A concreter in Pakistan earns about 281,500 PKR a year. That's 71% below the national average of 983,100 PKR.

Pay ranges widely from country to country and from role to role. The lowest reported salaries in Pakistan sit around 148,300 PKR a year, while the very top stretches to 430,000 PKR. Everything on this page is in Pakistani rupee (PKR, symbol ₨), which lets you compare numbers like-for-like without worrying about exchange rates.

The numbers here are pulled together from official government wage data, large independent salary surveys, and aggregated worker-reported pay. Most reported salaries include the benefits that are common in Pakistan, such as housing or transport allowances, which is worth keeping in mind if you're comparing against a country where those are usually paid on top.

A typical concreter working in Pakistan brings home around 23,458 PKR a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 148,300 PKR, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 430,000 PKR for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.

The wide gap between low end and top end reflects how much pay can vary inside the same job title. A junior concreter working at a small local employer earns very different money from a senior at a multinational. Skills, employer, city and years in the seat all push the number around.


How concreter pay ranges in Pakistan

A good way to think about salary in Pakistan is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all concreters in Pakistan earn less than 271,300 PKR a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".

Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 187,300 PKR (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 335,800 PKR (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of concreters sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 148,300 PKR. The highest stretch to 430,000 PKR, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.

Concreter pay by experience in Pakistan

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a concreter in Pakistan, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical concreter salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    168,100 PKR
  • 2-5 Years
    +32% from previous
    221,500 PKR
  • 5-10 Years
    +30% from previous
    288,700 PKR
  • 10-15 Years
    +22% from previous
    352,000 PKR
  • 15-20 Years
    +9% from previous
    382,600 PKR
  • 20+ Years
    +5% from previous
    403,100 PKR

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 0 - 2 Years to 2 - 5 Years, where pay rises by about 32%. That is the point at which a concreter typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.


Concreter pay by education in Pakistan

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving concreter pay in Pakistan. Higher qualifications consistently pull higher salaries, but the size of the gap tends to be smallest at junior levels and widens as people move up. Two people in the same role with the same years of experience but different degrees can end up earning very different money once they reach mid-career.

Below is the average concreter salary in Pakistan broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

  • High School
    208,600 PKR
  • Certificate or Diploma

    352,000 PKR

Concreter gender pay gap in Pakistan

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Pakistan is no exception. Male concreters in Pakistan earn an average of 301,700 PKR a year, while female concreters earn around 267,100 PKR. That works out to a 13% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.

Pay raises for a concreter in Pakistan

Most countries hand out at least some kind of pay raise every year, typically when an employee's contract is reviewed or as a cost-of-living adjustment to keep wages roughly in step with inflation. The rhythm and size of those raises varies hugely between industries.

A typical worker doing this role in Pakistan sees a raise of about 8% every 20 months, which works out to roughly 5% on an annual basis. That figure is the typical underlying rate; in years where inflation runs high you can usually expect a bit more, and in flat-economy years a bit less.

Across all jobs in Pakistan, the national average raise is around 8% every 19 months.

Concreter bonus rates in Pakistan

Bonuses are the other half of total compensation, and they vary a lot between jobs and industries. Some roles are paid almost entirely in base salary; others lean heavily on bonus structures tied to revenue, project completion or company performance. Whether a job pays a bonus, how big it is, and how often it lands all factor into whether the headline salary is actually a good offer.

23%

23% of concreters in Pakistan reported a bonus of some kind in the past twelve months. That makes a concreter a low-bonus role overall, which is useful context when you're weighing up a job offer where the base is below market.

Among those who did receive a bonus, the size of the payment varied substantially. Reported bonuses ranged from 1% to 3% of base salary. The remaining 77% of concreters reported no bonus at all over the same period.
