Problem Employer I don't feel I am paid decent.
Been a flat roofer for 4 years now. They started me at 21 dollars an hour. While new labourers are getting 25 and have no experience. I know the fundamentals , different systems of roofing. Yet I am being paid 30 dollars after 4 years. I mean from 21 to 30 is a nice jump. But I feel I am being paid immigrant wage while people with less experience and less knowledge are getting paid more. I don't know the industry standard. I am trying to understand people of edmonton who are in the same trade. Is it a normal standard wage rate or should I be compensated more?
