I worked on Vineyard in New Bedford and did the hiring for the first rope access team. They’ll top out around $55-$60/hr. The full timers on that project will bring home around $150k/ yr after OT.
I once almost took a job as a climber for a company that builds antennas and other tall structures. Their standard pay rate was $100 a day for support personnel and $150 for climbers. What stopped me from taking the job was realizing that typically your day didn't end until the work was complete, which could very often lead to 12 to 16 hour days. Granted this was in the '90s but even then it wasn't great pay
Yea totally agree, I'm a field engineer for a rail company, and I made 125k with almost no OT last year, and the whole time I was on dry land. I always thought these guys made way more. Fuck that.
How much time and energy would a climbing gym instructor have to put into learning all these things? I also did a little bit of tree cutting. Seems like the kind of job for me.
SPRAT cert is $5000 for a week of training. Then you build hours on it like a Merchant Marine Cred up to SPRAT 2 & 3. IRATA is the international version of this cert
Been in the industry since 2005.
Seen everything from 18-80/hr depending on outfit
Then there's the $150/per diem x 7 days a week for however long the job is, a gas/expense card, a company truck, bennies and a flight home every 6 weeks.
But.. there are people doing this for 18/hr which is outrageous, and definitely something to comment on. Why do you think it's an argument and not an exclamation at the discovery? It's objectively insane for anyone to do that job for so little pay!
Damn. That is Miles better than a job that I almost took as a climber for a company that built radio antennas and other aerial installations although at the time they did not do windmills and windmills weren't very predominant. At the time the rate of pay was $150 a day for climbers and $100 a day for support personnel. Standard benefits and no remote work over 4 hours drive in a company vehicle which had to be returned at the end of the day. So worst case scenario a climber could have to drive to the office get a truck drive 4 hours to a job spend 12 to 16 hours on the job only to have to drive back to the office to drop off the truck and get their personal vehicle. I think you can see why I didn't take the job
Have a friend and a cousin that do this. Usually about $120k a year. Although it wasn't in the sea like this. I'd assume $150k-$200k for something like that
Edit: it's a lot of traveling though. Didn't see my friend but twice a year. Haven't seen my cousin in 2 years.
I make that 120k working as a unionized maintenance worker at a paper mill with no traveling involved. Not trying to spread hate - just spreading knowledge of salaries.
international paper will hire you into maintenance with VERY little experience. starting out at nearly $30 an hour where I am. there are mills spaced out across the states.

I’m trained as a rescue rigger. Are these guys that came in through the union and worked up to it, or did they come with training/certifications from another rigging related job?
I can answer this!
I’m an electrician affiliated with the IBEW. The local union I’m a member of in my area offers classes and certifications for electricians that would like to pursue other related fields that are outside the scope of conventional electrical work in say, typical residential and commercial settings. Like you can take classes for how to install solar panels and EV chargers, or how to work on fiber optic cables.
In the case of wind mills, we have what’s called a GWO Certification (Global Wind Organization). It’s a week long course on various aspects of working in a wind turbine, like climbing the inside of the tower, rescue situations, water safety training, and other aspects of that line of work. We also have a HUET (Helicopter Underwater Escape Training) where we practice how to evacuate a helicopter in the event that we’re flying over water and have to ditch the chopper for whatever reason.
The union will pay for the classes, effectively making it tuition free. That way it takes the financial burden off of the workers that want to further their education, and the union is happy because now they have a pool of multi-talented workers that construction companies and contractors can poach for their skills. It’s a pretty good system.
Because of my certifications, I was able to work on the South Fork Wind Project off the shores of Montauk in Long Island, NY.
Offshore wind projects are kind of at a standstill at this time in the NYC metro area. Hopefully as more wind farms get approved and ready for construction, I can work on them again. I had a great time at South Fork Wind, and I made some really good money there.
For now, I’m back to doing residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work. I consider it a temporary thing while I wait for the wind farms to get started again.
Pretty sure Ive seen they make good money in the US. Isn’t it like $200k+? Same people who work on wind turbines who work on large antennas and other high up stuff.
Not sure how 12 hour days on-site consistently is even feasible for working on wind turbines.
One of the largest wind turbine companies offers 22 to 34 an hour for technicians. Not as much as a sheet metal worker, plumber, or electrician in a good union. Compared to the union I am joining, the benefits were not as robust either. But, it's a good skill to have under your belt for creating work in seasons that lack hours.
That’s crazy they only make 22-34 an hour. My husband is a sheet metal fabricator and makes 28-42 an hour depending on OT and other things. Scale pay for them is anywhere from 52-75 an hour depending on where the job is. He’s not in a union though.
I'm a machine builder in the automation industry. I act as a project manager, plumber, electrician, machinist, and fabricator. A lot of times, I have to design the fix, bring it into being, and install it. I'm only making $22/hr. I have to work 50 hour weeks, but I've done as high as 119hr weeks during a particularly grueling on-site install. Your husband should make more, these guys should make more, and I should make more.
My husband has to design the fix, bring it into being, and install it too! It sounds like if either of you guys left your positions, they’d have to hire at least 4-5 other people to do your job. By that logic, you should be paid 4-5x more and id completely agree with that
first picture: oh they work on wind turbines
second picture: Wait there off-shore?
third picture: oh in the middle of the ocean yeah these guys could be making 10 figures its not enough
$300-400 a day when I set up the swing stage scaffolding from 2006-2009. 7 days a week pay whether you worked that day or if you had a day off due to weather when I was on a contract. No pay in between contracts. Some days I would climb 5-6 times or spend 14 hours in the windmill hub. Other days we could have a week off paid due to too much wind or ice. I worked windmill sites all over the states and Canada. It’s relatively easy to get hired on. I did on the job training and was training others within a few months. There are other jobs where you can train and work in one specific wind farm location each day, those guys got somewhere in the 20-30 an hour range for servicing the windmills. Engineers worked on the scaffolding rigs I set up were paid a bit better than that. I got my friends jobs as well and we traveled together, made it fun.
Google swing stage scaffolding jobs in your area if you’re interested. Send applications to multiple companies and find one that’s a good fit for you pay/travel/location/workload wise.
I’ve been looking into it. I haven’t read through the information they sent me yet. On paper it says they start around $80k. I’m assuming this guy in the picture makes more though. Please correct if I’m wrong. It looks like it’s at least exciting. Working for real estate attorneys is not. lol.
Funny, I thought this was r/rope for a second.
This job is part of an umbrella of work called rope access. It pays fairly well, and safety is taken very very seriously.
This looks like so much fun!!!!!!! Serious request, if anyone know how to apply or knows someone with no experience in this but lots of construction and warehouse experience thats willing to take on a greenhorn, let me know
I'm the UK you need to do an Irata course, in the UK I think your equivalent is Sprat. Then build some hours up in your log book on buildings, window cleaning ect. Then do your turbine ticket and go hunting. It's easy to get into rope access if you're driven and a team player
I can't ever not think about the poor souls who got stuck when one of these mfs caught fire. Idk how practical a base jumping parachute would be but I wouldn't be up there without one
Used to work offshore as a sand blaster/painter for SHELL. Was getting paid 26hr and 100 dollars per diem when we arrived to the port. 2weeks on and one week off, good o days.
Yes, In October 2013 in [The Netherlands](https://www.wind-watch.org/news/2013/10/30/dead-in-fire-wind-turbine-ooltgensplaat/). There were four techs working on it and two managed to escape/evacuate, the two that didn't make were both young guys, 19 and 21. Hauntingly there were photos of [them trapped](https://www.historyen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/oyun-turleri-17.jpg).
60 grand scarily now gets you a urine soaked subway seat and a rape and / or robbery every 3 - 5 yrs. Gotta love 2024. A used condom probably goes for 2 - 3 hundred, I wouldn't know.
I live in southern California and there are a decent amount of windmills in the desert. I have a friend that after 3 years or so is making $150k on average. If the job has prevailing wage then he pulls in a bit more or bumps up his yearly average. He said the team supervisor makes around $250k.
It's called Rope Access, and a Lv. 3 supervisor can make upwards of 175k a year. But it involves a ton of overtime (70 plus hours a week) and constant travel.
Uck… everytime I see someone working on a turbine, I think about this video of two guys getting trapped on top of one after a fire broke out. It was either burn to death or jump… they decided to jump. That one lives rent free in my head.
Replaced a guy at a youth training facility who was leaving to train up on this job. From being on, I guess, about 22k, he pulled up 6 months later in a RS6.
A couple of years ago a fire broke out on top of a turbine. The guys working on it were [trapped](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fx9LUXIXsAEkF-9.jpg) and had nowhere to go (this turbine was on land, not on water). Both died... One fell to his death, the other one was burned alive...
And then there's also [this guy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9v4tee7zD8)...
I worked on Vineyard in New Bedford and did the hiring for the first rope access team. They’ll top out around $55-$60/hr. The full timers on that project will bring home around $150k/ yr after OT.
That is not enough in my opinion.
How much do skyscraper climbing youtubers make?
Too much.
10 m/s²
9.81
I'm don't see the difference if you fall twenty meters. Why not round it if tou will be reduced to two dimensions?
π^2
I mean people do it for free as a hobby.
People sport climb on dynamic ropes for free as a hobby. Not a lot of people welding 350' above the ground on static rope for free as a hobby...
Mostly make a mess on the floor
It's not the fall but the sudden stop...
I do this job and I agree. We do tend to work rotations of 2 weeks on 2 weeks off tho, so not bad for only working half of the year
“work rotations” ha fan joke
You need a pay raise! I don't want to lie, it looks fun though.
In what world does that look fun??
Yeah I have a friend who got his position because the guy he replaced fell to his death.
Aw RIP dude. That's sad.
I once almost took a job as a climber for a company that builds antennas and other tall structures. Their standard pay rate was $100 a day for support personnel and $150 for climbers. What stopped me from taking the job was realizing that typically your day didn't end until the work was complete, which could very often lead to 12 to 16 hour days. Granted this was in the '90s but even then it wasn't great pay
Lol. Fuck that. What a rip off.
Ooh hell no!! Let me guess, "Now WoN waNtz too Werk?"
I was making $100 a day as a service bartender at a decent restaurant in the late 90s. That money is not worth it to risk your life
Agreed. There's remote work that pays that and more.
Extremely safe believe it or not. Still scary AF!!
Yeah the risk of instant death is immeasurable. Up those men pay sheesh.
Yea totally agree, I'm a field engineer for a rail company, and I made 125k with almost no OT last year, and the whole time I was on dry land. I always thought these guys made way more. Fuck that.
What's the qualifications to have that job? I imagine not anyone can just apply to do something like this.
IRATA or SPRAT cert, GWO BST, ART, BTT and Sea Survival, OSHA 10 or 30
That’s a lot of letters. I’m assuming one of them stands for “Not paralyzed with fear when high up on stuff”?
SPRAT is the sound you make when you fall.
Only in Asia...
Very dishonobru joke.
*laughs in LiveLeak trauma giggles*
Beat me to it!
I'm tired...so it had me laughing way too hard.
the doctor said both your arms are healed now sweaty
Shouldn't have made me laugh as much as it did.
Holy smokes, I think this just blew my eyebrows off.
Nah on an offshore rig it's more like SPRASH
This made me laugh way to hard
It's not the falling that makes the sound. It's the impact with the ground
What did you just say to us?
How much time and energy would a climbing gym instructor have to put into learning all these things? I also did a little bit of tree cutting. Seems like the kind of job for me.
>What's the qualifications to have that job? Balls. Big balls.
And maybe a touch of crazy. 🤪
A weeks training to get your Irata ticket. That lets you work on buildings, bridges ect. It's extra tickets to work on turbines
SPRAT cert is $5000 for a week of training. Then you build hours on it like a Merchant Marine Cred up to SPRAT 2 & 3. IRATA is the international version of this cert
Thanks for the info, I always wondered if they were properly compensated. I think these guys deserve more.

Been in the industry since 2005. Seen everything from 18-80/hr depending on outfit Then there's the $150/per diem x 7 days a week for however long the job is, a gas/expense card, a company truck, bennies and a flight home every 6 weeks.
LMAO 18 an hour to do this youre on meth my friend
Did you see the other end of the range, the $80 per hour part??
When someone wants to argue with you, no matter what you say, he will always listen/read what he needs to start the argument
But.. there are people doing this for 18/hr which is outrageous, and definitely something to comment on. Why do you think it's an argument and not an exclamation at the discovery? It's objectively insane for anyone to do that job for so little pay!
Because he said "Seen everything from 18-80/hr *depending on outfit* " So I guess that more risky is the job the more they are paid
And experience. Although I'd probably argue that the less experienced in this case should probably be paid even more.
That's part of the package for the 18/hr workers. Gotta motivate them somehow.
Damn. That is Miles better than a job that I almost took as a climber for a company that built radio antennas and other aerial installations although at the time they did not do windmills and windmills weren't very predominant.

All the stuff I should have learned younger. I’m HUET certified, that is a lot of fun.
I think I saw a job posting once. It was only like $25CAD and you had to live on site while working 12 hour days
Yeah I wanted to be a wind tech. When I looked up jobs in my area it was barely above minimum wage.
Fugg Dat!

I used to work on wind turbines, it’s exciting for about the first two weeks and then it’s repetitive, awful work. I started at $16 an hour.
If I had to guess, I'd say at least minimum wage
You get high pay for what you know, the job is dangerous, or both. That job is both.
They get these guys from home depot, pile them into the back of a pick up truck.
Less than they deserve.

I'm the UK you need to do an Irata course, in the UK I think your equivalent is Sprat. Then build some hours up in your log book on buildings, window cleaning ect. Then do your turbine ticket and go hunting. It's easy to get into rope access if you're driven and a team player

I can't ever not think about the poor souls who got stuck when one of these mfs caught fire. Idk how practical a base jumping parachute would be but I wouldn't be up there without one
Not. Enough.
Used to work offshore as a sand blaster/painter for SHELL. Was getting paid 26hr and 100 dollars per diem when we arrived to the port. 2weeks on and one week off, good o days.
Wasn't there some fire accident that involved 2 men getting stuck on the top of one of them in land?
Yes, In October 2013 in [The Netherlands](https://www.wind-watch.org/news/2013/10/30/dead-in-fire-wind-turbine-ooltgensplaat/). There were four techs working on it and two managed to escape/evacuate, the two that didn't make were both young guys, 19 and 21.

I worked for global wind as an electrical turbine team lead and I was on £22hr on a zero hour contract. Absolute wank pay for such a high risk job
Been in the industry for 5 years. Pull in about 150k a year. Sometimes it's worth it, sometimes not
i think around 60 grand but it should be more considering the risks they take
60 grand scarily now gets you a urine soaked subway seat and a rape and / or robbery every 3 - 5 yrs. Gotta love 2024. A used condom probably goes for 2 - 3 hundred, I wouldn't know.
It’s one banana… what could it cost? $10?
they get paid pretty well, like $100k/yr, but you have to travel a lot
Not fucking enough
I like the Anderson double hung windows they put in the side.
Not to mention the sharks swarming around these rigs. I would wish the fall would kill me first.
In NZ,its around $42hr $87k yr. For a 40 hr week.but that is land based,so home every night
They get to take home any birds they find.
At least the new ones have elevators in them The ladders are held on by magnets btw Made 25$ per hour construction as a new guy
More than stacking shelves but less than playing football
Wait...that's a boat on stilts?
I am not a big fan of this.
20$ for the day and then if they don’t fall it’s 50$
I bet it’s a pretty high amount.

They’re not in the union, so probably will leave your dick in your hand at the end of the day.

not enough, whatever it is
A couple of years ago a fire broke out on top of a turbine. The guys working on it were [trapped](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fx9LUXIXsAEkF-9.jpg) and had nowhere to go (this turbine was on land, not on water). Both died... One fell to his death, the other one was burned alive... And then there's also [this guy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9v4tee7zD8)...
My answer depends on if they shut off the turbine before they start or not.
Not enough, technicians have died in fires on these rigs.
You will be surprised to know how much their CEO makes.

Does anyone know if they have quarters up there? Like emergency bunks and stuff?
Thats an awful lot stuff going on there if thats just maintenance.
It'a their tenet.
I didn't even notice people in the first image
I was making 120k my 4th year in retail banking this can’t be real lol
Here in Indiana, last I saw a job posting for a windmill technician (granted its entry level) was $19 Still not doing it.
Did nobody notice the cutest smile, I would definitely work there for free just for this reason
Well, hoping that they really paid enough for that job
