Wage rates range from $13.19 per hour for furniture handlers to $68.97 per hour for nuclear medicine technologists. All listed occupations receive fringe benefits including health and welfare at $5.92 per hour (or $236.80 weekly/$1,026.13 monthly), two weeks paid vacation after one year of service, and a minimum of eleven paid holidays annually.
