Journeymen

A journeyman is a skilled worker who has completed an apprenticeship and is qualified to work in a trade or craft. Unlike apprentices, who are still training, journeymen have gained the skills and experience necessary to perform their job independently but may not hold the highest status, like a master craftsman. This term is commonly used in trades such as carpentry, plumbing, and electrical work. Journeymen can work for employers or as independent contractors, and their expertise is crucial in maintaining quality standards within their respective fields.
