A DAS 142 apprentice request must be sent 72 hours before apprentices are needed. If apprentices are needed on day 10, by what day should the request be sent?

Correct Answer

A) Day 7.

Seventy-two hours equals three days, so a day 10 need date requires request by day 7.

Answer Options
A
Day 7.
B
Day 8.
C
Day 9.
D
Day 10.

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Seventy-two hours equals three days, so a day 10 need date requires request by day 7.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option B: Day 8.

Day 8. is above the supported result for apprentice request timing; it likely pays the wrong premium tier or counts the same hours twice.

Option C: Day 9.

Day 9. is above the supported result for apprentice request timing; it likely pays the wrong premium tier or counts the same hours twice.

Option D: Day 10.

Day 10. is above the supported result for apprentice request timing; it likely pays the wrong premium tier or counts the same hours twice.

Memory Technique

Planning Public payroll: time, premium, reimbursement, proof in separate buckets.

Reference Hint

Study anchor (closed-book): memorize Apprentice request timing from California Labor Code Section 1777.5; DIR Division of Apprenticeship. / California Labor Code Section 1777.5; DAS 142 guidance; know the rule or calculation trigger without relying on exam-room lookup.
