The pictures are reflected in Noel Molina and Tony Sankar. Molina seems to have earned 112,000 dollars (12.6 million yen) in 2015 and Sankar's 100 thousand dollars (about 11.2 million yen) in 2015.

Molina worked at the Crown Container of garbage collector for ten years since he dropped out of high school. When I started working, Molina's annual income is about $ 80,000 (about 9 million yen).

However, not all the garbage collection work is so high salary, and in the United States, the average annual income of garbage truck drivers is about 40,000 dollars (about 4.5 million yen). However, looking at the job category without limitation, the annual income of high school dropouts is about 24,000 dollars (about 2.7 million yen), and the average annual income of high school graduates is about 30,000 dollars (about 3.4 million yen) You can see that the driver of the garbage truck has a considerably higher annual income. "I earn more than people from college" is Sankar's word.


Also, not only the amount itself, but also the speed with which wages are getting higher, the other work types since 2009 have been up 14% a year on average, while the garbage collection work has greatly exceeded 18%.

For this reason, it is very difficult to locate technicians with appropriate skills, landfill operators, truck drivers, etc. for garbage collection work.


For example, when David Antonacci, President of Crown Container, issued a recruitment advertisement for garbage truck drivers, there seems to be 50 applications, but only 4 of them have a commercial car driver's license In addition, it was said that the penalty was attached to the driver's license for even 4 people. After all, Antonacci could not hire any one out of the 50 people who applied.

The above situation is not limited to the Crown Container, it happens even under the management of Kathy Morris who operates the garbage collection facility in Iowa state. "However, not just the demand for employees is increasing, A person with a certain skill is required, "Morris says.

Molina and Sankar carry a heavy garbage bag every night, sewing traffic jams while talking about safety and proceeding. The working hours per week is 55 to 60 hours, which is not an easy task at all. However, employment security is solid and individual pension system401kIt is also an excellent point of their work to be able to receive medical insurance.

"Our work is one of the few blue collar jobs not outsourced to China," Molina says.

The number of people who are engaged in garbage collection work has increased by 50,000 compared to the US in 2010. In the future, as the types of recycling increase, demand for workers is expected to further increase.
