Apprenticeship and Training Committees — Eligibility of Family and Current Employees
(1)
To the extent that the State Apprenticeship and Training Council determines that it would not result in an adverse impact on apprenticeship opportunities based on an individual’s protected class status, an applicant who is otherwise eligible for selection as an apprentice under the selection method approved by the Council for use by the local committee may be directly registered to a family business or the applicant’s current employer, subject to the consent of the applicant, regardless of whether another employer would otherwise be entitled to register the applicant under the selection method used by the local committee.(2)
As used in this section, “otherwise eligible for selection as an apprentice under the selection method approved by the Council for use by the local committee” shall mean that the applicant:(a)
Has met the minimum qualifications for entry into the program; and(b)
Has been evaluated or ranked by the local committee pursuant to the procedure set forth in its approved selection method; and(c)
Based on that evaluation or ranking, is the next applicant or in the immediate group of applicants eligible to be assigned or dispatched to a registered training agent pursuant to the local committee’s approved selection method.(3)
When submitting a new or revised selection method to the Council for approval, local committees must indicate whether they will be using an exception to the selection methods established in Title 29 CFR Part 30 and must note in their committee minutes when an individual is registered pursuant to subsections (1) and (2) above.(4)
Nothing in this rule is intended or should be interpreted as discouraging the use of a qualification standard or selection method on the basis of relative qualifications, if the qualification standard or selection criteria have been validated in accord with the guidelines established in Title 41 CFR Part 60-3.6.
