What can I expect from my employer?

As an apprentice or trainee, you are a valuable asset to your employer. You can expect:

support and supervision for your day-to-day training to give you every opportunity to complete your apprenticeship or traineeship
where off-the-job training is needed, your employer will need to give you the time off work to complete this*
a safe working environment.

*Formal training and assessment, whether taken on or off-the-job, must be paid by your employer if taken in working time. However this may differ for some situations. Contact ABL Apprenticeships Centre on 1300 652 236 to check.
