The role of a tournament referee differs widely from one Association to another and from one tournament to another. At one extreme he or she is involved in every part of the organisation, from drafting the entry form to arranging the finals. At the other extreme, the referee appears only on the day of the tournament solely to decide any question of rule interpretation.
In competition table tennis, there is no such thing as "rules of tournament referee". However, you can go to the usatt.org website and research official rules of table tennis.

Well, if by 'referee' you don't really mean 'line umpire' or 'chair umpire', then I would say around 10k for the tournament depending on the level (there are deputy referees and then the head/tournament referee). line umpires make in the mid-100's range per day. For chair umpires, it depends on what level they are.
In a tournament, there are five referees. There are four flag referees and one main referee. The flag referees raise the flag with the color of the opponent scoring a point. The final decision is made by the main referee.
Officials are all volunteers who give up their time to officiate at table tennis events. The top official is the Tournament Referee. The role of a tournament referee differs widely from one Association to another and from one tournament to another. For each match there is an umpire, whose primary duty is to decide the result of each rally. For international competitions an assistant umpire is appointed and he takes over or shares some of the umpire's duties.
Only 1 official at a table: Generally, if either of the two players in Table Tennis request a referee, then the non-requesting player must accept a referee -- AND, only 1 "official" (a referee) is needed. When the two players of a game ARE able to agree on their disputes, then no "official" (i.e. a referee) is needed. A referee, IF needed by any player, is appointed by the Tournament Director; and, in many cases, the Tournament Director/organizer is also the self-appointed referee -- at least in the case of smaller community tournaments. Large tournaments almost always have 1 or more referees available; AND, highly-rated(i.e. high level) tournament players almost always have a referee at their table -- I suspect the reason high-rated players usually have a referee is: Higher-rated players apparently concentrate much more heavily on the fine points of the game AND CAN THEREFORE be easily distracted from their game by trying to concentrate/remember game scores (even though it's only to 11 points); ALSO, I think the players like the re-assurance that a second pair of eyes (i.e. referee) is trying to help determine a correct outcome of any minor mis-hits, table-edge/net hits, etc. For example, if a ball comes very-close to the table edge, it's not always easy to determine if it grazed the edge; so it's good to have a referee help decide. 2006Nov13--Joe Gervais (id = JoeG314) -- TT player in Saint Paul, Minnesota [Google: Joe G TT info]

The top official is the Tournament Referee. The role of a tournament referee differs widely from one Association to another and from one tournament to another. At one extreme he or she is involved in every part of the organisation, from drafting the entry form to arranging the finals. At the other extreme, the referee appears only on the day of the tournament solely to decide any question of rule interpretation. For each match there is an umpire, whose primary duty is to decide the result of each rally. He is also required to exercise judgment in applying some laws and regulations, such as deciding whether a rally should be a let because a player's service or return may have been affected by circumstances outside the player's control, or whether a player's behaviour is acceptable. An assistant umpire is solely responsible for decisions on edge balls at the side of the table nearest to him, and he has the same power as the umpire to decide the legality of a player's service action, whether a player obstructs the ball and some of the conditions for a let.
The possessive form of the noun referee is referee's.Example: The referee's decision was final.
An assist referee should know all about football. He should know as much as the referee so that if the referee is blinded or very far away the assistanat referee could give decession after consulting with the referee.
The top official is the Tournament Referee. It is also usual to appoint one or more deputy referees. For each match there is an umpire. For international competitions an assistant umpire is also used.
