Bill > SB00145

This bill proposes to modify Chapter 393 of the general statutes to establish a specific apprenticeship staffing ratio for noncommercial projects. Specifically, the bill would require that for noncommercial projects, there must be one apprentice for every one occupational licensee. An occupational licensee is a professional who has been formally authorized or certified to work in a specific trade or profession by meeting predetermined qualifications. A noncommercial project typically refers to construction or work activities that are not conducted for commercial or profit-making purposes, such as community projects, government infrastructure, or non-profit organization facilities. By mandating a one-to-one apprentice to licensee ratio, the bill aims to provide more structured opportunities for apprentices to gain hands-on experience and training directly alongside licensed professionals in their field during noncommercial work projects.
