Fairfax County Living Wage Ordinance under Code Section 22.1, adopted in 2017, requires county service contractors to pay a periodically adjusted living wage above the Virginia minimum, but it does not extend to private hotels generally.
Fairfax County adopted a Living Wage Ordinance in 2017 codified at Code Section 22.1, requiring covered service contractors performing work for the county government to pay employees an hourly wage set above Virginia minimum wage, indexed to local cost of living. The Department of Procurement and Material Management oversees compliance, requires payroll certifications, and may debar noncompliant contractors. Unlike Los Angeles or other jurisdictions, Fairfax County has not extended a living wage to private hotel workers, and Virginia Dillon's Rule limits authority to do so without state enabling legislation.
Underpayment, missing certifications, or false reporting can result in contract termination, liquidated damages, and debarment from future county contracts.
