"Our apprentices are vital to the continued success of the company and we are committed to providing a training programme to support them throughout their apprenticeship. Each of our apprentices will be given the opportunity to learn valuable skills that will benefit them throughout their careers and open up a career path to every level of the company.
"We understand that it is vital to continue to train apprentices now to avoid shortages of skilled people available to support our industry in the future and I urge the building industry to continue to invest in fresh talent, despite the difficult economic circumstances.
"Our new apprentices will play a key role in the future of the company and as they start their training, I wish them every success for the future."
Michael Florence, an apprentice joiner said: "I always enjoyed practical work at school so applied for an apprenticeship at Rok and was delighted when I was successful. The company has some really good training schemes and I'm looking forward to getting some hands on experience working on projects."
Rok currently employs 115 apprentices in Scotland and remains committed to supporting and developing young people throughout its apprenticeship programme and beyond.
