HP salary structure (formerly job posting)



There are two ways to improve salaries and increase the perceived value of

HPs by employers:



1)  Collective bargaining.  High wage industries tend to be heavily

unionized. This is not a coincidence. Management will always pay as little

as they can get away with.  Before teachers organized, salaries were just

above the poverty level.  Now, in heavily unionized states like NY, teaching

salaries -even starting salaries - are pretty good.



2) Regulation.  If NRC and Agreement states required licensees to have fully

trained HPs as RSOs, demand would soar and salaries would follow. 





Choose your poison.
