The National Apprenticeship Act (NAA) of 1937, (29 U.S.C. 50), authorizes the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) to âformulate and promote the furtherance of labor standards necessary to safeguard the welfare of apprentices.â The NAA can be accessed on the Departmentâs website at: https://www.apprenticeship.gov/about-us/legislation-regulations-guidance.

In the NPRM associated with this ICR, the Department is proposing updates to 29 CFR part 29 and with conforming or technical adjustments to 29 CFR part 30.
