Supposing that an electrical company takes on unskilled workers to provide them with apprenticeship training, truly investing in their. Before investing a bunch of time and resources into this training project, the company might reasonably want some assurances that they'll get an ROI.

Both the company and the potential trainee are likely better off if the trainee can be prevented from leaving for a competitor immediately after the training is complete, as the trainee would receive the benefit of the on the job training, and the company would receive the benefit of reduced turnover if they invest in such training. As a general matter here, the entire industry would also likely benefit, as on-the-job training would likely be more beneficial than school-based training, so all companies would eventually have more, better-trained workers.
