The conditions of work applicable to apprentices depend, to an extent, on the legal status of apprentices and on the contractual relationship with the enterprises, which is normally regulated by national legislation. In some countries, the legislative framework provides apprentices with a specific, separate legal status that determines the type of contract between the enterprise and the apprentice. In other countries, it is the apprenticeship agreement that spells out all the elements of the apprenticeship. All frameworks on quality apprenticeship envisage that apprentices be provided with the same rights and benefits of other workers in terms of. 1. Hours of work and rest periods. 2. Minimum wages and/or adequate remuneration levels. 3. Occupational safety and health. 4. Access to social protection.
