Hiring Apprentices. A Contractor may meet part of the Construction Workforce Goal by hiring apprentices. However, hiring an apprentice does not satisfy or waive the trainee hiring obligation, if any, for design professionals. Unless otherwise permitted by law, apprentices must be trained pursuant to training programs approved by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or the California Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Apprenticeship Standards. Credit towards compliance will only be given for paid apprentices actually working on the project. No credit is available for apprentices while receiving class room training. Under no circumstances shall the ratio of apprentices to journeymen in a particular trade or craft exceed 1:5.
