With the UA it $26.62 on hour or $56,160 per year(no overtime) plus $1.00 an
hour goes into annuity savings.The contractor pays that dollar and ALL your
health insurance and retirement nothing is deducted from your check. Total
benefit package is $7.00 an hour or $14,560.00 per year for a total
compensation of $70,720.If you work a little overtime obviously your yearly
compensation goes up.What is the going rate in other areas of the country?
