When you are an apprentice, your salary and benefits come directly from TSMC. The workday and the work week for each type of apprentice is determined by TSMC as well. Apprentice wages start at a percentage of a journeyperson pay and the hourly wage varies based on technician role. Wage increases are dependent on time and performance. Apprentices receive wages that are in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local law related to minimum wage and work hours. Apprentices may be eligible for full time TSMC benefits from the date of hire or as stated in their workforce contract.
MS intensive program participants will be eligible for the benefits after they complete the MS program, pass probationary period as a fixed term contractor and converted as full time manufacturing specialist.
