The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 145, aims to amend chapter 393 of the general statutes to establish a specific apprenticeship ratio for noncommercial projects. The bill stipulates that there should be a ratio of one apprentice to one occupational licensee, ensuring that for every licensed worker on a noncommercial project, there is an apprentice receiving training and experience.
This legislative change is intended to enhance apprenticeship opportunities and support workforce development in noncommercial sectors. The bill does not indicate any deletions from current law, focusing solely on the insertion of the new ratio requirement.
