That compensation can have a wide range as well... I've known union staff to receive as little as $10 per day for walking the line when on the other end of the field, when I did steel work, one of the major steel suppliers (I think it was Algoma, but don't quote me on that as it's been a long time) threatened with a strike and it was noted that they had a large enough strike fund to pay their members full wages for approximately 10 years.
