What is first year electrician wage?

Answer 1

Usually 50% of Journeyman's wages. If you are going union, currently Journeyman wages are $32.50. Non-union depends on the company, but usually around $25ish. So as a first year apprentice, expect between $12 and $15 per hour. Not bad for knowing nothing right off the bat!

Answer 2

The amount an apprentice electrician should make depends on where you are located and whether you sign up for a union apprenticeship or a nonunion apprenticeship. A union apprenticeship will pay more on the check and the contractors pay for your benefits (health insurance and retirement). Before you decide make sure it is a registered apprenticeship (in the US). Ask to see the registered apprenticeship standards. The standards are required to list the wage rates and how often you will get a raise during your apprenticeship. If you are in the US or Canada, search for The National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (NJATC) and you can find an electrical apprenticeship program near you. You can also contact your state's Department of Labor for more information.
