VW does what almost every other company does. They pay the lowest wage required to hire the quality of people they need. Because of the economy right now, workers are more abundant than jobs. Therefore, VW (and other companies) can get away with paying lower wages. This will (hopefully) change in the future. When the economy improves, VW will probably have to raise wages to compete for competent workers. Also, as the assembly line gets up and running at full speed, there is a very good chance that many of contract workers ($12/hr) will be hired as permanent workers at a higher rate with benefits.
As stated above, these are also starting pay rates. As workers demonstrate their skills and work ethic, pay usually increases. I suspect that (for now) all of the people who have found work at this plant are very happy to be employed. Why is it our job to complain about their pay rate?
Have Fun!
