Apprenticeship wage should be scrapped
I think that apprenticeship wages should be scrapped altogether. I strongly disagree with the apprenticeship wage as it is under paying the national minimum wage for full time work.
Why is this important?
Why should an apprentice be paid less money, by a considerable amount for working full time
This is important as people on apprenticeships should be entitled in making the correct amount of the money that they are working for. Why should an apprentice have to work 9-5 5 days a week maybe even longer hours and more days to be paid less than a part time worker at the place or even the full time worker? Its the same job role? both working the same amount of hours if not more? for then to get a monthly payment of what seems to be nothing.
