Apprenticeship “Any system by which an employer undertakes by contract to employ a young person and to train him or have him trained systematically for a trade for a period the duration of which has been fixed in advance and in the course of which the apprentice is bound to work in the employer's service” (ILO Thesaurus)
Egyptian Legal Framework • ILC 138 and ILC 182 • CRC • Labor Code no. 12/2003 • ED. 118/2003 • ED. 175/2003 • Child Law 126/2008
Apprenticeship(Egyptian context) • On-the-Job training opportunity for children in the age group (13-18) on safe occupations (Decree 118/2003) • An apprenticeship contract is signed between the child (or his guardian), the employer and the apprenticeship inspector representing Ministry of Labor (Decree 175/2003) • Monitoring through filing (workplace) and database (MoMM directorate)
Contract terms • Identification of workplace and employer • Apprentices’ rights • Insurance against occupational hazards • Work environment and OSH tools
Key Challenges • Field review of training enterprises • Available Vocational Training Centres (MOMM, MSJS. etc.) • Off-the-job component and technical level of young employees versus trainer • Usage of OSH tools • Non-registered workshops
Key Challenges • Necessary tools to establish/improve on-the-job training • Enterprises where apprentices are working (small Workshops) • Apprentices to be enrolled /retained in the programme • Mentors (following apprentices in the enterprises), • Intermediary Bodies (NGOs). • Trainers/teachers in VTCs. • Families/parents. • Monitoring
