Labor Officials Tour Plumbers Local 12 Apprenticeship Training Center

Rep. Josh Cutler, House Chair of the Committee on Labor and Workforce Development, other officials visit growing apprenticeship programs

Rep. Josh Cutler, House Chair of the Committee on Labor and Workforce Development, will lead a delegation of state labor officials on a tour of cutting edge training facilities, including Plumbers Union Local 12, as part of a campaign to promote the benefits of apprenticeship programs.

“Apprenticeships offer a tried and tested career pathway to develop our future workforce,” said Rep. Cutler. “Employers win by tapping into new pools of qualified workers and apprentices get hands-on work experience, classroom instruction, and a certificate –– not to mention a paycheck and healthcare coverage as they are learning a new skill. Promoting registered apprenticeship programs will pay big dividends for the Commonwealth’s workforce.”

Rep. Cutler is slated to visit the Plumbers Union Local 12 headquarters at 12 p.m. on Thursday, March 30, including Local 12’s state-ofthe-art training facility. The tour also includes visits to Sheet Metal Workers Union Local
