From the Paper:

"Temporary employment programs are put into place to help young people gain "practical experience working for agencies." As early as 1960 a temporary labor program was established on public lands to employ youths in maintenance and administrative positions in New York City. The assistance of youth labor not only helped youths find practical uses for classroom learned skills, it also facilitated the completion of many outstanding projects. The Mound City Group National Monument utilized temporary employment in 1967 to enhance the existing administrative and maintenance staffs (Hopewell, 2002). Use of temporary employment became much more widespread in the 1970's, when Manpower, Inc. came about. The temporary agency augmented maintenance operations for organizations such as Mound City Group by as much as 2,871 man-hours (Hopewell, 2002)."
