What is the average line rate per hour or per 8 hour shift? - mel


Posted: Apr 21, 2011

Hi:
I am make incentive based on minutes, but I work on a system that lets me check how many lines and minutes I have typed in a day also.

Just in case I have to get another job based on lines, I wanted to know what is the average amount of lines per hour or per 8 hour shift.

Thanks for the advice in advance.

My employers requires 1200 lines per 8 hour shift. .so you can figure that amount. That is the minimum.. the more we do, the morer we get paid line wise. I usually type about 180 to 225 an hour. Depends on doc and depends on my hands LOL. Hope that helps.

Average Per Hour With 0.75 Or 0.375 Versus $12.00 Per Hour
Mar 31, 2014

My transcription job was always paid by the hour. I was laid off and they recently offered me a temp position with them making $12.00 an hour.  I was also offered a positon that pays 7.5 and 3.5 cpl.  The $12.00 is employee status for a small local company I worked for over 9 years.  The other is an IC position.  Do you think I would make more with the $12.00 an hour or the per line production rate?  I have never done production by line work so I'm not sur ...
