(a) Each State agency, in its annual program budget plan, shall
describe its plan to carry out the requirements of this subpart in the
following year. The plan shall include, where applicable, the outreach
and affirmative action plans required by Secs. 653.107 and 653.111,
respectively. For significant MSFW States, ETA shall establish program
performance indicators reflecting equity indicators and indicators
measuring minimum levels of service to MSFWs which the significant MSFW
State agencies will be required to meet. These program performance
indicator requirements shall be contained in the PBP Guidelines which
ETA promulgates on an annual basis.
(b) Equity indicators shall address JS controllable services and
shall include, at a minimum, individuals referred to a job; receiving
counselling; receiving job development; receiving some service; and
referred to supportive service.
(c) Minimum level of service indicators shall address other services
to MSFWs and shall include, at a minimum, individuals placed in a job;
placed in a job with a wage exceeding the Federal minimum wage by at
least 50 cents/hour; placed long-term (150 days or more) in a non-
agricultural job; review of significant MSFW local offices; field checks
on agricultural clearance orders; outreach contacts per staff day; and
processing of complaints. The determination of the minimum service
levels required of significant MSFW States for each year shall be based
on the following:
(1) Past State agency performance in serving MSFWs, as reflected in
on-site reviews and data collected under Sec. 653.109;
(2) The need for services to MSFWs in the following year, comparing
prior and projected levels of MSFW activity;
(3) The ETA program priorities for the following year; and
(4) Special circumstances and external factors existing in the
particular State.
(d) The Regional Administrator shall review this portion of the PBP,
and approve it upon making a written determination that it is acceptable
in light of the requirements of this subpart. The Regional
Administrator's written determination shall be available to the public
upon request.
