Wyoming Construction Compliance Requirements

Everything general contractors need to know about lien law, prevailing wage, insurance, and OSHA compliance in Wyoming.

Mechanics Lien Law

Wyoming mechanics liens must be filed within 150 days of last furnishing under WS 29-2-101 et seq. A preliminary notice is required for subcontractors to preserve lien rights. Wyoming provides lien protections for contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers.

Key Deadlines

Preliminary notice: Required for subcontractors
150 days: Mechanics lien filing deadline from last furnishing
180 days: Lien enforcement deadline

Prevailing Wage Requirements

Wyoming does not have a state prevailing wage law. Federal Davis-Bacon applies to federally funded projects only. No state certified payroll requirements.

Insurance Requirements

Workers compensation through Wyoming Department of Workforce Services (state fund). Minimum $1M general liability typical. Wyoming operates a monopolistic state workers comp fund (no private carriers).

OSHA & Safety Compliance

Wyoming operates a state OSHA plan through Wyoming OSHA under the Department of Workforce Services. Covers both public and private sector. Standards generally mirror federal OSHA with state enforcement.
