Work requirements.
414.065 Work requirements.--
(1) WORK ACTIVITIES.--The following activities may be used individually or in combination to satisfy the work requirements for a participant in the WAGES Program:
(a) Unsubsidized employment.--Unsubsidized employment is full-time employment or part-time employment that is not directly supplemented by federal or state funds. Paid apprenticeship and cooperative education activities are included in this activity.
(b) Subsidized private sector employment.--Subsidized private sector employment is employment in a private for-profit enterprise or a private not-for-profit enterprise which is directly supplemented by federal or state funds. A subsidy may be provided in one or more of the forms listed in this paragraph.
1. Work supplementation.--A work supplementation subsidy diverts a participant's temporary cash assistance under the program to the employer. The employer must pay the participant wages that equal or exceed the applicable federal minimum wage. Work supplementation may not exceed 6 months. At the end of the supplementation period, the employer is expected to retain the participant as a regular employee without receiving a subsidy. A work supplementation agreement may not be continued with any employer who exhibits a pattern of failing to provide participants with continued employment after the period of work supplementation ends.
2. On-the-job training.--On-the-job training is full-time, paid employment in which the employer or an educational institution in cooperation with the employer provides training needed for the participant to perform the skills required for the position. The employer or the educational institution on behalf of the employer receives a subsidy to offset the cost of the training provided to the participant. Upon satisfactory completion of the training, the employer is expected to retain the participant as a regular employee without receiving a subsidy. An on-the-job training agreement may not be continued with any employer who exhibits a pattern of failing to provide participants with continued employment after the on-the-job training subsidy ends.
3. Incentive payments.--The department and local WAGES coalitions may provide additional incentive payments to encourage employers to employ program participants. Incentive payments may include payments to encourage the employment of hard-to-place participants, in which case the amount of the payment shall be weighted proportionally to the extent to which the participant has limitations associated with the long-term receipt of welfare and difficulty in sustaining employment. In establishing incentive payments, the department and local WAGES coalitions shall consider the extent of prior receipt of welfare, lack of employment experience, lack of education, lack of job skills, and other appropriate factors. A participant who has complied with program requirements and who is approaching the time limit for receiving temporary cash assistance may be defined as "hard-to-place." Incentive payments may include payments in which an initial payment is made to the employer upon the employment of a participant, and the majority of the incentive payment is made after the employer retains the participant as a full-time employee for at least 12 months. An incentive agreement may not be continued with any employer who exhibits a pattern of failing to provide participants with continued employment after the incentive payments cease.
4. Tax credits.--An employer who employs a program participant may qualify for enterprise zone property tax credits under s. 220.182, the tax refund program for qualified target industry businesses under s. 288.106, or other federal or state tax benefits. The department and the Department of Labor and Employment Security shall provide information and assistance, as appropriate, to use such credits to accomplish program goals.
5. WAGES training bonus.--An employer who hires a WAGES participant who has less than 6 months of eligibility for temporary cash assistance remaining and who pays the participant a wage that precludes the participant's eligibility for temporary cash assistance may receive $240 for each full month of employment for a period that may not exceed 3 months. An employer who receives a WAGES training bonus for an employee may not receive a work supplementation subsidy for the same employee. Employment is defined as 35 hours per week at a wage of no less than minimum wage.
(c) Subsidized public sector employment.--Subsidized public sector employment is employment by an agency of the federal, state, or local government which is directly supplemented by federal or state funds. The applicable subsidies provided under paragraph (b) may be used to subsidize employment in the public sector, except that priority for subsidized employment shall be employment in the private sector. Public sector employment is distinguished from work experience in that the participant is paid wages and receives the same benefits as a nonsubsidized employee who performs similar work. Work-study activities administered by educational institutions are included in this activity.
(d) Community service work experience.--Community service work experience is job training experience at a supervised public or private not-for-profit agency. A participant shall receive temporary cash assistance in the form of wages, which, when combined with the value of food stamps awarded to the participant, is proportional to the amount of time worked. A participant in the WAGES Program or the Food Stamp Employment and Training program assigned to community service work experience shall be deemed an employee of the state for purposes of workers' compensation coverage and is subject to the requirements of the drug-free workplace program. Community service work experience may be selected as an activity for a participant who needs to increase employability by improving his or her interpersonal skills, job-retention skills, stress management, and job problem solving, and by learning to attain a balance between job and personal responsibilities. Community service is intended to:
1. Assess WAGES Program compliance before referral of the participant to costly services such as career education;
2. Maintain work activity status while the participant awaits placement into paid employment or training;
3. Fulfill a clinical practicum or internship requirement related to employment; or
4. Provide work-based mentoring.
As used in this paragraph, the terms "community service experience," "community work," and "workfare" are synonymous.
(e) Work experience.--Work experience is an appropriate work activity for participants who lack preparation for or experience in the workforce. It must combine a job training activity in a public or private not-for-profit agency with education and training related to an employment goal. To qualify as a work activity, work experience must include education and training in addition to the time required by the work activity, and the work activity must be intensively supervised and structured. The WAGES Program shall contract for any services provided for clients who are assigned to this activity and shall require performance benchmarks, goals, outcomes, and time limits designed to assure that the participant moves toward full-time paid employment. A participant shall receive temporary cash assistance proportional to the time worked. A participant assigned to work experience is an employee of the state for purposes of workers' compensation coverage and is subject to the requirements of the drug-free workplace program.
(f) Job search and job readiness assistance.--Job search assistance may include supervised or unsupervised job-seeking activities. Job readiness assistance provides support for job-seeking activities, which may include:
1. Orientation to the world of work and basic job-seeking and job retention skills.
2. Instruction in completing an application for employment and writing a resume.
3. Instruction in conducting oneself during a job interview, including appropriate dress.
4. Instruction in how to retain a job, plan a career, and perform successfully in the workplace.
Job readiness assistance may also include providing a participant with access to an employment resource center that contains job listings, telephones, facsimile machines, typewriters, and word processors. Job search and job readiness activities may be used in conjunction with other program activities, such as work experience, but may not be the primary work activity for longer than the length of time permitted under federal law.
(g) Vocational education or training.--Vocational education or training is education or training designed to provide participants with the skills and certification necessary for employment in an occupational area. Vocational education or training may be used as a primary program activity for participants when it has been determined that the individual has demonstrated compliance with other phases of program participation and successful completion of the vocational education or training is likely to result in employment entry at a higher wage than the participant would have been likely to attain without completion of the vocational education or training. Vocational education or training may be combined with other program activities and also may be used to upgrade skills or prepare for a higher paying occupational area for a participant who is employed.
1. Unless otherwise provided in this section, vocational education shall not be used as the primary program activity for a period which exceeds 12 months. The 12-month restriction applies to instruction in a career education program and does not include remediation of basic skills, including English language proficiency, if remediation is necessary to enable a WAGES participant to benefit from a career education program. Any necessary remediation must be completed before a participant is referred to vocational education as the primary work activity. In addition, use of vocational education or training shall be restricted to the limitation established in federal law. Vocational education included in a program leading to a high school diploma shall not be considered vocational education for purposes of this section.
2. When possible, a provider of vocational education or training shall use funds provided by funding sources other than the department or the local WAGES coalition. Either department may provide additional funds to a vocational education or training provider only if payment is made pursuant to a performance-based contract. Under a performance-based contract, the provider may be partially paid when a participant completes education or training, but the majority of payment shall be made following the participant's employment at a specific wage or job retention for a specific duration. Performance-based payments made under this subparagraph are limited to education or training for targeted occupations identified by the Occupational Forecasting Conference under s. 216.136, or other programs identified by the Workforce Development Board as beneficial to meet the needs of designated groups, such as WAGES participants, who are hard to place. If the contract pays the full cost of training, the community college or school district may not report the participants for other state funding, except that the college or school district may report WAGES clients for performance incentives or bonuses authorized for student enrollment, completion, and placement.
(h) Job skills training.--Job skills training includes customized training designed to meet the needs of a specific employer or a specific industry. Job skills training shall include literacy instruction, and may include English proficiency instruction or Spanish language or other language instruction if necessary to enable a participant to perform in a specific job or job training program or if the training enhances employment opportunities in the local community. A participant may be required to complete an entrance assessment or test before entering into job skills training.
(i) Education services related to employment for participants 19 years of age or younger.--Education services provided under this paragraph are designed to prepare a participant for employment in an occupation. The department shall coordinate education services with the school-to-work activities provided under s. 229.595. Activities provided under this paragraph are restricted to participants 19 years of age or younger who have not completed high school or obtained a high school equivalency diploma.
(j) School attendance.--Attendance at a high school or attendance at a program designed to prepare the participant to receive a high school equivalency diploma is a required program activity for each participant 19 years of age or younger who:
1. Has not completed high school or obtained a high school equivalency diploma;
2. Is a dependent child or a head of household; and
3. For whom it has not been determined that another program activity is more appropriate.
(k) Teen parent services.--Participation in medical, educational, counseling, and other services that are part of a comprehensive program is a required activity for each teen parent who participates in the WAGES Program.
(l) Extended education and training.--Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section to the contrary, the WAGES Program State Board of Directors may approve a plan by a local WAGES coalition for assigning, as work requirements, educational activities that exceed or are not included in those provided elsewhere in this section and that do not comply with federal work participation requirement limitations. In order to be eligible to implement this provision, a coalition must continue to exceed the overall federal work participation rate requirements. For purposes of this paragraph, the WAGES Program State Board of Directors may adjust the regional participation requirement based on regional caseload decline. However, this adjustment is limited to no more than the adjustment produced by the calculation used to generate federal adjustments to the participation requirement due to caseload decline.
(2) WORK ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS.--Each individual who is not otherwise exempt must participate in a work activity, except for community service work experience, for the maximum number of hours allowable under federal law, provided that no participant be required to work more than 40 hours per week or less than the minimum number of hours required by federal law. The maximum number of hours each month that a participant may be required to participate in community service activities is the greater of: the number of hours that would result from dividing the family's monthly amount for temporary cash assistance and food stamps by the federal minimum wage and then dividing that result by the number of participants in the family who participate in community service activities; or the minimum required to meet federal participation requirements. However, in no case shall the maximum hours required per week for community work experience exceed 40 hours. An applicant shall be referred for employment at the time of application if the applicant is eligible to participate in the WAGES Program.
(a) A participant in a work activity may also be required to enroll in and attend a course of instruction designed to increase literacy skills to a level necessary for obtaining or retaining employment, provided that the instruction plus the work activity does not require more than 40 hours per week.
(b) WAGES Program funds may be used, as available, to support the efforts of a participant who meets the work activity requirements and who wishes to enroll in or continue enrollment in an adult general education program or a career education program.
(3) EXEMPTION FROM WORK ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS.--The following individuals are exempt from work activity requirements:
(a) A minor child under age 16, except that a child exempted from this provision shall be subject to the requirements of 1paragraph (1)(i) and s. 414.125.
(b) An individual who receives benefits under the Supplemental Security Income program or the Social Security Disability Insurance program.
(c) Adults who are not included in the calculation of temporary cash assistance in child-only cases.
(d) One custodial parent with a child under 3 months of age, except that the parent may be required to attend parenting classes or other activities to better prepare for the responsibilities of raising a child. If the custodial parent is age 19 or younger and has not completed high school or the equivalent, he or she may be required to attend school or other appropriate educational activities.
(4) PENALTIES FOR NONPARTICIPATION IN WORK REQUIREMENTS AND FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ALTERNATIVE REQUIREMENT PLANS.--The department shall establish procedures for administering penalties for nonparticipation in work requirements and failure to comply with the alternative requirement plan. If an individual in a family receiving temporary cash assistance fails to engage in work activities required in accordance with this section, the following penalties shall apply. Prior to the imposition of a sanction, the participant shall be notified orally or in writing that the participant is subject to sanction and that action will be taken to impose the sanction unless the participant complies with the work activity requirements. The participant shall be counseled as to the consequences of noncompliance and, if appropriate, shall be referred for services that could assist the participant to fully comply with program requirements. If the participant has good cause for noncompliance or demonstrates satisfactory compliance, the sanction shall not be imposed. If the participant has subsequently obtained employment, the participant shall be counseled regarding the transitional benefits that may be available and provided information about how to access such benefits. Notwithstanding provisions of this section to the contrary, if the Federal Government does not allow food stamps to be treated under sanction as provided in this section, the department shall attempt to secure a waiver that provides for procedures as similar as possible to those provided in this section and shall administer sanctions related to food stamps consistent with federal regulations.
(a)1. First noncompliance: temporary cash assistance shall be terminated for the family until the individual who failed to comply does so, and food stamp benefits shall not be increased as a result of the loss of temporary cash assistance.
2. Second noncompliance: temporary cash assistance and food stamps shall be terminated for the family until the individual demonstrates compliance in the required work activity for a period of 30 days. Upon compliance, temporary cash assistance and food stamps shall be reinstated to the date of compliance.
3. Third noncompliance: temporary cash assistance and food stamps shall be terminated for the family for 3 months. The individual shall be required to demonstrate compliance in the work activity upon completion of the 3-month penalty period, before reinstatement of temporary cash assistance and food stamps.
(b) If a participant receiving temporary cash assistance who is otherwise exempted from noncompliance penalties fails to comply with the alternative requirement plan required in accordance with this section, the penalties provided in paragraph (a) shall apply.
If a participant fully complies with work activity requirements for at least 6 months, the participant shall be reinstated as being in full compliance with program requirements for purpose of sanctions imposed under this section.
(5) CONTINUATION OF TEMPORARY CASH ASSISTANCE FOR CHILDREN; PROTECTIVE PAYEES.--
(a) Upon the second or third occurrence of noncompliance, temporary cash assistance and food stamps for the child or children in a family who are under age 16 may be continued. Any such payments must be made through a protective payee or, in the case of food stamps, through an authorized representative. Under no circumstances shall temporary cash assistance or food stamps be paid to an individual who has failed to comply with program requirements.
(b) Protective payees shall be designated by the department and may include:
1. A relative or other individual who is interested in or concerned with the welfare of the child or children and agrees in writing to utilize the assistance in the best interest of the child or children.
2. A member of the community affiliated with a religious, community, neighborhood, or charitable organization who agrees in writing to utilize the assistance in the best interest of the child or children.
3. A volunteer or member of an organization who agrees in writing to fulfill the role of protective payee and to utilize the assistance in the best interest of the child or children.
(c) The protective payee designated by the department shall be the authorized representative for purposes of receiving food stamps on behalf of a child or children under age 16. The authorized representative must agree in writing to use the food stamps in the best interest of the child or children.
(d) If it is in the best interest of the child or children, as determined by the department, for the staff member of a private agency, a public agency, the department, or any other appropriate organization to serve as a protective payee or authorized representative, such designation may be made, except that a protective payee or authorized representative must not be any individual involved in determining eligibility for temporary cash assistance or food stamps for the family, staff handling any fiscal processes related to issuance of temporary cash assistance or food stamps, or landlords, grocers, or vendors of goods, services, or items dealing directly with the participant.
(e) The department may pay incidental expenses or travel expenses for costs directly related to performance of the duties of a protective payee as necessary to implement the provisions of this subsection.
(f) If the department is unable to designate a qualified protective payee or authorized representative, a referral shall be made under the provisions of chapter 39 for protective intervention.
(6) PROPORTIONAL REDUCTION OF TEMPORARY CASH ASSISTANCE RELATED TO PAY AFTER PERFORMANCE.--Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (4), if an individual is receiving temporary cash assistance under a pay-after-performance arrangement and the individual participates, but fails to meet the full participation requirement, then the temporary cash assistance received shall be reduced and shall be proportional to the actual participation. Food stamps may be included in a pay-after-performance arrangement if permitted under federal law.
(7) EXCEPTIONS TO NONCOMPLIANCE PENALTIES.--Unless otherwise provided, the situations listed in this subsection shall constitute exceptions to the penalties for noncompliance with participation requirements, except that these situations do not constitute exceptions to the applicable time limit for receipt of temporary cash assistance:
(a) Noncompliance related to child care.--Temporary cash assistance may not be terminated for refusal to participate in work activities if the individual is a single custodial parent caring for a child who has not attained 6 years of age, and the adult proves to the department an inability to obtain needed child care for one or more of the following reasons:
1. Unavailability of appropriate child care within a reasonable distance from the individual's home or worksite.
2. Unavailability or unsuitability of informal child care by a relative or under other arrangements.
3. Unavailability of appropriate and affordable formal child care arrangements.
(b) Noncompliance related to domestic violence.--An individual who is determined to be unable to comply with the work requirements because such compliance would make it probable that the individual would be unable to escape domestic violence shall be exempt from work requirements pursuant to s. 414.028(4)(g). However, the individual shall comply with a plan that specifies alternative requirements that prepare the individual for self-sufficiency while providing for the safety of the individual and the individual's dependents. A participant who is determined to be out of compliance with the alternative requirement plan shall be subject to the penalties under subsection (4). An exception granted under this paragraph does not constitute an exception to the time limitations on benefits specified under s. 414.105.
(c) Noncompliance related to treatment or remediation of past effects of domestic violence.--An individual who is determined to be unable to comply with the work requirements under this section due to mental or physical impairment related to past incidents of domestic violence may be exempt from work requirements for a specified period pursuant to s. 414.028(4)(g), except that such individual shall comply with a plan that specifies alternative requirements that prepare the individual for self-sufficiency while providing for the safety of the individual and the individual's dependents. A participant who is determined to be out of compliance with the alternative requirement plan shall be subject to the penalties under subsection (4). The plan must include counseling or a course of treatment necessary for the individual to resume participation. The need for treatment and the expected duration of such treatment must be verified by a physician licensed under chapter 458 or chapter 459; a psychologist licensed under s. 490.005(1), s. 490.006, or the provision identified as s. 490.013(2) in s. 1, chapter 81-235, Laws of Florida; a therapist as defined in s. 491.003(2) or (6); or a treatment professional who is registered under 2s. 415.605(1)(g), is authorized to maintain confidentiality under s. 90.5036(1)(d), and has a minimum of 2 years experience at a certified domestic violence center. An exception granted under this paragraph does not constitute an exception from the time limitations on benefits specified under s. 414.105.
(d) Noncompliance related to medical incapacity.--If an individual cannot participate in assigned work activities due to a medical incapacity, the individual may be excepted from the activity for a specific period, except that the individual shall be required to comply with the course of treatment necessary for the individual to resume participation. A participant may not be excused from work activity requirements unless the participant's medical incapacity is verified by a physician licensed under chapter 458 or chapter 459, in accordance with procedures established by rule of the department. An individual for whom there is medical verification of limitation to participate in work activities shall be assigned to work activities consistent with such limitations. Evaluation of an individual's ability to participate in work activities or development of a plan for work activity assignment may include vocational assessment or work evaluation. The department or a local WAGES coalition may require an individual to cooperate in medical or vocational assessment necessary to evaluate the individual's ability to participate in a work activity.
(e) Noncompliance due to medical incapacity by applicants for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).--An individual subject to work activity requirements may be exempted from those requirements if the individual provides information verifying that he or she has filed an application for SSI disability benefits and the decision is pending development and evaluation under social security disability law, rules, and regulations at the initial reconsideration, administrative law judge, or Social Security Administration Appeals Council levels.
(f) Other good cause exceptions for noncompliance.--Individuals who are temporarily unable to participate due to circumstances beyond their control may be excepted from the noncompliance penalties. The department may define by rule situations that would constitute good cause. These situations must include caring for a disabled family member when the need for the care has been verified and alternate care is not available.
(8) WORK ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS FOR NONCUSTODIAL PARENTS.--
(a) The court may order a noncustodial parent who is delinquent in child support payments to participate in work activities under this chapter so that the parent may obtain employment and fulfill the obligation to provide support payments. A noncustodial parent who fails to satisfactorily engage in court-ordered work activities may be held in contempt.
(b) The court may order a noncustodial parent to participate in work activities under this chapter if the child of the noncustodial parent has been placed with a relative, in an emergency shelter, in foster care, or in other substitute care, and:
1. The case plan requires the noncustodial parent to participate in work activities; or
2. The noncustodial parent would be eligible to participate in the WAGES Program and subject to work activity requirements if the child were living with the parent.
If a noncustodial parent fails to comply with the case plan, the noncustodial parent may be removed from program participation.
(9) PRIORITIZATION OF WORK REQUIREMENTS.--The department and local WAGES coalitions shall require participation in work activities to the maximum extent possible, subject to federal and state funding. If funds are projected to be insufficient to allow full-time work activities by all program participants who are required to participate in work activities, local WAGES coalitions shall screen participants and assign priority based on the following:
(a) In accordance with federal requirements, at least one adult in each two-parent family shall be assigned priority for full-time work activities.
(b) Among single-parent families, a family that has older preschool children or school-age children shall be assigned priority for work activities.
(c) A participant who has access to nonsubsidized child care may be assigned priority for work activities.
(d) Priority may be assigned based on the amount of time remaining until the participant reaches the applicable time limit for program participation or may be based on requirements of a case plan.
Local WAGES coalitions may limit a participant's weekly work requirement to the minimum required to meet federal work activity requirements in lieu of the level defined in subsection (2). The department and local WAGES coalitions may develop screening and prioritization procedures within service districts or within counties based on the allocation of resources, the availability of community resources, or the work activity needs of the service district.
(10) USE OF CONTRACTS.--The department and local WAGES coalitions shall provide work activities, training, and other services, as appropriate, through contracts. In contracting for work activities, training, or services, the following applies:
(a) All education and training provided under the WAGES Program shall be provided through agreements with regional workforce development boards.
(b) A contract must be performance-based. Wherever possible, payment shall be tied to performance outcomes that include factors such as, but not limited to, job entry, job entry at a target wage, and job retention, rather than tied to completion of training or education or any other phase of the program participation process.
(c) A contract may include performance-based incentive payments that may vary according to the extent to which the participant is more difficult to place. Contract payments may be weighted proportionally to reflect the extent to which the participant has limitations associated with the long-term receipt of welfare and difficulty in sustaining employment. The factors may include the extent of prior receipt of welfare, lack of employment experience, lack of education, lack of job skills, and other factors determined appropriate by the department.
(d) Notwithstanding the exemption from the competitive sealed bid requirements provided in s. 287.057(3)(f) for certain contractual services, each contract awarded under this chapter must be awarded on the basis of a competitive sealed bid, except for a contract with a governmental entity as determined by the department.
(e) The department and the local WAGES coalitions may contract with commercial, charitable, or religious organizations. A contract must comply with federal requirements with respect to nondiscrimination and other requirements that safeguard the rights of participants. Services may be provided under contract, certificate, voucher, or other form of disbursement.
(f) The administrative costs associated with a contract for services provided under this section may not exceed the applicable administrative cost ceiling established in federal law. An agency or entity that is awarded a contract under this section may not charge more than 7 percent of the value of the contract for administration, unless an exception is approved by the local WAGES coalition. A list of any exceptions approved must be submitted to the WAGES Program State Board of Directors for review, and the board may rescind approval of the exception. The WAGES Program State Board of Directors may also approve exceptions for any statewide contract for services provided under this section.
(g) Local WAGES coalitions may enter into contracts to provide short-term work experience for the chronically unemployed as provided in this section.
(h) A tax-exempt organization under s. 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 which receives funds under this chapter must disclose receipt of federal funds on any advertising, promotional, or other material in accordance with federal requirements.
(11) PROTECTIONS FOR PARTICIPANTS.--Each participant is subject to the same health, safety, and nondiscrimination standards established under federal, state, or local laws that otherwise apply to other individuals engaged in similar activities who are not participants in the WAGES Program.
(12) PROTECTION FOR CURRENT EMPLOYEES.--In establishing and contracting for work experience and community service activities, other work experience activities, on-the-job training, subsidized employment, and work supplementation under the WAGES Program, an employed worker may not be displaced, either completely or partially. A WAGES participant may not be assigned to an activity or employed in a position if the employer has created the vacancy or terminated an existing employee without good cause in order to fill that position with a WAGES Program participant.
(13) CONTRACTS FOR VOCATIONAL ASSESSMENTS AND WORK EVALUATIONS.--Vocational assessments or work evaluations by the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation pursuant to this section shall be performed under contract with the local WAGES coalitions.
