e. 6. C. Data Assessment
Review the previous four years Wagner-Peyser data reports on performance. Note whether the State has been meeting its goals to provide MSFWs quantitatively proportionate services as compared to non-MSFWs. If it has not met these goals, explain why the State believes such goals were not met and how the State intends to improve its provision of services in order to meet such goals.
Current Narrative:
Based upon Wagner-Peyser reports, the SWA has all but two (2) required data elements.
- Placement in long-term non - agricultural employment for MSFWs – Most MSFWs are domestic workers or they are farmworkers re-locating to the state for seasonal work, only; and they are not interested in other long- term employment.
- Job development MSFWs – Most workers tend to be in the mid - twenties up to middle aged males who already have secured work with employers, before they left during the last agricultural season. They return to work for the same employer each year or quickly find a new employer based upon information from family or friends.
Plan: The SWA is working with agricultural employers and partner agency staff offering MSFWs the full array of employment services and emphasizing sustainable employment.
