There are many opportunities in this field, as author and journalist Bill McKibben said in an interview with The New York Times, “If you know a young person who wants to do something that will help the world and At the same time, if you want to make a good living, go for it and become an electrician.”
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average annual salary for an electrician in 2021 was over US$60,000 (about 17.13 million Pakistani rupees), but some master electricians earn salaries in the six-figure range.
Sam Kalish, head of research for Rewiring America, says that over the next decade, there will be an average of 80,000 openings for electricians each year just to replace those who either retire or move on to different jobs.
