About 90% of an apprenticeship is on-the-job training provided by the sponsor/employer; the rest is the in-school [[Curriculum]].<br /> <br /> Local 873 (through its training contact) can help connect prospective apprentices with sponsor/employers, and answers questions about the program at &#039;&#039;&#039;training@iatse873.com&#039;&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> == Why train through the union ==<br /> <br /> From Local 873&#039;s recruitment material, apprentices and sponsor/employers both benefit: apprentices become qualified &quot;journeypersons,&quot; and employers gain a pipeline of workers with current, standardized knowledge and technique. Ontario also offers financial incentives on both sides of this relationship:<br /> <br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Apprenticeship Training Tax Credit&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; for corporations/unincorporated businesses that hire apprentices in eligible trades.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Employer Signing Bonus&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; for employers registering new apprentices in high-demand sectors.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Apprenticeship Scholarship and Loans for Tools&#039;&#039;&#039; (Ontario) and the federal &#039;&#039;&#039;Apprenticeship Incentive Grant&#039;&#039;&#039; / &#039;&#039;&#039;Apprenticeship Completion Grant&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; for apprentices.<br /> <br /> == Other entry pathways ==<br /> <br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP)&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; lets high school students register as apprentices while earning co-op credits; contact a guidance counsellor, technical teacher, or local Employment Ontario apprenticeship staff.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Co-Op Diploma Apprenticeship&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; college students receive apprenticeship training while earning a diploma.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Pre-Apprenticeship Training&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; helps unemployed individuals build skills and eligibility for a specific trade.<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> <br /> * [[Becoming Certified]]<br /> * [[About 269E]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Union]]</div> Thu, 09 Jul 2026 05:02:53 GMT Admin https://269e.org/index.php?title=Talk:The_Union https://269e.org/index.php?title=Safety_%26_Codes&diff=35&oldid=0 https://269e.org/index.php?title=Safety_%26_Codes&diff=35&oldid=0 <p>add Safety and Codes page</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{Official}}<br /> Temporary power distribution and lighting for film, television, live performance, trade shows, and events in Ontario is governed by the &#039;&#039;&#039;Ontario Electrical Safety Code (OESC)&#039;&#039;&#039; and, specifically for this industry, by &#039;&#039;&#039;ESA SPEC-003&#039;&#039;&#039;: &#039;&#039;Television, Film, Live Performance and Event Electrical Guidelines&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=ESA SPEC-003 R7|section=full document|url=http://www.eesa.tech/uploads/9/2/1/8/92180466/esa_spec-003_r7.pdf}}<br /> <br /> ESA SPEC-003 is a joint publication of the &#039;&#039;&#039;Electrical Safety Authority (ESA)&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;mdash; Ontario&#039;s designated electrical safety regulator under Ontario Regulation 89/99 &amp;mdash; and the &#039;&#039;&#039;Entertainment Electrical Safety Committee of Ontario (EESCO)&#039;&#039;&#039;. It is explicitly a best-practice guideline, not a replacement for the OESC: &quot;Omission herein of any requirements presently in the OESC does not in any way affect the OESC.&quot;<br /> <br /> == Permits and incident reporting ==<br /> <br /> * The OESC (Rules 2-004 and 44-100) requires a wiring notification/permit for any temporary wiring distribution system. Productions/events must file with ESA within &#039;&#039;&#039;48 hours prior&#039;&#039;&#039; to any electrical activity, and post the permit number visibly near the central power distribution point.<br /> * Any electrical accident or incident must be reported to ESA within &#039;&#039;&#039;48 hours&#039;&#039;&#039;, and the scene must not be disturbed except as needed for safety or continuity of service.<br /> <br /> == Who&#039;s allowed to do the work ==<br /> <br /> Only a certified Entertainment Industry Power Technician (269E) or a holder of a valid Construction and Maintenance Electrician (309A) Certificate of Qualification may design, implement, monitor, and disconnect single-pin and single-pin-based distribution systems. Supervised registered apprentices may handle, connect, and disconnect single-pin distribution under that person&#039;s direction.<br /> <br /> == Selected general practices ==<br /> <br /> * All electrical equipment (including cordsets) must bear an approval or certification mark, or be field-approved.<br /> * A log must be kept of all electrical maintenance performed during a show, event, or production; field-repaired equipment must be tagged and tested before reuse.<br /> * Power should be de-energized during set-up/reconfiguration where practicable, and locked out/tagged when unattended.<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;Class A GFCIs&#039;&#039;&#039; are required on circuits feeding utilization equipment (audio racks, luminaires, kitchen units, porta-potties, power tools, wash stations) in wet/damp locations, within 3 m of standing water, or where snow/salt/slush is likely &amp;mdash; with specific exceptions (exit lighting, fire/smoke/CO alarm circuits, fire pumps).<br /> * Non-current-carrying metallic parts must be bonded to ground (OESC Section 10).<br /> * A non-meltable, non-combustible safety cable/chain is required on all suspended luminaires, in addition to the primary rigging attachment.<br /> * HMI, xenon, and similar discharge sources require extra precautions: no contact with the unit/ballast when striking, clearance in damp/rainy conditions (increased arcing risk), awareness of UV output, and full power-down/cool-down before re-lamping.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=ESA SPEC-003 R7|section=Sections 2.1&amp;ndash;2.4, pp.11&amp;ndash;16}}<br /> <br /> == Power sources ==<br /> <br /> Recognized source types: diesel/gasoline/gaseous-fuel engine-driven generator sets, utility (&quot;house&quot;/&quot;shore&quot; power), and storage batteries. Common Canadian voltage/distribution configurations include 120 V single phase two-wire, 120/240 V single phase three-wire, 120/208 V three-phase four-wire (Wye), and 347/600 V three-phase four-wire (Wye), among others.<br /> <br /> All generator installations using single conductor cable and/or downstream overcurrent devices must be installed per the OESC/SPEC, have overcurrent protection on any ungrounded conductor, be grounded, and be inspected by ESA before use.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=ESA SPEC-003 R7|section=Section 3, pp.16&amp;ndash;17}}<br /> <br /> == Glossary ==<br /> <br /> A few load-bearing terms from ESA SPEC-003&#039;s definitions section (see the full document for the complete list):<br /> <br /> ; Single pin<br /> : A single-conductor plug-in locking-type connector, rated up to 400 A (e.g. CAM-LOK).

It combines:<br /> <br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;4,520 hours&#039;&#039;&#039; of on-the-job training (the duration the Industry Committee identified as generally necessary to become competent), tracked against the 9 skill sets in the [[Training Standard]]; and<br /> * &#039;&#039;&#039;480 hours&#039;&#039;&#039; of in-school training, delivered per the [[Curriculum]] (4 levels of 120 hours each, typically block-release or part-time/night school).<br /> <br /> The Industry Committee identified a &#039;&#039;&#039;1:1 journeyperson-to-apprentice ratio&#039;&#039;&#039; as generally necessary for proper on-the-job training. In practice this means an apprentice normally works alongside (or under the supervision of) a journeyperson or equivalent.<br /> <br /> To &#039;&#039;&#039;complete&#039;&#039;&#039; the apprenticeship program (and receive a Certificate of Apprenticeship), an apprentice must:<br /> <br /> * achieve competency in all mandatory (unshaded) skills identified in the Training Standard, signed off by the sponsor/employer; and<br /> * complete the in-school Curriculum.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=Apprenticeship Training Standard|section=Apprenticeship Program Summary/Guidelines, pp.2&amp;ndash;4}}<br /> <br /> === Registering as an apprentice ===<br /> <br /> When a person who wants to be an apprentice has found a sponsor/employer willing to train them, either party contacts apprenticeship staff at the local Employment Ontario office. A training consultant arranges a meeting at the workplace to assess the sponsor/employer&#039;s ability to train, prepares the training agreement, and initiates training. At that point the apprentice receives their copy of the Training Standard, which becomes their personal record of on-the-job progress.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=IATSE Local 873 Apprenticeship Flyer}}<br /> <br /> == The exam-challenge path (non-apprentices) ==<br /> <br /> A worker who has never registered as an apprentice can still challenge the C of Q exam directly. To be eligible, the challenger must:<br /> <br /> * provide proof of competency in all mandatory (unshaded) skills identified in the Training Standard; and<br /> * demonstrate that they have acquired &#039;&#039;&#039;5,000 hours&#039;&#039;&#039; of on-the-job experience in the trade.<br /> <br /> {{Source|doc=Apprenticeship Training Standard|section=Program Requirements, p.4}}<br /> <br /> == After certification ==<br /> <br /> Passing the exam (70% pass mark &amp;mdash; see [[Exam Prep]]) earns a Certificate of Qualification.
