Percent Goal. For each Subcontractor, and for each Prime Contractor directly employing workers to perform Covered Work, in each Trade at least 20% of all Covered Work hours shall be performed by apprentices in a BOLI-registered or BOLI-recognized program. This goal applies only to Subcontractors performing at least $100,000 of Covered Work and 300 hours of construction labor on a project, and to Prime Contractors directly employing workers to perform at least $100,000 of Covered Work and 300 hours of construction labor on a project. If a first tier Subcontractor provides only supervision, contract management, or materials, and subcontracts a portion of its work to a second tier Subcontractor, the 20% apprenticeship utilization goal shall apply to the second tier Subcontractor, even if the resulting second tier subcontract does not meet the threshold requirements described above, as long as the second tier Subcontractor provides labor hours on the project job site. Work of a prime or first tier Subcontractor shall not be divided into smaller subcontracts for the purpose of avoiding the apprentice utilization requirements.
