We do not hold a published SMART Local 58 wage sheet, so we don't quote a rate for this local. The hall ((315) 472-4411) can give you the current collective bargaining agreement rate for Syracuse, NY.
One negotiated scale covers every sheet metal workers classification in the local's jurisdiction: apprentices are paid a set share of the journeyman rate, journeymen are paid full scale, and foremen and general foremen are paid a premium over it. The scale is set by the collective bargaining agreement between the local and its signatory contractors and moves on the contract's anniversary date, usually with the increase split between the base wage and the benefit package.
Apprentices move up in six-month or yearly periods, generally starting near 45% of journeyman scale and stepping up to full scale on turning out. We do not hold a published SMART Local 58 wage sheet, so we can't put dollar figures on each step — the training center or the hall ((315) 472-4411) can give you the current schedule.
Sheet Metal Workers apprenticeships generally run four to five years, combining roughly 8,000–10,000 hours of paid on-the-job training with several hundred classroom hours a year. Apprentices earn a wage the whole time and turn out at full journeyman scale once the hour and classroom requirements are met. Confirm the program length with the local's JATC.
Most people join one of two ways: apply to the apprenticeship through the local's Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee during an open intake window, or, if you already hold sheet metal workers experience, ask the hall about organizing in or testing for journeyman status. Applications usually need proof of age (18+), the legal right to work in the U.S., a high school diploma or GED, an aptitude test, an interview and a drug screen. Contact the Syracuse, NY hall at (315) 472-4411 for the current intake dates — Gulfstream does not process apprenticeship or membership applications.
