Hi,

I am an HR practitioner in a spa industry. In the company that I’m working for we have apprentices since the company are the one who trained them. My questions are: Can we considered our employees as Apprentice even if we are not accredited by TESDA? Is the 75% required salary applicable to them?

Hi! Does the Department of Labor require the employer to apply for a permit or license to hire (i don’t know if it’s the right term) an apprentice/trainee? Thank you.

Cindy, it appears that answering your follow-up questions, as it now relates to your company, would constitute rendering legal opinion. We are prohibited from doing so, which is the reason why I could not make specific discussions. Please see the “Terms of Use” above. I’m sorry and I hope you understand.

Considering that your company’s planned set-up requires the preparation of various documents pursuant to certain laws and regulations, I strongly suggest you discuss it with your company’s lawyer. Thanks

I’ve checked TESDA’s list of apprenticeable occupations. It’s very
limited. For one thing, computer programming is not in the list. Does it
mean that it’s not covered by the Labor Code on Apprentices? Does it mean
that we can’t hire programmers as OJT?

Thanks.
