What is Apprentices Act?
India's central legislation enacted in 1961 that regulates apprenticeship training in industries and establishments, setting standards for training duration, stipends, and the obligations of employers who engage apprentices.
Why it matters in hiring
Apprentices Act comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
