[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 485460, member: 17152"] As Deke said I’m referring to paid employment rates, which subbies have to accept if going via an agency or even sometimes direct. I’m always infuriated when someone offers me a job at the going rate which is referenced from the JIB rates and they think their doing me a favour, as it no where near covers my overheads and pay rate that I’d get as self employed. I will also say this for clarification Raps, I am paid substantially more than any rate that the JIB and that that you have referred as I have indeed specialised! I just think that for all that an electrician has to go through in terms of training and hoops, the pay rates suggested are not reflective of this given what other trades are offered for less qualification and hassle. As I say can’t see where this happens in any other vocation. ?? [/QUOTE]
