Adult apprentices

An adult apprentice is anyone who is over 21 when they start their apprenticeship.

Adult apprentices receive the same entitlements as other apprentices, but they are entitled to different rates of pay. You can use PayCheck Plus to find rates of pay for your adult apprentices.

If one of your current employees becomes an adult apprentice, you must continue to pay them the rate of pay for the classification they were previously employed in.
