I can't give you a simple answer to that question. However I can say that as a rule a Union plumber makes more per hour and has pension and health benefits that may not come with a non Union job. Obviously I am Pro Union.

It depends on the trade, which city and state you work in, your experience, and union or non-union. I am a glazier in Tacoma, WA. I have been doing this for four years and I am union (local 188). I make $36/hr and $38/hr if I am the foreman on a job.

The range is about 1000.00-1500.00 per day on union commercials. The union minimum rate is above 800.00 per day. Rates for non-union commercial projects are negotiable.
Unions are always better; Union electricians, members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, make a lot more in wages and benefits than non-union electricians Source: http://www.join-a-union.com answer #2 ------------ Depends on the local market. In a large city there is more work for a union electrician on large construction projects. In a more suburban or rural area a union electrician may be out of work more than a non-union electrician since most projects are smaller and cost is a big issue. Some electrical contractors work in both worlds, their workers get paid union rates on prevailing wage projects and a lower rate on non prevailing wage projects. Most of these contractors are non-union since the union usually won't work for less money. So union members make more when they work but they may not work as much as a non-union experienced electrician depending on the local market and the contractor they work for.

It depends whether or not you are union or non-union. If you are a member of IUOE Local 825 you are making between $40 - $46 per hour plus $22 per hour for your benefit package. If you are non-union, you'll make $18 - $28 per hour and you are lucky to have any benefits.
$200-$1000 non-union jobs, union jobs in the higher thousands.
