National Apprenticeship and Training Standards for Glaziers and Glassworkers. Revised.
Manpower Administration (DOL), Washington, DC. Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training.
Intended to provide a uniform pattern for use by employers and labor representatives in setting up and operating effective apprenticeship programs for glaziers and glassworkers, guidelines are listed under the following headings: Definitions, qualifications for apprenticeship, selection of apprentices, term of apprenticeship, related instruction, ratio of apprentices to journeymen, apprenticeship agreement, probationary period, apprentices' wages, credit for previous experience, hours of work, supervision of apprentices, coordinator of apprenticeship, consultants, accident prevention, adjusting differences, work experience, certificate of completion, and modification. Guidelines are also provided for adapting the national standards to local use. These include suggestions on formation of a local joint apprenticeship committee, duties of local committees, responsibilities of apprentices, and assistance from cooperating agencies. Federal laws and regulations affecting the employment and training of apprentices are summarized. Appendix A contains work process schedules for glaziers and glassworkers, provided as examples of the type of work experience and training (stated in number of hours for various subcategories) considered necessary to develop a skilled and productive worker in the two categories. Also appended are examples of apprentice recordkeeping forms; a model affirmative action program; and a list of regional offices of the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training. (JT)
