This bill proposes to amend current statutes by adding a new section to title 13, chapter 9 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically section 13-912, which addresses probation. Under the new provisions, probationers on standard probation who are participating in a recognized apprenticeship program would be allowed to work at any hours of the day, provided they remain in good standing with the program. Additionally, these probationers would be permitted to travel within Arizona outside of their jurisdiction to fulfill their apprenticeship work requirements.

The bill does not alter any existing laws but introduces these new allowances specifically for probationers engaged in apprenticeship programs. This change aims to facilitate greater employment opportunities for individuals on probation, thereby supporting their rehabilitation and reintegration into the workforce.
