What does a Construction Laborer earn?
On average, construction laborers earn around $49,280 per year in the U.S. Construction laborers perform a wide variety of tasks, such as building roads and bridges, demolition, pouring concrete, and grading land. They may also assist other skilled trades professionals with more technical tasks, such as plumbing, electrical work and carpentry. Construction laborers typically work onsite at construction sites, although they may also work in offices or warehouses on occasion.
How to earn more as a Construction Laborer
To become a Construction Laborer, you will need training to gain an understanding of the tools and techniques used. In most cases, on-the-job experience is necessary to get accepted for entry-level construction positions. You may need to complete a recognised apprenticeship or gain industry qualifications to gain better-paid jobs. You could move up to a supervisory role or move into a specialised area like masonry, plumbing or steelwork fabrication. It is also possible to become self-employed and offer your construction services to a range of clients.
