Apprenticeships
As an apprentice, you’re employed to do a real job whilst you train, developing new skills and obtaining the knowledge needed to succeed in your chosen career. For a minimum of 12 months, the apprenticeship will combine hands-on work with at least 20% of your time learning and studying at college.
The National Minimum Apprenticeship wage went up to £4.30 from £4.15 per hour on 1st April 2021. Please be aware, if you have an Apprentice on this wage that has been furloughed, they are entitled to their 80% furlough pay, however the other 20% does have to be topped up by their employer, with them being on a low wage bracket. Any questions, please do get in touch! We are here to help.
