One of the reasons many people applying to do sanitation worker's salary. First year salaries quite low, 33,746 DOLLARS (more than 750 million), but if doing more now can earn $ 47,371. After 5 and a half years, the average salary jumped to $ 88,616. This number is not small when compared with the average wage of the driver driving (77,991 USD) and teachers (68,151 USD) in New York.



According to the representative of the Department of sanitation in New York City, sanitation workers have more chance of being paid overtime: "When the city had great snow battle, we switch to work 12 hours a day, so they can get more money. Winter 2014 very harsh, the sanitation workers were paid the average wage up to $ 95,000 per year ".



Besides, this work also has many other incentives such as additional 10% of salary if the evening shift work, twice the salary for the day Sunday, had 25 days off after 6 years of work, does not limit the number of days off sick, good retirement mode and good health care regimen.



Noel Molina and Tony Sankar, 2 sanitation workers have salary of USD 100,000/year milestone rolled. Although hard work but both very satisfied because of the pay.



Noel Molina and Tony Sankar, garbage collectors work in New York for 10 years. According to CNN, Molina earn $ 112,000 in 2015 with work to drive junk, Sankar earn $ 100,000 when going by car to collect garbage bags. Molina left school after the 10th grade and worked in the waste management company, now here's your salary is still much higher than a university degree.


According to David Antonacci, owner of waste management company Crown Container, hard work and hard to find people who have good skills is the reason this job pay and increased sharply in recent years.

Across the country, garbage cleanup worker's salary has increased by 18%, 4% faster than the average for all other labor audience since the recession ended in June 2009.

David Antonacci said he received 50 applications when placing ads for jobs truck driver. Only four candidates have commercial driver but all 4 people are the problem on licence. So, Antonacci can not rent one.

Missing people is the main reason why Antonacci and others in the industry pushes the speed increase faster than the average rate in the country.

The same story also takes place in other parts of the country. Kathy Morris, head of a waste management facility in the area of Davenport in Iowa City, have also pushed up wages to retain employees.

"Not only the demand for workers increase that skill requirements, too," Morris, Director of the Committee for waste treatment of seeds, Scott said. The beach operator buried litter in your area to receive a salary of $ 50,000 per year.

Besides, it's not a pleasant job. Outside the stench, the worker must lift the Sankar and Molina as the heavy garbage bag into each night and take them to the gathered, where collectors a long way. They work from 55 to 60 hours in a week.

In addition, the term is also a barrier made many people refuse this work despite the request not high. The companies in the industry do not require a high school diploma. Driver download need a commercial driver's license.

According to figures of the Us Department of labor, the country has more than 50,000 environmental workers, more than in 2010. With the shortage of labour, some people can hope to earn a 6-figure salary as Monlina and Sankar. And a Labor Union will help them negotiate higher wages.

Molina are buying his first apartment, 4 bedrooms in the Freeport area in New York City. This man is divorced and living with 3 children. So, you want them to live in the suburbs of the city.

Meanwhile, Sankar, 48 years old, have to feed your baby 8/9-oldest have grown.

On a cold February night, a young man asked Sankar about work at the Crown, when he and his colleagues are on the way to work. 48 year old man for a young guy that the address and phone number of the company. When talking about salaries, this youth who expressed disbelief: "no, I don't believe it".
