Hi guys,
Just wondered what the average hourly rate is for a PAYE employed spark.
Ive worked for local government for a few years and they are not the best for good rates of pay. Been offered a start for a private firm for around ÂŁ13.50/hr. Is this anywhere near the mark??
Not sure if its relevant but this is in North Yorkshire, I know sometimes pay differs through out the country.
 
Which is a very sad reflection on the state of the industry, the JIB rate should be the minimum rate an electrician is paid!

Yeah I totally agree with you but unfortunately here in Hull most company's pay around ÂŁ12hr as I have seen many adverts for jobs and all say ÂŁ12 some say less.

I think I should be on more but I have to take what I can get in my area.
 
Companies purposely opt out of being JIB registered so they don't have to pay the rates.
I don't know anyone up in the north east who's paid the JIB going rate.
I'm behind ÂŁ15 an hour, not too far behind but I certainly don't get that.
 
I don't think that there is many companies that are JIB anymore I don't think that I know of any in Northampton that are. The rates are mostly determined by supply and demand we've got a very good day rate and the company we sub-contract labour only to keeps on asking if we know any electricians and it seems that any good ones we know of are in work.
