body sets the portal story. The state sets the eCPR story. They are separate duties: a portal upload answers the awarding body's monitoring, and the state requires its own filing regardless, spelled out with the primary source in the duties below.
Prevailing wage rates for your county
Prevailing wage determinations are set by craft and by county. Before the first certified payroll on a new project, pull the current determination for Riverside County from DIR's prevailing wage determinations and check every classification you will use. Rate and classification mistakes are the most expensive kind: they surface months later as wage assessments, not as bounced uploads.
Your filing duties on these projects
- Direct DIR eCPR filing. On a registered public works project you submit electronic certified payroll records directly to DIR at least monthly, or more often when the contract says so, under your own PWCR registration (Labor Code 1771.4). DIR is explicit that submitting certified payroll to the awarding body, the prime, or a portal "does not put you in compliance with the state unless you submit eCPRs directly to DIR" (DIR eCPR FAQ).
- Federal WH-347 weekly when federal money is in the project, with the Statement of Compliance signed (U.S. Department of Labor).
- Records on demand. A written request for certified payroll records starts a 10 day clock. Miss it and the penalty is $100 per worker per calendar day, enforceable by withholding from your progress payments (Labor Code 1776).
