National Standards of Apprenticeship FOR Terrazzo Workers JOINTLY FORMULATED AND ADOPTED BY THE NATIONAL TERRAZZO AND MOSAIC ASSOCIATION, INC. AND BRICKLAYERS', MASONS' AND PLASTERERS' INTERNA- TIONAL UNION OF AMERICA IN ACCORDANCE WITH STANDARDS OF THE FEDERAL COMMITTEE ON APPRENTICESHIP U. S. Department of Labor • Bureau of Apprenticeship • Washington NATIONAL TERRAZZO WORKERS JOINT APPRENTICESHIP COMMITTEE The National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, Inc. Harry N. Cafmeyer, President Theodore L. Medford, Executive Secretary Bricklayers, Masons and Plasterers' International Union of America Harry C. Bates, President R. J. Gray FOREWORD The intricacies and high quaUty of work in the terrazzo trade re- quires craftsmen with a background of training and experience in a wide variety of tasks. When terrazzo work was first introduced in this country in 1890, an ample supply of skilled workers could be ob- tained from Italy where the craft originated and was developed. Since then — and especially after the curtailment of immigration fol- lowing World War I — there has been a gradual depletion in the ranks of terrazzo craftsmen, due to retirement, death, and other causes. With the growing popularity of terrazzo in the United States, the need to expand the skilled working force greatly increased. Although centuries old, terrazzo is recognized today as thoroughly modern architecturally for a variety of purposes. It is being selected by architects for floor finish, wall surfaces, bases, borders, wainscot- ing, stair treads, plazas, bathroom decoration, and other uses. The adaptability of terrazzo for unique, decorative design, its durability and low maintenance cost, have made it especially popular for floor- ing in foyers of office buildings, hotels and educational institutions; in banks and churches; for plazas and other public places. To provide for the craftsmen needed in the trade, and maintain continuously an adequate skilled working force, the basic standards of apprenticeship, set forth in the following pages, have been formu- lated by a national employer-labor committee for the guidance of those concerned with training. This committee is equally repre- sentative of the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, and the Bricklayers, Masons and Plasterers International Union of America. These standards were formulated with the assistance of the Bureau of Apprenticeship, U. S. Department of Labor. They are designed to serve as a pattern for contractors and labor in every locality in establishing adequate, uniform programs of apprenticeship, and in organizing local committees to carry out the objectives of the pro- grams. The training provisions outlined conform with practices and procedures generally accepted in this country as the most effective 776561°— 48 1 x to enable apprentices to master the skills required for full-fledged craftsmanship. In addition to the guidance provided by these standards, con- tractor and labor groups may take advantage of the assistance of rep- resentatives of the Bureau of Apprenticeship and State Apprentice- ship Agencies listed in the latter part of this pamphlet. William F. Patterson, Director, Bureau of Apprenticeship. NATIONAL STANDARDS OF APPRENTICESHIP FOR TERRAZZO WORKERS In order to provide sufficient skilled mechanics for the natural in- crease of the terrazzo trade, it is agreed to by both signatories to this agreement that an apprentice system be established of such scope as will meet the requirements both as to the number and the efficiency of its workmen. It is further agreed that in order to promote the institution and execution of an apprentice system guaranteeing thorough training, the following rules and regulations be adopted and made part of this agreement, and both parties hereto bind themselves to carry them into eflect. GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE EMPLOYMENT, TRAINING AND INSTRUCTION OF APPRENTICES Applicants for apprenticeship must be at least 17 years of age. Each local joint arbitration board or joint apprenticeship committee shall have the right to determine the maximum age for apprentices. All apprentices must be duly indentured. Applicants for apprenticeship shall be approved by the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee of the B. M. & P. I. U. of A. and the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, and be registered at the B. M. & P. I. U. of A. headquarters. Apprentices shall serve a term of three years at the terrazzo trade, including school instruction, as directed by the local joint arbitration board or local joint apprenticeship committee. The first three months of apprenticeship term shall be recognized as a probationary period. During this period the appr.enticeship indenture may be annulled or cancelled for cause by either party thereto. Under certain conditions hereinafter set forth, the apprenticeship period may be reduced. There may be two types of apprentices and the local joint arbitration boards or local joint apprenticeship committees may utilize either or both of these classifications in making apprentices: (i) the individual who has had no previous experience in the terrazzo industry; (2) the terrazzo workers' helper. Helper apprentices shall serve for a term of two years after which, if qualified, he shall receive his journeyman's card. His wages shall start at the second-year rate provided hereinafter. Veterans must be given preference for apprenticeship training by all local joint arbitration boards or local joint apprenticeship committees. The local joint arbitration boards or local joint apprenticeship commit- tees may grant such other concessions to veterans in their localities as the individual cases coming before them may warrant. All local joint arbitration boards or local joint apprenticeship committees shall familiarize themselves with the provisions of the G. I. "Bill of Rights" in order that full advantage may be taken of any opportunities offered by the Federal Government to aid in the furthering of this apprentice- ship program. Apprentices shall be given a thorough training in all work pertaining to the preparing and installing of all work as is classified in Article 2 of the National Agreement between the B. M. & P. I. U. and the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association. The rate of apprentice wages shall be as follows: First year 60 percent of the mechanic's wage . Second year 70 percent of the mechanic's wage . Third year 80 percent of the mechanic's wage. Supervision of aprentices and the enforcement of a faithful per- formance of the apprenticeship agreement by both parties hereto shall be as follows: (a) In States and Provinces having laws pertaining to ap- prentices, by the laws of the State or Province. (b) In cities having no State or Provincial laws, the regula- tion of apprentices shall be by the joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee of the local terrazo contractors and the local union. All indentures must be executed in quadruplicate, one copy to the apprentice, one retained by the employer, the third to be filed with the Party of the First Part, and the fourth with the Party of the Second Part of this agreement. Apprentices upon completion of their term shall be furnished v/ith a suitable certificate upon application for same to be issued by the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association and the Brick- layers, Masons and Plasterers' International Union of America, ac- companied with recommendations and certificates of qualifications by the supervising boards. Apprentices shall work with a mechanic for the first year of their apprenticeship. Helper apprentices shall work with a mechanic for the first six months of their apprenticeship. There shall be two methods under which apprentices may be indentured: {a) Any employer, subject to the approval of the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship com- mittee, may indenture an apprentice and assume the full responsibility of continuous employment and com- plete training of this boy for the period of his ap- prenticeship. {b) Apprentices may be indentured to the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee and such inden- tures shall be known as the rotation system. The board assumes full responsibility for the employment and training of such ap- prentices. All rules governing the training of these men shall be promulgated by the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee. It is agreed that apprentices may be transferred from one contractor to another, and from operation to operation in the shops of the terrazzo contractors who agree to participate in the rotation plan and who have not personally in- dentured an apprentice, and shall be, and remain, under the super- vision and at the direction of the local union through the ofi&cials selected for this duty. The employment of such apprentices shall be provided for to the average of the employment for the journey- man terrazzo worker within that jurisdiction. In all cities that have a separate terrazzo workers' local union, the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship com- mittee shall not indenture more than 5% in numbers of the number of members in the local terrazzo workers' organization, and not more than 5% each year thereafter: however, in localities in which there are mixed local unions and the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee desire to use the rotating system, they shall not indenture more than one apprentice to every two terrazzo firms in the area participating in the rotation plan. However, there is nothing to stop other terrazzo contractors in the area who, if they so desire and who employ on the average of two or more journeymen throughout the year may employ one apprentice, and when an average of five mechanics is employed throughout the year by any one em- ployer he may be entitled to two aprentices and assume full responsi- bility for his employment and training heretofore mentioned, and these firms shall not be counted for the purpose of determining the number of apprentices that can be trained under the rotation ,plan in that area. Any employer having agreed to and participated in the rotation plan shall not be eligible to indenture an individual apprentice until such time as those apprentices indentured while such contractor was a party to the rotation plan shall have finished the term of their apprenticeship. In the event there may be exceptional or extenuating circumstances in any locality, the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee may appeal to the B. M. & P. I. U. of A. and the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association for permission to in- crease the number of . apprentices over and above the maximums established herein. In the event there is a deadlock in the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprenticeship committee over any problems affecting apprentices or the apprenticeship program, it must be referred to the executive officers of the B. M. & P. I. U. of A. and the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association for settlement. Such settlement by the executive officers of these two organizations shall be binding and final on the local joint arbitration board or the local joint apprentice- ship committtee. APPROVED BY: THE NATIONAL TERRAZZO WORKERS JOINT APPRENTICESHIP COMMITTEE National Terrazzo and Bricklayers, Masons and Plas- MosAic Association, Inc. terers' International Union Harry N. Cafmeyer, of America, President - Harry C. Bates, President Theodore L. Medford, R. J. Gray Executive Secretary REGISTRATION OF APPRENTICESHIP STANDARDS AND AGREEMENTS State apprenticeship councils and the Federal Committee on Ap- prenticeship, the national policy-making body on apprentice train- ing, provide for the registration of apprenticeship standards and in- dividual apprenticeship agreements. Local joint apprenticeship com- mittees should formally register apprenticeship standards and ap- prenticeship agreements with these councils or with the Federal Committee on Apprenticeship in States where no such council exists. The apprenticeship standards should specify that it shall be the duty of the local apprenticeship committee: r. To request the appropriate State apprenticeship agency, recognized by the Federal Committee on Apprenticeship, to register each ap- prenticeship agreement (which automatically registers such agree- ment with the Federal Committee). If no such State agency exists, the Bureau of Apprenticeship, U. S. Department of Labor should be requested to register the apprenticeship agreement with the Federal Committee on Apprenticeship. 2. To notify the appropriate registration agency of all terminations or cancellatitons of apprenticeship agreements. 3. To recommend that each apprentice be issued a Certificate of Completion of Apprenticeship by the registration agency after the apprentice has completed his term of apprenticeship and an exam- ination by the local joint apprenticeship committee. 4. After final approval of the local apprenticeship standards, the lo- cal joint apprenticeship committee should send a copy of the stand- ards to the National Terrazzo Workers Joint Apprenticeship Com- mittee. 5. All joint apprenticeship committees should send periodic reports to the National Terrazzo Workers Joint Apprenticeship Com- mittee on the number of apprenticeship agreements that are reg- istered, completed, and cancelled. APPRENTICE SCHEDULE FOR TERRAZZO WORKERS The following schedule of trade experience and training for ap- prentices is based upon schedules in programs registered with the Federal Committee on Apprenticeship, or State apprenticeship councils. The schedule does not necessarily cover the entire jurisdiction of any trade classification. If desired, 85% of the apprenticeship term may be allocated to specific items of experience, leaving 15% of the time for review or emphasis in some phase of the trade, in accordance with local needs of the apprentice and the industry. During his apprenticeship, the apprentice shall receive instruction and experience in all branches of terrazzo work as indentured, includ- ing the preparation of material for assembly, as is necessary to develop a practical and skilled craftsman, versed in the theory and practices of the trade. He shall also perform such other duties in the shop and on the job as are commonly related to a terrazzo apprenticeship. This schedule is an example of the type of experience and training through employment, considered necessary to develop a skilled worker in the trade. The approximate training time should be established by the local joint apprenticeship committee. APPROXIMATE EXPERIENCE SCHEDULE TRAINING TIME A. Shoot water levels B. Lay screeds, rod off concrete C. Lay out pattern designs from sketches or plans D. Set grade strips (brass, metal, wood) set grounds for terrazzo base and curbs E.

To All Members of The National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, Inc. It is essential that an adequate number of skilled Terrazzo Workers be available in all areas of this country to carry on the construction work in this trade. Experience has proved that a good apprentice- ship program operated by management and labor is the best method to develop skilled Terrazzo Workers. In order that each Terrazzo Contractor may do his share in training apprentices, the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, Inc., and the Bricklayers, Masons. & Plasterers' International Union have jointly developed and approved National Apprenticeship Stand- ards for Terrazzo Workers. These National Apprentice- ship Standards are based on successful apprenticeship experience in all parts of the country. They were for- mulated by the National Joint Terrazzo Workers Appren- ticeship Committee in accordance with standards of the Federal Committee on Apprenticeship, the management- labor policy committee of the Apprentice-Training Serv- ice, U. S. Department of Labor. The National Terrazzo and Mosaic Association, Inc., strongly urges all Terrazzo Contractors, in cooperation with Labor, to place these national standards in opera- tion in all local areas and to start training appren- tices. Write or call the nearest office of the Apprentice- Training Service and request their help and consulting assistance in order that your program may be placed in operation as quickly as possible.

Any adjustments made should be held to a minimum and should be for the purpose of adjusting these standards to meet conditions existing in your particular locality. We hope that this will provide a sound program for an extensive apprentice-training system in this trade. Fraternally yours. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR FEDERAL COMMITTEE ON APPRENTICESHIP WASHINGTON 2 5 D. C. August 10, 1947 National Terrazzo Workers Joint Apprenticeship Committee Gentlemen: I am pleased to advise you that the National Stand- ards of Apprenticeship for Terrazzo Workers, jointly formulated and adopte'd by your national committee, representing the National Terrazzo and Mosaic Associa- tion and the Bricklayers', Masons', and Plasterers' International Union of America, have been approved by and registered with the Federal Committee on Appren- ticeship. In view of the increasing need for terrazzo crafts- men, and the vital importance of thorough training to master the skills in the craft, the adoption of these national apprenticeship standards fills a long-felt need. The circulation of these standards among con- tractor and labor groups throughout the United States will help greatly to promote the establishment of ade- quate programs to develop the much needed skilled workers. The inclusion of provisions for registering programs and apprentices will, in addition to the administrative advantages, facilitate the compilation of current sta- tistics on apprenticeship activities in all parts of the country. I sincerely hope that everyone engaged in the trade who is concerned with training, will receive a copy of these standards for his guidance in setting up and con- ducting apprenticeship programs. In planning programs contractors and labor may also have the assistance of field representatives of Apprentice-Training Service. Very truly yours, Wm. F.
