Common use of PRE-APPRENTICE Clause in Contracts

PRE-APPRENTICE. The Employer can hire and utilize the services of pre-apprentices. To do so, the pre- apprentice must first be registered with the Union before going to the job site; and it is agreed that the employment of the pre- apprentice may not extend beyond one hundred twenty (120) working days or nine hundred sixty hours (960) whichever is reached first from registration. During the foregoing one hundred twenty (120) working days or nine hundred sixty hours (960) whichever is reached first, the Employer will compensate the pre-apprentice at a minimum of 50% of the base journeyman rate plus contribute full hourly vacation pay. At the conclusion of the hundred twenty (120) working days or nine hundred sixty hours (960) whichever is reached first, the Employer will pay full fringe benefits and enroll the individual in the Apprentice Program. The Employer may hire as many as one (1) new pre- apprentice for every three (3) journeymen working and one registered apprentice, one hundred forty (140) hours per month based upon previous month’s fringe benefit report. Employers doing schools or residential work may apply for a variance of the 1 to 4 pre-apprentice ratio with the Business Manager pre-approval. Pre-apprentices will be required to attend school once per month. Employers delinquent more than thirty (30) days on their fringe benefits do not qualify for pre-apprentices. This Section 9 will not be applied to NMA, PLA, GPA and/or Labor Harmony Jobs.
