How do I find a new sponsor if I am laid off?
Locating a new employer differs based upon your employment situation. Apprentices working in the open shop environment are responsible for locating a new employer using traditional job search strategies. Apprentices must contact the ITA so that the proper records are brought up to date once a new employer has been located. Apprentices working in a closed shop environment should familiarize themselves with their ‘joint boards’ policy in this event.
