d. 1. Coordination of and Provision of Labor Exchange Services for Ui Claimants as Required by the Wagner-peyser Act;
Current Narrative:
Since 2013, Indiana has worked hard to fully connect all UI claimants with the state’s employment service. The Indiana legislature put into effect the Jobs for Hoosiers program and further strengthened that legislation in the 2016 session. The Jobs for Hoosiers program requires all UI claimants at the 4th week to physically go to an orientation session of the employment services in one of Indiana’s WorkOne offices. This action directly connects these claimants with the Wagner Peyser system and funding. Additionally, all claimants are required to enter the state’s Wagner Peyser funded labor exchange system and complete an assessment, a resume and look for employment opportunities.
