What u see on the check is not all the cost of labor. I'm my industry, our union guys make around $25/hr on their check, and we pay another $11+ in benefits. But we also have another 28% in labor burden, which is FUTA/SUTA, SS & Medicare, workers comp, liability insurance, ect.

So every dollar u see we pay another $0.28 for burden. This is commercial side, industrial side I would imagine would be higher.




Exactly, which is why there is no way in hell a union worker is any cheaper than a contractor
