Hi Hem Joshi,

Even though we have implemented an Apprenticeship program very recently, we don't have a policy in place. Currently, we are following the regulations set forth by the Act.

If you require a policy, please consider the following points:

- Applicability
- Positions / Trade
- Qualifications for each trade
- Stipend for each trade
- Mode of training
- Duration of training for each trade
- Consideration of employment post-training

Thank you.

You do not need an apprentice policy if you are taking apprentices under the Apprentice Act. You need to get in touch with the Apprentice Advisor of your area, and he will tell you how many apprentices you can/need to employ. He can help you appoint them, or you can hire on your own.

If you are not intending to follow that route, then you need to have apprentices defined in your Standing Orders and follow the terms and rules specified in it. In such cases, making a proper policy may be a good idea as a guide to the operations and HR teams on how to deal with them.

Dear Hem Joshi,

Please refer in detail to the Apprentices Act, 1961, and other amendments and rules made thereunder. Although the term 'Apprenticeship' is commonly applied to technical training apprentices, it can also be in other fields, including finance, services, and other utilities. Generally, apprenticeship training is for one year full-time. An establishment can engage apprentices in proportion to the overall strength of the establishment (2.5% to 25%), with reservations for SC/ST, BC/OBCs applying. A minor of 14 years can also be engaged with an agreement executed by their guardians. The cost of training, stipend at prescribed rates, etc., shall be borne by the employer. Before deciding on your plans, there are a few other points to consider:

Obligations of employers: Without prejudice to the other provisions of this Act, every employer shall have the following obligations in relation to an apprentice:
(a) to provide the apprentice with the training in his trade following the provisions of this Act and the rules made thereunder;
(b) if the employer is not qualified in the trade, to ensure that a person who possesses the prescribed qualifications is placed in charge of the apprentice's training;
(bb) to provide adequate instructional staff, possessing qualifications as prescribed, for imparting practical and theoretical training and facilities for the trade test of apprentices; and
(c) to fulfill obligations under the contract of apprenticeship.
