On this episode of the Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇåion Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with British Columbia Â鶹´«Ã½¸ßÇåion Association (BCCA) president Chris Atchison about a new federal initiative which puts $21 million in funding towards B.C. employers hiring a minimum of 2,100 first-year apprentices in eligible Red Seal trades over the next two years.

Atchison said the BCCA will manage the campaign in British Columbia while working with many construction industry stakeholders to ensure employers are able to hire apprentices and help laborers they already employ move to apprenticeship.

Additional incentives will be used to encourage hiring from equity-deserving groups to create welcoming and inclusive workplaces.
