Under the Incolink Trust Deeds, an apprentice or employee can claim their apprenticeship days as redundancy in a number of situations. These are:

1. An apprentice completes their apprenticeship and then works for 52 weeks in the commercial building industry and their employer/s have paid 52 weeks redundancy contributions into Incolink for that period.
   
   
2. An apprentice who has not finished their apprenticeship is laid off due to a lack of work and there is no arrangement with their employer to re-employ them.
   
   
3. An apprentice completes their apprenticeship and is laid off due to a lack of work within the next 52 weeks and there is no arrangement with their employer to re-employ them.

To be eligible to have the days paid out as redundancy under A, the employee and the employer must complete and lodge an Initial Claim Form. Under B and C, the employee and the employer are required to complete and lodge an Initial Claim Form, the Application for payment for Apprentice Credits claim form and provide the necessary supporting paperwork.
 
NOTE: In B and C, if the employee/apprentice resigned or ceased work voluntarily or due to any other reason, the employee/apprentice will not be eligible to claim their apprentice credits.
