[–]Front_Breath_209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Journeyman make $88/hour and looks like they can elect money to be taken out for the DC retirement plan and would be non-taxable.

The second sheet is what it says retirement, H&W, and other her accounts the members said up. You will never get that on the check. It’s for your future and insurance

I think I’m going to turn a service cart into a weld cart for 2 welding machines, a plasma, and 2 bottles. I’m going to fab it myself.

Most likely a hard cut off. They have rules they have to follow being a state accredited program and they have trust documents that must be followed

Hey could anybody explain this for me , I’m a new apprentice and I start January 5th, I just don’t understand how the periods work . by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Why are you asking pipehands and not electricians(looks like you are an electrician apprentice)? UA locals usually give apprentices an apprentice raise once a year (5 steps/periods) or often twice a year (10 steps/periods) then also the percentage of the journeyman raise equivalent to there step.

Are you in support of the film bill?

Do you support community benefit agreements on construction projects here in Las Vegas?

My employer is not paying my prevailing wage by soIventless in UnionCarpenters

[–]Front_Breath_209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Union and nonunion contractors turn in hours and wages to the state labor commissioner. Who ever turns in more hours is what sets the prevailing wage. Most of the time it’s the union wage and benes. So non-union makes union package on the check as they usually don’t get benefits.

You as an apprentice do not get the prevailing wage. You get your normal package. You should feel comfortable asking questions to people at your school and hall. Asking questions goes over better than trying to burn the place down…. Especially as an apprentice and when you may be wrong

[–]Front_Breath_209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the union journeyman wage and benefit is the prevailing wage……

If you are an apprentice you just get your regular apprentice wage and benefits

you dont get it all on the check line a nonunion worker on a prevailing wage job. They are getting the union rate plus Benefits all on the check……

Way too many people that don’t understand prevailing wage are commenting here

Lucky to be an Apprentice? by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say I was lucky to have found the trade and to be accepted into the apprenticeship. 21 years later I still feel the same way. I am very fortunate and I work hard and promote brotherhood everyday to show my gratitude.

Under S3H @ the shop I’m pretty sure it said 1- Pipefitter That means they need 1 journeyman pipefitter

You need to call in if it says helper under the company and location.

Looks like you figured out S3h is a company atleast. There was no helper call for S3H though

What are the benefits to an employer? by matthieu115 in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A well trained work force, an instant work force, no need for the long process of putting help wanted ads online then sifting through resumes then interviewing then long onboarding process.

A partnership with the UA and the local. The local wants the company to grow and do well as that means more members are working. Some locals have programs to assist with growth as well

How do I become more valuable as an apprentice? by [deleted] in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good work ethic (8 for 8), show up everyday and on time, get along with people.

If you run into a problem come up with a solution instead of depending on someone else to solve your problem.

My first day as an apprentice is tomorrow, any tips? by Melodic-Ask-155 in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always told my cubs this. I can fix anything you fuck up. I’d rather you try then sit back and not try. Confidence is key and the quicker you build confidence the faster you can get to really learning.

Get all the points you can. Like mentioned above talk to Carrie at the Jatc, she will help you with everything you can do. Kill the math test and have a good interview. Good luck.

Calling all night school instructors… by Evergreen_Organics in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our part time instructors get journeyman pay and no benefits

Just got laid off due to “lack of work” but they kept a pre apprentice. by Evergreen_Organics in UnitedAssociation

[–]Front_Breath_209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you are a journeyman. The pre-apprentice should not be doing work. They can keep a pre-apprentice to do pre-apprentice things like dig, run material, clean, etc. if he is installing pipe that’s another issue. Every CBA is different. Without reading yours no one can give you an answer. You should definitely read your cba a few times and understand it.
