UIC § 10200 Effective Jan 1, 2025Div. 3 · Part 1 · Ch. 3.5

Statute text

The Legislature finds and declares the following:

(a)California’s economy is being challenged by competition from other states and overseas. In order to meet this challenge, California’s employers, workers, labor organizations, and government need to invest in a skilled and productive workforce, and in developing the skills of frontline workers. For purposes of this section, “frontline worker” means a worker who directly produces or delivers goods or services. The purpose of this chapter is to establish a strategically designed employment training program to promote a healthy labor market in a growing, competitive economy that shall fund only projects that meet the following criteria:

(1)Foster creation of high-wage, high-skilled jobs, or foster retention of high-wage, high-skilled jobs in manufacturing and other industries that are threatened by out-of-state and global competition, including, but not limited to, those industries in which targeted training resources for California’s small- and medium-sized business suppliers will increase the state’s competitiveness to secure federal, private sector, and other nonstate funds, and, in addition, provide for retraining contracts in companies that make a monetary or in-kind contribution to the funded training enhancements.
