Craft apprenticeships are vital to the future of housebuilding and economic growth in Ireland. However, apprentices are being forced to work for below the minimum wage, face long delays in their courses and exploitation by unscrupulous employers which is forcing many to leave their chosen trade or emigrate.
Apprentices are the future of our trades and their work is vital to the economic and social wellbeing of our Country. However, increasing numbers are being forced out of their chosen career due to an inability to live on what is often below minimum wage pay, long delays in accessing college-based training and their exploitation as cheap labour by some employers.
