You'd be better off giving 4 weeks paid vacation and calling them construction technicians (construction labourer) or logistics assistants (warehouse labourer) with a base salary of $13 per hour.

That makes it a career with lifestyle flexibility instead of a job.
Money isn't number one because they are still living at home ... get their butts out in the real world and they will realize that time off don't pay the bills.

"Career with lifestyle flexibility" .... that's a good one
