Book excerpt: This document records the oral and written testimony of persons who testified before or prepared reports for a Congressional hearing on the usefulness of the JOBS (Job Opportunities and Basic Skills Program). Witnesses included persons who had participated in the programs as well as state and local administrators of JOBS programs, national organizations, and Congressional representatives. Testimony showed that the JOBS program had produced some useful results in training and placing people in jobs. Witnesses stressed that such efforts were successful only when they provided child care and job placement, especially if attention was paid to the types of jobs in which people were placed. Witnesses stressed the importance of the Earned Income Tax Credit and the need to pass some type of health care legislation for the working poor so that they are better off working than being on welfare. Problems with the JOBS program included the following: lack of money, resulting in long waiting lists; emphasis on participation rather than on outcomes; and lack of good of jobs available for people who were trained.

Book excerpt: This document records the oral and written testimony concerning the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) Act from a panel of witnesses representing health and human services and welfare departments in New Jersey, California, Wisconsin, and of program heads for employment development in those states. The witnesses, although having a variety of viewpoints, agreed generally on the following: an emphasis on job placement is necessary to reduce welfare rolls; short-term training should be given; and services such as child care are needed if parents are to obtain and keep jobs. The participants also expressed a need for states to have more flexibility and less paperwork in their JOBS programs so that they could respond to local conditions. Some panelists were more optimistic than others that welfare recipients could be phased off welfare rolls and into work within 2 years, as called for in recent proposals. (KC)
