Current Narrative:
Wagner-Peyser and WorkOne RESEA staff facilitate the administration and initial review of the UI eligibility assessment/working test for claimants. Wagner-Peyser and WorkOne staff refer specific issue types to UI adjudication, when necessary, on those occasions when the automated UI issue system may not identify said issue.
WorkOne staff conduct one-on-one meetings with claimants to develop and update their IRP and provide reemployment services and referrals to training programs based on an individual's needs, interests and aspirations, and barriers to employment. WorkOne staff also encourage UI claimants prior to or during their RESEA program to engage in other workforce programs, as appropriate.
