Published verdict
Delete

The law looks obsolete, unjustified, or duplicative.

Summary

This ordinance creates a federally regulated four-year EFZ apprenticeship for knife smiths, with two school profiles, prescribed competence areas, mandated school and inter-company training shares, trainer qualification rules, apprentice quotas, documentation duties, final examinations, protected title rules, and a federal quality commission to update the training plan. It also embeds safety, health, environmental, and hazardous-work provisions into the training regime.

Verdict reason
This is occupation-specific central planning for a tiny trade. It fixes training duration, curricula, staffing ratios, apprentice caps, exams, and protected credentials by federal decree, raising entry and compliance costs while restricting firms’ ability to train according to actual demand. The packet shows no unique institutional necessity that justifies this level of micromanagement over voluntary training and certification.
