Texas rules that this document follows

State prevailing-wage lawYes — Texas requires a public body to pay not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages on a public work contract, but the state prescribes no certified payroll form and no central filing.Source: Tex. Gov't Code § 2258.021
Certified payroll on state projectsNot required as a routine filing to the officers and agents of the public body, by inspection. A contractor or subcontractor must keep a record showing the name and occupation of each worker employed in the construction of the public work and the actual per diem wages paid to each worker; the record is open at all reasonable hours to inspection by the officers and agents of the public body. Texas has no state certified payroll form and no state submission portal — each political subdivision sets its own reporting practice by contract.Source: Tex. Gov't Code § 2258.024
Contract thresholdNo dollar threshold.Source: U.S. DOL, Wage and Hour Division, Dollar Threshold Amounts for Contract Coverage Under State Prevailing Wage Laws (Jan. 1, 2023)
Federal requirementContractors and subcontractors must submit weekly certified payrolls to the federal agency that is a party to the contract or, where the agency is not a party, to the applicant, sponsor, owner or other entity that maintains the records for transmission to the federal agency.Source: 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(a)(3)(ii)
Statement of complianceEach weekly payroll must be accompanied by a signed Statement of Compliance — page 2 of Form WH-347 or any document with identical wording — executed by the contractor, subcontractor, or the authorized officer or employee who supervises the payment of wages, and signed with an original handwritten signature or a legally valid electronic signature.Source: 29 C.F.R. § 3.3(b)
Worker identificationThe payroll submitted to the agency must not contain the worker's full social security number or home address; it shows an individual identifying number, such as the last four digits of the social security number.Source: 29 C.F.R. § 5.5(a)(3)(ii)(A); Form WH-347 instructions, column 1E
OvertimeOn covered contracts, laborers and mechanics must be paid one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked over 40 in a workweek.Source: 40 U.S.C. § 3702(a) (Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act)
