AI Summary

This bill aims to promote the use of apprenticeship programs in Massachusetts. It amends three existing laws to require that all trade contractors and subcontractors working on certain construction projects maintain or participate in an apprenticeship program registered with the state or the U.S. Department of Labor. Effective January 1, 2023, these apprenticeship programs must have graduated apprentices to journeyman status for at least three of the past five years to be eligible. Contractors and subcontractors must provide written certification of compliance and identify the apprenticeship program they use within 45 days of being awarded a contract.
