Who provides supplementary theoretical instruction when an apprenticeship is undertaken in the plant?
Practical training on the plant floor often needs to be complemented with structured theoretical knowledge for comprehensive learning. When an apprenticeship program is undertaken directly within the physical plant, the responsibility for this classroom instruction is clearly designated. The supplementary theoretical instruction to the apprentices in these specific cases may be done by the employer themselves. This internal approach to educational supplementation is provided for and allowed under Article 69 Labor Code of the Philippines. “ART. 69. Responsibility for Theoretical Instruction. – Supplementary theoretical instruction to apprentices in cases where the program is undertaken in the plant may be done by the employer.” 31-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
