AI Summary

This bill removes the requirement for public work contractors to participate in registered apprenticeship programs, and instead sets new apprenticeship standards for prevailing wage projects. Specifically, it removes the provisions that required contractors to participate in registered apprenticeship programs and have their programs certified as meeting certain requirements. Instead, the bill requires contractors who participate in apprenticeship programs to ensure that the programs meet industry standards for on-the-job training hours and related instruction, as established by the U.S. Department of Labor. The bill also makes other changes to the definitions and enforcement provisions related to the New Jersey Prevailing Wage Act.
