Reference: Older Worker Bulletins 97-35 Background: The manuals are the second of a series of publications that are being disseminated. These manuals are a compilation of successful experiences and strategies of SCSEP project directors and sponsors on obtaining unsubsidized employment. They are designed to help SCSEP sponsors increase the quantity and quality of unsubsidized placements, enabling SCSEP enrollees to live more satisfying and productive lives. Using Public Relations to Market Older Workers: This manual provides resource material to help SCSEP sponsors initiate or enrich their public relations activities. It is intended to help more older Americans find unsubsidized jobs by increasing the visibility of older worker programs. Job seekers enrolled in the SCSEP need visibility to help them in their efforts to find unsubsidized employment. The better the program and its participants are known in the community, the better the chances are that the local employers will take advantage of this labor pool of older workers. This resource manual is divided into six sections: -- Using the Media -- Preparing Effective Brochures, Flyers and Posters -- Planning and Publicizing Job Fairs -- Planning and Publicizing "Hire the Older Worker Week" -- Business Cards with a Message -- Other Ways to Publicize Your Program How to Help SCSEP Enrollees find Jobs: This resource manual presents material derived from the workshops on job clubs, the job developer, unsubsidized placements in rural areas, developing employer relationships and job search courses and individual job search. It is divided into four major sections: -- How to Organize and Operate a Job Club: -- How to Select, Train and Use a Job Developer -- How to Train Individuals and Groups to Use Job Search Techniques -- How to Promote the Hiring of SCSEP Enrollees Using Motivation and Training to Increase Job Placements: This manual presents ideas and techniques that have worked for successful SCSEP practitioners. In Chapter 1, "How to Use Motivation to Increase Unsubsidized Placements," emphasis is placed on the importance of making sure enrollees understand that the function of the SCSEP is not to provide jobs, but rather to provide the work experience and training that will prepare them for unsubsidized jobs in the public and private sectors. In Chapter 2, "How to Use Skill Training to Increase Unsubsidized Placements," information is presented on some of the training options presently available and how they are being used. Future Publications: The remaining publications to be disseminated include: (1) Employment and Training Policy Implications of the Aging Baby Boom Generation; (2) Increasing Private Sector Placements by Using OAA Section 502(e) Authority and; (3) Individual Assessment and Planning for Enrollees in SCSEP. Also, other relevant publications will be disseminated as they become available. Older Workers Homepage: It is anticipated that these publications will be available for downloading from the SCSEP website. More information on this will be provided when it is available.

References: Section 303(a)(1) of the Social Security Act (SSA). Background: Due to State budget constraints, some States have, in the past, imposed hiring freezes, furloughs and other actions on a State-wide basis. These actions are usually taken during economic downturns when State revenues decline while the demand for UI services increases. State UI agencies have objected to being subjected to these State fiscal actions on the basis that, because Federal UI grants may only be used for UI purposes, there are no savings to the State budget. The Department has supported the UI agencies in articulating this argument. The Department has noted that these actions will likely have a detrimental effect on unemployed workers and businesses and result in decreased performance against Federal standards. Finally, the Department has noted that, since the amount of Federal funds provided to a State takes into account the State's workload, Federal funding for UI increases during downturns. In spite of these objections, the UI program has been subjected to these fiscal restrictions. As a result, the Department has re-examined this matter to determine whether a more proactive stance may be taken to assure the continued delivery of UI services during downturns. This UIPL is issued to advise States of the Department's determination and its basis in Federal law. Department's Position: Section 303(a)(1), SSA, requires, as a condition of a State receiving grants for the administration of its UI law, that State law provide for-- Such methods of administration . . . as are found by the Secretary of Labor to be reasonably calculated to insure full payment of unemployment compensation when due; One of the basic purposes of this "methods of administra-tion" requirement is to assure the proper and prompt delivery of UI services to claimants and employers. Therefore, any action that does not take into account the service delivery needs of the UI program, is not a "method of administration" consistent with Section 303(a)(1), SSA. This position applies to all State-wide personnel actions, including hiring freezes, shutdowns, furloughs, across-the-board staff reductions, and any process that serves to delay the hiring of UI staff when additional staff is needed. When a State subjects the UI program to State-wide personnel actions, the State will be required to demonstrate to the Department that it has adequately addressed the UI program's needs. These needs include all activities funded by Federal dollars - payments, determinations, appeals, integrity and tax functions, etc. The State will be required to address how its workload will be handled without a decline in performance. If a State fails to show that its actions adequately take into account the needs of its UI program, then the action is not an acceptable "method of administration" under the SSA and the State's entire UI grant could be at risk. Similarly, if State performance declines despite the State's "showing" that program needs have been considered, then the action may not be an acceptable "method of administration." The Department recognizes that there may be situations where hiring freezes, staff reductions or other personnel actions taken by the UI agency are necessary. For example, when workload decreases, the need for staff decreases and the UI agency will need to take appropriate action to assure that only amounts necessary for the proper and efficient administration of the UI program are expended from grant funds. Since these actions take into account the needs of the UI program, they raise no issue under Federal law. Action Required: State agency administrators are requested to provide this UIPL to appropriate staff.
