An hourly rate is only part of the decision. Before accepting a traveling welding assignment, confirm the expected work schedule, overtime terms, project duration, per diem eligibility and days paid, lodging arrangements, and any travel reimbursement. Ask the employer to clarify anything the posting leaves out.
Per diem and travel arrangements vary by job. Do not assume every opening has the same benefits or that a posted work schedule guarantees those hours.
