The government has taken steps to protect learners by transferring the training of all Carillion apprentices to the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB). CITB has already secured new employment, with wages, for over half of the apprentices and these apprentices will be working to the agreed terms and conditions of their new employer. We are working progressively to find alternative employers for all those affected. At present, it has been agreed that all former Carillion apprentices will continue to be paid beyond 31 January, whilst alternative employers are being sought.
