Section 296.07. Existing list of eligibles and public notice.

 

(1)  A sponsor adopting a selection method under s. DWD 296.06 (2) (a) (b) , and a sponsor adopting a selection method under s. DWD 296.06 (2) (d) who determines that there are fewer minorities and/or women (minority and nonminority) on its existing lists of eligibles than would reasonably be expected in view of the analysis described in s. DWD 296.05 (5) shall discard all existing eligibility lists upon approval and adoption of their selection methods and affirmative action plan. New eligibility lists shall be established and current copies will be provided the agency. The sponsor shall provide at least 30 days of public notice in advance of the earliest date applicants may apply and establish a reasonable period of not less than 2 weeks for accepting applications for the eligibility lists. Notification procedures shall be outlined in the sponsor's affirmative action plan.

(2)  Applicants who have been placed in a pool of eligibles shall be retained on lists of eligibles subject to selection for a period of 2 years. Applicants may be removed from the list at an earlier date by their request or following their failure to respond to an apprentice job opportunity given by registered return receipt mail notice. Applicants who have been accepted in the program shall be afforded a reasonable period of time in light of the customs and practices of the industry for reporting for work. All applicants shall be treated equally in determining such period of time. It shall be the responsibility of the applicant to keep the sponsor informed of a current mailing address. A sponsor may restore to the list of eligibles an applicant who has been removed from the list at his or her request or who has failed to respond to an apprenticeship job opportunity.
