Job Find Programs

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses different initiatives that could be taken to reduce unemployment rate. It also looks at how current methods such as over payments of unemployment insurance benefits are not particularly effective.

From the Paper:

"The Department of Labor was designed to provide benefits to those who had been working and then lost their jobs. For the past few decades the department has done more than just pay out benefits by way of a weekly check until the recipient either got a new position or their money ran out. The department has offered job programs designed to help the recipients of benefits locate and obtain new employment. The job programs are successful for certain segments of the population but miss the mark when it comes to the people in the lower socio-economic segment of society. "
