On the Job Training Law & Legal Definition

Related to On The Job Training

On-the-job training is training that takes place at the work site and is supervised by a manager or an experienced coworker. Certain jobs require on-the-job training under the policy of the individual employer. Some jobs are required to provide on-the-job training under federal laws.

For example, On-the-Job Training (OJT) is a federally mandated training program for highway construction contractors. Its aims include to:

  •  Train the future highway construction workforce

  •  When appropriate, OJT can be used as an affirmative action tool to assist contractors in meeting their Equal Employment Opportunity obligations
  •  Possibly lead workers into the apprenticeship system that results in journey level status

Also, the Department of Labor offers registration for apprenticeship programs. As the apprentice demonstrates satisfactory progress in both the on-the-job training and related instruction, they are advanced in accordance with the wage schedule as outlined in the registered Apprenticeship Standards.
