Apprentice Rates

1 St Year Rate Is Usually About 30 To 35 %of The Journeyman's Rate
does anybody know what the average rate for a first year apprentice is?

The rate varies according to the local contract. Here in 661 land I belive the starting pay is something like 10.45 and hr. with raises every 6 months.
In Oregon, and going union, it's 40% of the local prevailing Journeyman wage. That translates to about 13.85$ here in PDX.
All markets are different. In my local(332) starting rate is about $19.65.
$19.65 for a first year apprentice?
In 164, Essex,Bergan and Hudaon Counties (North Jersey) it's about $17 even.
$19.65 for a first year apprentice?
Yes. Its about 40% of jw rate I believe.
