About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Painters DC 58 wage & fringe benefits bond actually guarantees

The Painters District Council No. 58 wage-and-fringe-benefits bond is the security a signatory employer posts under Article XIII (Wage and Benefit Bond) of the council's working agreement — a condition of the union contract, not a state licensing statute. It guarantees payment of wages, administrative dues check-off, and contributions to the fringe benefit plans the working agreement makes obligatory.

It is a three-party arrangement: the contractor (principal), the surety carrier, and Painters District Council No. 58 or its fringe benefit funds (obligee), protecting covered painters, drywall finishers, and glaziers across the council's Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, and Tennessee jurisdiction. If an employer fails to pay wages or remit fund contributions, the council can claim against the bond; if the surety pays, the employer repays the surety.

The working agreement commonly sets the security at $15,000, with the option for an employer unable to post a bond of that size to instead pay 10% above the amounts due each month into the fringe benefit and dues check-off funds. Enter the amount your council specified; your premium is priced from a $100 minimum after a one-time credit consent that authorizes a soft pull only.
