  1. Priority Re-employment Services (PREP) Identify and Schedule UC claimants for Reemployment Services

  2. PREP • Introduction - Purpose • Benefit to One Stop Service Centers • Customer Identification • Process • Service Plan • Outcomes

  3. Purpose • Identification of dislocated workers • Provide timely re-employment services to shorten duration of UC • Return claimants to productive, stable employment • Receive positive customer feedback

  4. One-Stop Career Center Benefits • Provides a steady, scheduled source of job applicants • Increases placement rates • Invaluable resource of dislocated workers • Customer appreciation for knowledge of services available

  5. Reason for Program • Federal Law - U.C. Amendments of 1993, Public Law (PL) 103-152 • Florida U.C. Law, Section 443.091(1)(d) Florida Admin. Rules- 60BB-3.028 • Opportunity for UC claimants who file Internet, telephone or mail claims to receive reemployment services

  6. UC Law FL Statutes Section 443.091 4 (d) • An unemployed individual shall be eligible to receive benefits with respect to any week only if the agency finds that she or he participates in reemployment services, such as job search assistance services, pursuant to a profiling system established by rule of the agency to be likely to exhaust regular benefits and to be in need of reemployment services.

  7. Customer Identification • Monetarily eligible UC, Combined Wage (CWC), Federal (UCFE), and Military (UCX) claimants who have received a first payment

  8. Excluded Claimants • Interstate Claimants • Special programs TIP, TRA, DUA, and STC • Transitional Claimants • Claimants on Recall Status • Seasonally / Partially unemployed • First pay > than 42 days after the BYB

  9. Profiling Process • Selection – UC identifies pool • Pool sent to OSMIS (weekend process) • Scheduling - Before 5:00PM Thursday • Notices mailed to claimants • Claimant identified in OSMIS PREP Worklog • Services provided in OSMIS Service Plan • Entered as completed in Service Plan and in EFM

  10. Exemption in OSMIS

  11. Orientation • Record Attendance & explain benefits • Group completes Assessment Questionnaire and Work Readiness Checklist • Identify exempted individuals and excuse • Schedule claimants for interview/services based on the Readiness Checklist and Self Evaluation • Provide services • Enter as completed in OSMIS and EFM

  12. Orientation Emphasis • Attending Reemployment services is not good cause for refusing suitable work • Work search suspended for service only • If unable to attend, notify One- Stop • Documentation needed to exempt • Allow claimants to reschedule

  13. Assessment Interview • Completion of Assessment Questionnaire • Assessment Interview recorded • EFM Services Screen • Results on Notes screen

  14. Exemptions • Return to work date within 10 weeks • Take an “obtained” employment count • Attending approved training • Check BQ01 or BH10 for non-monetary determination • Prior Services Received in the last 12 months • documentation required or check BH10

  15. Analysis • Educational Level • Work History • Vocational Skills • Barriers

  16. Re-employment Services

  17. Intent • The intent of PREP is to provide Re-employment Services, not to deny benefits. • Try to re-schedule, instead of exempting. If you schedule an individual for services, please try to provide those services and code the plan as having completed the services to receive credit. • Try not to exempt individuals if at all possible because USDOL has requested that no more that 30% of those scheduled be exempted from services.

  18. Summary of Process • Orientation • Assessment Interview • Service Plan to Schedule Services • Provide Reemployment Services • Enter completion code on Service Plan to receive service credit and to remove Profiling flag • Enter completed services on EFM activities screen
