TH DECEMBER 1945] 4 P ART I - SECT 14

Employers not to receive premiums.

14.(1) Where a worker to whom a wages regulation order applies is an
apprentice or learner, it shall not be lawful for his employer to receive
directly or indirectly from him, or on his behalf or on his account, any
payment by way of premium:

Provided that nothing in this sub-section shall apply to any such payment duly
made in pursuance of any instrument of apprenticeship not later than four
weeks after the commencement of the apprenticeship or to any such payment made
at any time if duly made in pursuance of any instrument of apprenticeship
approved for the purposes of this proviso by a wages council.

(2) If any employer acts in contravention of this section, he shall be liable
on summary conviction in respect of each offence to a fine not exceeding
twenty pounds, and the court may, in addition to imposing a fine, order him to
repay to the worker or other person by whom the payment was made the sum
improperly received by way of premium.
