Apprenticeship Programs; Equal Employment Opportunity; Correction
The Department of Labor (Department or DOL) is making technical corrections to the equal employment opportunity regulations that implement the National Apprenticeship Act of 1937.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Department of Labor issued a final rule published in the
Federal Register
on December 19, 2016 (81 FR 92026), to modernize the equal employment opportunity regulations that implement the National Apprenticeship Act of 1937. The existing regulations, set forth at 29 CFR part 30 (part 30), prohibit discrimination in registered apprenticeship on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, and sex, and require that sponsors of registered apprenticeship programs take affirmative action to provide equal opportunity in such programs.
The technical corrections being made, address minor publication errors, and therefore; should be treated as if they had been in the final rule published in the December 19, 2016
Federal Register
(81 FR 92026).
