In each case, the 2009 CBA wages will be based on the amounts shown in Form 3G of Contractor's Proposal. Updated wages will be prepared on the Wage and Benefits Worksheet (included in Attachment 12-D) to input wage rates payable under the collective bargaining agreements in place in 2010. There will be no increase in the number of standard or overtime hours used in the calculation. 2.

Updated benefits, similarly expressed, will be prepared on the Wage and Benefits Worksheet included in Attachment 12-D to input the benefit rates per person as provided by collective bargaining agreements in place in 2010. 3. Workers' compensation insurance: the adjustment factor will be based on the average change to the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Private Industry Employment Cost Index for Total All Workers (not seasonally adjusted, total benefits, series no. Cl U2030000000000A). 4. Payroll taxes: an effective payroll tax rate will be calculated from Contractor's Cost Forms and applied to CBA wages to calculate payroll tax expense. The payroll taxes adjustment factor will be based on changes in federal Social Security, Medicare, and state payroll tax rates in 2009 and those projected to be in effect for Rate Year One. Contractor will submit to SBWMA for approval any adjustment to the effective payroll tax rate. If approved, the adjustment factor will be applied to the effective tax rate and the adjusted effective tax rate will then be used to calculate payroll tax expense.
