How much does a Industrial electromechanic earn?

We're still collecting salary data for Industrial electromechanic. In the meantime, see what affects your pay in this role.

Where do these numbers come from?

This range comes straight from active vacancies on Werkvolk, not from a survey or an estimate. We only publish a range once at least five different employers state a salary, and we round the bounds, so you can never read off what one particular company pays. The range moves as new vacancies go live. In the app you see the exact salary per vacancy.

Pay by province

There are still too few employers per province for Industrial electromechanic to show a reliable range. We publish one as soon as at least five employers in the same province state a salary.

What determines your pay within this range?

As an industrial electromechanic, your diploma or experience, your knowledge of PLC controls, and your experience with specific machinery determine your pay.

Benefits beyond your salary

Temp agency or permanent: what's the difference?

Through a temp agency

  • Limited seniority build-up between assignments
  • Uncertainty over whether your contract gets renewed
  • Often less access to company benefits than permanent colleagues

Directly through Werkvolk

  • Your full salary goes to you, with no intermediary
  • You build seniority and benefits from day one
  • You know the salary and benefits that come with the job upfront
  • Direct communication with the employer, no middleman
