I think by the time the HSE enquiry was over the apprentices job would
be safe for a while.

Apprentices are disposable. If you want shut you get shut. There are lots of
easy ways to do this, some of them are legal.

How did the apprentice make it past the interview? I would assume a
few O levels or the equivalent are needed.

Qualifications mean sod all if you cannot plug an extension lead in.

Anyway I would inform the apprentice where he went wrong and on a
second occasion refuse to work with him. Sites can be dagerous places
an a clear understanding of the task and what is expected is an
absolute must.

Then you could never have an apprentice then. They always **** up even after
repeated instructions.
