BILL NUMBER:A4096A
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the social services law, in relation to
training and education for sustainable wage jobs and traditional and
nontraditional employment in public assistance employment programs
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 defines "nontraditional
employment" and "sustainable wage." Section 2 requires that local social
services district plans for public assistance employment programs empha-
size training for sustainable wage jobs and promote understanding of
nontraditional employment opportunities for participants. Section 3
requires that participant orientations include information on education
and training for sustainable wage jobs and non-traditional employment
opportunities available under the local plan. Sections 4 and 5 require
participant employability plans to take into account the potential for
available employment that pays a sustainable wage such as apprentice-
able, technical and professional occupations and nontraditional employ-
ment.
JUSTIFICATION: In the rush to reduce welfare rolls under federal welfare
reform, many welfare recipients have been placed in low-paying jobs. In
particular, initial studies of women moving from welfare to work indi-
cate that the vast majority of women move into jobs that do not lift
them and their children out of poverty. These jobs are typically in
industries, such as food service and home health care, which are tradi-
tionally populated by women workers.
