Electrical contractors affiliated with ElectricCareer.com offer very competitive salaries and an outstanding array of benefits.

As our industry is large and diverse, and local conditions differ across the country, we cannot quote you a dollar-per-hour rate that you will be paid. However, our wage rates are among the highest in electrical construction – if not, in various local areas, the absolute highest rates – for apprentices and journey-level employees.

More importantly, the benefits – which, again, vary from place to place – are impressive. We urge you to consider the benefits, including health care and retirement plans, as part of your compensation package.

Nationally, all of our workers are covered under one of the 100 largest pension funds in the United States. This is a defined-benefit plan – unlike so many retirement plans today, which have shifted to a defined-contribution set-up. This is a tremendous advantage – just this national pension plan alone. Many workers have learned to their misfortune that a defined benefit plan is superior to what can be offered in a single defined contribution plan (where contributions by employers often include company stock.)

Additionally, many contractors in local areas have set up 401(k) and other supplemental pension plans.
What’s more, there are additional benefits, including annuities, vacation time, and more – depending on where you choose to work.

Summarizing: Wages offered by the electrical contractors affiliated with this Web site are second to none. The benefits accompanying these wages can account for 20% to even 40% of your wages. There is no "better deal" anywhere in electrical construction!

Why? We want the best. We get the best. That’s why our employees deserve the best!
