WAGES -
APPRENTICESHIP INFORMATION
Apprentice wage rates have been adjusted to the
following percentage of Journeymen scale:
First year- 50% of
Journeymen's wage rate
Second year- 60% of Journeymen's wage rate
Third year- 85% of Journeymen's wage rate
Thereafter- 100% of Journeymen's wage rate
The
ratio of Journeymen to Apprentice Painters is
illustrated below. In addition to the structure
outlined in the chart below, an Employer will be
allowed to hire one Apprentice Painter for every
three Journeymen Painters employed. As an example,
an Employer that employs twelve Journeymen Painters
would be allowed to employ a maximum of five
Apprentice Painters; fifteen Journeymen Painters
would qualify an Employer for six Apprentice
Painters, and so on.
