Massachusetts Laborers’ Apprentice applications dates have been announced. Individuals can fill out applications at the local union in Massachusetts between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. on December 8, 2020.

An apprenticeship with a local union is your first step towards a great career. It’s a job that will not be outsourced, it pays well, offers health benefits and a retirement plan. Most apprentices, regardless of experience, immediately begin to earn a wage while learning on-the-job and in the classroom. As your skills, knowledge and experience increase, so does your rate of pay.

To be eligible to complete an application you must be 18 years old and physically able to do the work or the trade. Must submit to drug testing. Must have a driver’s license and must have a high school diploma or GED equivalent and must have reliable transportation.

Tribal members interested may be eligible for the 477 Program through the Tribe’s Work Force Investment Opportunity Act (WIOA). For more information about the apprentice application and how the 477 Program may help you with career advancement, please contact WIOA Program Manager Marnell Cash at (508) 477-0208 ext 161.
