In Indiana, a contractor isn't required to pay 'prevailing wage" on a job done for an individual or a corporation.
That only applies to work done for the government.
So contractors can pay their employees whatever the employees agree to work for, subject to state and federal minimum wage and overtime provisions.
HOWEVER...the best workers will seek out the companies that pay them what they're worth. So a contractor paying at or just above minimum wage will generally NOT have the most skilled people working for him.
And employees have ALWAYS had the right to work at non-union jobs. If they don't want to work for a union employer, they simply don't apply for work at an employer that has a union. It really is that simple. At a union employer, there are contractual terms that affect how, when, and why an employee can be terminated. At a non-union employer in an "at-will" state, you can be fired for ANY reason...or for NO reason. So these "right-to-work" laws, in MY view, are about killing unions, and NOT about anyone's "right" to work at a non-union employer. It's a misnomer.

Flax provided the fibre which w
