Hello all,

Dont want to get to personal or anything but I am wondering what the hourly wage for meat cutters is out there in the world.  Also how about managers and assistant managers?  I am wondering what the difference is between countries.

thanks

When I worked for a company it was £8.78 per hour,then when I was contracting it was £15.00 ph.
Not sure if you can make sense of the £ to $ thing but there it is.

Thanks people, it seems that the scale is very large, sorry for you in NC. Here in Alberta the wages range from 16-20 or more depending on where you work. That is non-unionized of course.
