The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 145, seeks to amend chapter 393 of the general statutes to establish a specific apprenticeship ratio for noncommercial projects. The bill introduces new legal language that mandates a ratio of one apprentice to one occupational licensee, ensuring that for every licensed professional working on a noncommercial project, there is an apprentice receiving training and experience.
This legislative change aims to enhance apprenticeship opportunities within the noncommercial sector, promoting workforce development and skill acquisition. The bill does not indicate any deletions from current law, focusing solely on the insertion of the new apprenticeship ratio requirement.
