Sec. 2. (1) Every contract executed between a contracting agent and a successful bidder as contractor and entered into pursuant to advertisement and invitation to bid for a state project that requires or involves the employment of construction mechanics, other than those subject to the jurisdiction of the state civil service commission, must include an express term that the rates of wages and fringe benefits to be paid to each class of mechanics by the bidder and all of its subcontractors must not be less than the wage and fringe benefit rates prevailing in the locality in which the work is to be performed.
