Electrical power-line installer and repairer wages by bargaining status in 2019

OCTOBER 01, 2020

Households and businesses rely on the electric power system to keep the lights on, to keep us cool in summer and warm in winter, and to run machinery, equipment, and appliances. Electrical power-line installers keep the system running reliably. In the United States, average hourly wages for union electrical power-line installers and repairers were $40.02 in 2019. That compares with an average of $26.67 for nonunion electrical power-line installers and repairers.
