AN ACT ESTABLISHING A SINGLE HIRING RATIO FOR THE SKILLED TRADES.
HB 5322 would require skilled trades employers to hire one apprentice for every licensed worker they employ, changing current hiring practices. This policy directly affects businesses in skilled trades like plumbing, electrical work, and construction that hire apprentices. The bill amends Section 20-332b of state law to establish this uniform one-to-one hiring ratio nationwide. It does not specify additional requirements or exceptions, focusing solely on the mandated ratio.
