What are apprentice days?

Victorian and Tasmanian Employers are required to provide the number of days an apprentice works on a commercial/industrial construction site on a monthly basis as the apprentice receives insurance cover under the Personal Accident Leisure Time Insurance scheme.

Once the apprentice completes their apprenticeship in Victoria or Tasmania, has worked on a commercial construction site for 12 months and has subsequently received 52 weeks of redundancy contributions, the days reported by employer/s during an apprenticeship convert to money and are credited to the employee's account.
