I've been a landscape construction laborer for a long time, and the guys that I work with get paid exactly the same as me. $10 per hr. Most contractors pay all their laborers the same amount, unless they are highly skilled in which case they get more. I my experience, it is about skill and how hard you work not the color of your skin or if you have a U.S birth certificate. I work all day in the sun with these guys and they are some of the nicest most dedicated people I have ever known. And yes sometimes we do start at 6:00 am and go home at 7:pm. Giving up everything to come here for their children's sake. Now that's a true American.

You forgot to mention ILLEGAL again.

Certainly not enough!

These highly skilled, dedicated, and bright workers deserve so much better, and it's up to the public to ensure that working conditions plus pay greatly increases

They get paid pretty good because they are pounding away from sun up, to sun down....and that's the reason they are hired! and they don't make demands for higher wages, longer breaks, weekends and Holidays off.

It all depends on their position and what state they are working.

If they work over the table, it is because they have I.D.s that allow that, and they earn the standard wage. If they work under the table, and many prefer that, they earn what they would earn after they pay taxes.. most generally. They don't earn less.. they do take those jobs from Americans.

Yes.. they do get overtime.

Immigrant workers or ILLEGAL immigrant workers?

There's a difference. The illegals make less then those who are here legally.


PHOSHOâ„¢
probably less than your ergular america workers

The illegal alien construction workers make $25.00 an hour and up in my area.

ILLEGALS get paid off the books, then add free medical & schooling & welfare, so too much.
