12-181 C.M.R. ch. 2, § 15 - Enforcement Actions
Where the Maine Apprenticeship Program, as a result of a compliance review, complaint investigation, or other reason, determines that the sponsor is not operating its apprenticeship program in accordance with this part, it must notify the sponsor in writing of the specific violation(s) identified and may:
a. Offer the
sponsor technical assistance to promote compliance with this part.
b. Suspend the sponsor's right to register
new apprentices if the sponsor fails to implement a compliance action plan to
correct the specific violation(s) identified within 30 business days from the
date the sponsor is so notified of the violation(s), or, if the sponsor submits
a written response to the findings of noncompliance, fails to implement a
compliance action plan within 30 days of receiving the Maine Apprenticeship
Program's notice upholding its initial noncompliance findings. If the sponsor
has not implemented a compliance action plan within 30 business days of
notification of suspension, the Maine Apprenticeship Program may institute
proceedings to deregister the program in accordance with the deregistration
proceedings set forth in MRS Title 26, § 3206, or if the Maine
Apprenticeship Program does not institute such proceedings within 45 days of
the start of the suspension, the suspension is lifted.
c. Take any other action authorized by law.
These other actions may include, but are not limited to:
1. Referral to the EEOC;
2. Referral to the Maine Human Rights
Commission; or 3. Referral to the Department's OFCCP.
