Ergon adds 18 apprentices
Queensland’s Ergon Energy has welcomed 18 new apprentices to its Rockhampton depot this week.
The apprentices will train as communications technicians, distribution linespersons, electrotechnology electricians and transmission linespersons.
State-wide, Ergon has accepted 65 new apprentices this year.
“The 65 new recruits represent Queensland’s great diversity and include five Indigenous apprentices and six females breaking into the traditionally male-dominated roles,” said the Minister for Energy, Mark Bailey.
“While the majority of new apprentices are school-leavers, about a third are aged 21 or older. The group also includes seven current employees who have successfully sought an apprenticeship to further their careers.”
“This year’s recruits were selected from around 2400 applicants, which shows the calibre of working for a government-owned corporation such as Ergon,” added the Member for Keppel, Brittany Lauga.
