New York general laborer rates
General laborer charge-out is the most-used T&M labor line on civil tickets. It is not a pipelayer or a skilled laborer. OT rules belong on your sheet so the field does not invent them. In New York, the general laborer central reference is $80 USD/hr (range $65 USD to $90 USD, as of 2026-08). That figure is a reference estimate for labor charge-out. Nearby-book checks: New Jersey central reference $75 USD/hr, and Pennsylvania central reference $60 USD/hr. These are public reference figures, not a quote. Bill the rate on the signed project sheet.
