Honda Apprenticeship- pay?

[Blunet600]

hi - just curious if anyone knows what the yearly, or hourly rate of pay is for an apprentice? Im not too phased as i am going to be doing it because i really want to learn about the bike mechanics, but i am curious.

[hmmmnz]

if its like any other apprenticeship, it'll be minimum wage or below.
basically a little more than the doll.
have fun. its 3 years of taking shit working long hours for crap money, but im glad im a tradesman, as i can go anywhere in the world and have a job paying good money in just a couple of days

I'm starting an apprenticeship in September on £12k/year for the first 30weeks, then to £17k until 72weeks (I think) then £22k/year for the final stretch and the end of the 2 years. So it's not always minimum wage. However, it could be as low as £4.65 an hour (could be £4.xx something else, but it starts with £4) up until the age of 21. Normal minimum wage laws are different for apprenticeships if you are under 21. I can't remember the law exactly, but I found it on the interweb somewhere when I was looking.

There is a minimum wage for 18 and over which is about £4.50 and then its raised at 21 to about £5.60, If you're under 18 expect to be paid whatever the hell they like really! My mates where on £3.30 an hour doing same as me but because I was older was earning more

im in the 2nd year of my apprentiship and my weekly wage works out to £2.92 an hour, i also have a pub job on minimum wage which helps pay for things i want.

at the end of the day ive got 2 more years of crap money but after that 32k a year basic isnt bad. and thats if i stay where i am now, there other places round here offering 34-36k basic.

When i was in my apprenticeship i started on 1.35 an hour.

Then got a payrise to 3.25 an hour in the 2nd year...

IIRC The minimum wage doesnt count for apprenticeships, as the company has to pay to send you to college, accomodation when there, everything like that. Which doesnt come cheap.

I am in my 2nd year of my apprenticeship (mechanical engineering - basically a machinist) and i am on £6 an hour at the moment but come september i will be on closer to £10!!!

For the first 12 months of your apprenticeship you don't have a minimum wage (so they could pay you 18p an hour if they wanted to) but after the 12 month period, you DO have a minimum wage. I can't remember exactly what it is but i think it is about £3.60 or something crap like that.

I'll try and find the the link that explains it all for you.
