Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the <br />rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice’s level of <br />progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate <br />specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be <br />paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the <br />apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not <br />specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of <br />fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable <br />classification. If the Administrator determines that a different <br />practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes <br />shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the <br />Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, <br />or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, <br />withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor <br />will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the <br />applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an <br />acceptable program is approved. <br />(ii) Trainees.

If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, <br />trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the <br />wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour <br />Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program <br />associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the <br />wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits <br />for apprentices.
