Introduction – Apprenticeship & the Law

3

APPRENTICESHIP LAW� The Apprentices Act, 1961 was enacted with the objective of regulating the program of training of

apprentices in the industry by utilizing the facilities available therein for imparting on-the-job training.

� Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) & Ministry of Human Resource & Development (MHRD) are responsible for implementation of the Act

Eligibility CriteriaAny company or establishment with headcount >6 is eligible

IncentivesAn apprentice is paid consolidated monthly stipend, without ESI and EPF contributions

Mandatory CriteriaAny company or establishment

with headcount >40 is mandated by law to engage

apprentices

Goal – Minimum 2.5%Engage minimum of 2.5% to a

maximum of 10% of total headcount

Note: An apprentice cannot be an employee of the organization

Industry Concerns & Reforms

4

Outdated and prescriptive apprenticeship quota (trade-wise) not aligned with needs

Curriculum not in sync with new technologies & business landscape

Limited to ITI trades in manufacturing

Industry can engage apprentices within a band of 2.5% to 10% of its workforce

Introduction of ‘optional trades’ with discretion to industry to design course

Service sector, & graduates/candidates from STTs like PMKVY, etc. brought in

Cumbersome procedures and process; tedious returns to be filed

MSMEs lack in-house Basic Training set-up

Regulated regime & Inspector raj

Automated processes, ease in hiring and reporting with a dedicated apprenticeship portal; minimal

returns

Industry can outsource Basic Training & collectively undertake OJT

From Regulation to Self Regulation- SSC CEOs appointed as JAAs, Industry Chambers

as TPAs

INDUSTRY CONCERNS REFORMS

� Apprenticeship scheme is now significantly employer friendly and has wider acceptability for IT-ITeS companies

� Leading ITeS companies have begun enrolling under NAPS –Genpact, WNS, Netweb, SkillCube, Acme, Mahindra, Aegis
