Understanding The Apprentice Act: How Does It Impact Our Work Environment?

Dear Colleagues,

Please find attached herewith The Apprentice Act PPT for your ready reference.

Thank you.

Apprenticeship Quota Inquiry

What is the percentage of total employees an establishment can keep as apprentices as per government law?

Section 9 of the Apprentices Act

Section 9 of the Apprentices Act states that "Where an employer employs in his establishment five hundred or more workers, the basic training shall be imparted to the trade apprentices either in separate parts of the workshop building or in a separate building, which shall be set up by the employer himself. However, the appropriate Government may grant loans to the employer on easy terms, repayable by easy installments, to meet the cost of the land, construction, and equipment for such a separate building."

Are we supposed to consider only permanent workers in this count, or should temporary/casual workers also be included?

Hi, I need some information on the apprenticeship. Is it compulsory for all employers to have an apprenticeship? Is it applicable to all, or is it dependent on the size/number of employees in the organization? Is there any process or procedure to be followed in this regard?

Regards,
Venkatesh
