The ECA, in conjunction with SELECT, is responding on behalf of the electrotechnical industry to a government review into the Engineering Construction Industry Training Board (ECITB).

The ECITB imposes a training levy on firms that have any substantial commitment, even temporarily, to work in the engineering construction field. This can include the erection, repair or maintenance of plant or equipment for oil rigs or other parts of the petrochemical industry.

The ECA would welcome comments by any member firm that has dealt with the ECITB, along with copies of documentation including challenges against payment of the levy, customer satisfaction forms completed for the ECITB and details of complaints made to the Board.
