(e) Only appre��tices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that havc bcen approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written apprentice agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The em- ployment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following: (1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice a�reements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. ' Page 7 Cal Lab Code � 1777.5 � I (d) When the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivi- ��I sion, in performing any of the work under the contract, einploys workers in any apprenticeable craft or trlde, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section aud may ' apply lo any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site oF � the public work for a certificatc approvin�? the contractor under the apprenticcship standards for the � employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of � the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Ad- ministrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the con- tractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship pro�ram's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in or- der to include additional public works contracts under that program. "Apprenticeable craft or trade," ' as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in ac- cordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, "contractor" indudes any subcontractor under a contractor who performs any public I works not excluded by subdivision (o). ' (e) Prior to commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit con- tract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the I site of the public work. The information submitted shall include an estimate ofjourneyman hours to ' be performed undcr the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the ap- � proximate dates the apprentices would bc employed. A copy of this information shall also be sub- i mitted to the awarding body if requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding I work on the contract, each conh�actor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if re- quested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of thc joumeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The ap- prenticeship programs shall retain this inForniation for 12 months. (f j 'l he apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the area of the site of thc public I work shall ensure equal employment and aftirmative action in apprenticeship for women and mi- norities. (g) 'I�he ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trade on the public work may be no higl�er than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates where the contractor agrees to be bound by those ! standards, but, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work. I (h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a �, day when any journeyman is cmployed at thejobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the � hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performcd by ajourneyman in il excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The con- tractor shall employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end oY the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However,the contrac- tor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during thc same time peri- od that thc journcymcn in the same craft or trade are employed at thejobsite. Where an hourly ap- prenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, tlie Chief of the Division of Appren- ticeship Standards, upon application of an apprenticeship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice tor each five journeymcn in a crafr or trade classitication. i . - P�;t x Cal L�b Codc 1 1777.� ' (i) A contractor covercd by this seciion that has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship pro- �i gram's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or that has been previously approved , for an apprenticeship program in the crafr or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to joumeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship standards, but in no event less than the I-to-S ratio required by subdivision (g). (j) Upon proper showin� by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular crafr or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual avcrage of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Chief of the Division � of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-> hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to �rant to a participating contractor or con- i tractor association a certiticate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Ap- prenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one o£the following conditions is met: � (1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 I percent. (2) 1'he number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. I (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable crafi or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of itsjourneymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis. (4) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contrac[ would 'I create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of�fellow em- ployees or the public at large. or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a � nature that training cannot be provided by ajourneyman. (1) When an exemption is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents j contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member con- � tractors shail not be required to subi�iit in3ividual applications for appro-val to local joint appreii- �� ticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards. �m) I (1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in performing any of the work under the �� contract, cmploys journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the Califomia Apprenticeship Council the same amount Chat the director determines is the prevail- � in� amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor i may take as a credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the con[ractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public works project. The con- ! tractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. � (2) At the conclusion of the 2002-03 fiseal yeaz a�d each fiscal year thereaYter, the California l Appre�ticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the council under this I subdivision, less the expenses of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards for administering this li subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticcship programs for the purpose of training ap- prentices. The funds shall be distributed as follows: I ' — — - --- – • i ^ Pa�se 9 ! .

I (R) If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or tradc and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the coun- cil, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices registered i in each program. (C) All training contributions not distributed under subparagraphs (A) and (B) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards. (3) All training contributions received pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Not- withstanding Section 13340 qf the Government Code, all money in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund is hereby continuously appropriated for the purpose of carrying out this subdivi- sion and to pay the expenses of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards. � (n) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to ef- I fectuate this section. The stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for i all apprenticeable occupations with the prime contractor. i (o) This section does not apply to contracts of general contractors or to contracts of specialty I contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor when the contracts of gen- I eral contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000).
