On-the-job training provides occupational training in an actual job setting. A contract is established to compensate the employer for the extraordinary costs associated with training an individual who may not be as productive as a highly qualified individual. The employer is reimbursed for up to 50% of the wage rate during the training period. The employer agrees to retain the trainee as a regular employee at the end of the successful contract period.
