Wage and Length of Participation Limitations in Title III-funded Disaster-Related Projects

Purpose

References: The Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), Title III, Part B, Sections 323(a)(1) and (b), 324(a)(2) and (4); and Title IV, Part J, Section 499B(c). National reserve grant Application Procedures for Emergency Dislocated Worker Projects as published in the July 9, 1992 FEDERAL REGISTER (pp 30554-30558). Background: Under Sections 323 and 324 of Title III of the JTPA, the Secretary is provided limited authority to approve temporary jobs creation demonstration programs to respond to natural disasters. The Secretary has exercised this limited authority for the allowance of demonstration projects, developed specifically for providing immediate services to natural disaster emergencies which contain a temporary job creation component. The Title III reserve account funds provided to States and substate grantees on an emergency basis are specifically earmarked to give priority services, including temporary employment, to workers who lose their jobs due to the disaster. These temporary jobs are permitted to assist in the immediate clean-up, repair and restoration of public facilities as a result of damage caused by the disaster. A usual and acceptable sequence of activities under the emergency grants is the immediate establishment of a temporary jobs component followed in some circumstances by a retraining component and culminating in the acquisition of unsubsidized employment by the participant. The limitations on participation in these temporary jobs of six months and a total wage limit of $6,000 per participant were established so that the Department could permit the operation of a temporary job creation component within the Act without exceeding the Secretary's limited authority as prescribed under the Act. Policies implemented by the Department with respect to these temporary jobs were established several years ago. A number of States have requested that the Department review these policies to determine whether such policies are reasonable and consistent with existing statutory requirements and other current relevant and related policies. In response to these requests, the Department has reviewed its policies related to emergency grants awarded to respond to natural disasters. As a result of its review, the Department is confirming or revising appropriate policies as indicated in Section 4. DOL Policy. a. Six-month Limitation: The amendments to the JTPA legislation, published December 29, 1992, in the Federal Register, provides for projects for disaster-related assistance and includes a statutory limitation of 6 months per individual for project participation. Therefore, in keeping with the provisions of the legislative amendments, the 6 month participation limitation will remain in effect. The six-month participation may be calculated based on a maximum of 1,040 hours, if the temporary worker is working less than 40 hours per week. In addition, the six-month limitation does not take into account any overtime during the six-month period which is authorized for other workers for the same employing entity. b. Wage Limitation: The wage limitation is an administrative policy based on wage levels, including the prevailing wage levels for the kinds of skilled occupations employed in clean-up and restoration activities. Wage levels for eligible participants shall not exceed the local wage level paid to a regularly employed individual for the type of work being performed. It is expected that in most instances, entry level wages will be paid. Given the increases in the wage levels in recent years, the Department is herewith establishing a new limitation of up to $12,000 per participant that will be granted on a project by project basis. The Secretary reserves the right to establish the wage limitation at a lower level, where the prevailing wage levels in the community do not warrant the higher limitation. Where a lower limitation has been established in the grant award letter, approval of a higher limitation may be issued by the Grant Officer upon submittal and review of sufficient documentation to support a higher limitation. For those participants who were terminated from a temporary job prior to the six-month participation limitation because of the $6,000 earnings limitation, they may be rehired by the State and permitted to work up to the new earnings limitation or the six- month maximum participation limitation, which ever comes first. The six-month limitation will apply to the total number of hours worked by any individual, regardless of an interruption in actual calendar months worked. Action Required: Any State presently operating an emergency dislocated worker project temporary job component may apply to the Grant Officer for authority to increase out of its existing grant budget the present earnings limitation of $6,000 per participant as indicated above. This must be submitted in the form of a grant amendment request. The State will be informed as expeditiously as possible of the decision on its request. The State should annotate the July 9, 1992, application procedures accordingly to indicate this change.

Reference: Training and Employment Information Notice (TEIN) No. 20-92. Background: The Targeting, Outreach and Recruitment (TOR) TAG was prepared for the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) by Region X and a team of JTPA practitioners, including both Regional and State staff. The project involved a sample of customers in an information exchange to identify needs, experts and model systems. The Guide is being provided to States and Service Delivery Areas to enhance targeting, outreach and recruitment activities necessary to meet the increased emphasis on serving those with serious barriers to employment. The TOR TAG begins with a look at system planning -- how it affects programs and specifically how it relates to targeting, outreach, and recruitment. The Guide then moves to Targeting and addresses the importance of this activity and how it can improve decisions about how the most needy can benefit from services. Next is a chapter on the Marketing Plan, which describes how public relations, outreach, and recruitment can fit neatly into a plan and assure that programs maximize resources while delivering a positive and consistent message to intended audiences. Following this, outreach and recruitment are treated in detail with definitions, concepts and many examples. Each chapter begins with a short introduction and definition of the concept. A description of the purpose and intent is next, followed by a presentation of methods and techniques. Ideas for how to manage the particular function are addressed. Finally, each chapter ends with a complete listing of citations from the Act and Regulations that readers may find helpful. Advance copies of the TAGs were distributed at the DOL sponsored train-the-trainer sessions on Targeting, Outreach and Recruitment held the weeks of November 15, November 29, and December 6. This TAG is part of a series of technical assistance guides and training being developed to assist States and service delivery areas (SDAs) in the implementation of quality JTPA programs. In addition to this TAG, the series include technical assistance guides and training in critical program areas such as: Assessment; Case Management; SDA Monitoring of Service Providers; On-the-Job Training; Financial Management; Procurement; and State Oversight. Distribution: Copies of the TAGs are being provided under separate cover to all State Liaisons for distribution to: -- SDAs (4 copies each); -- State Worker Adjustment Liaison (3 copies); -- State Employment Service Administrator (one copy); and -- State JTPA agency (balance of copies). The TAGs have been prepared in a loose-leaf format suitable for use in a three-ring binder. Computer disks are also being provided to the State Liaisons for distribution of one to each SDA.
