Yolo County Workforce Investment Board

Conference Attendance and Travel Policy

Purpose We encourage Yolo County Workforce Investment Board members to

attend events that will enhance their knowledge of local and State WIA issues. Everyone can and should take advantage of the workshops and opportunities for networking to further their ability to contribute to the board's effectiveness.

The purpose of these guidelines is to give all WIB members and/or Youth Council members, especially private industry members, an opportunity to attend statewide and regional conferences and training, as funds are available. The WIB chair will encourage and seek volunteers, approve requests, and make recommendations for participants with the concurrence and advice of the Executive Committee for WIB.

Goals The purpose and goals of conference or training attendance include:

• Opportunity for private sector members to meet colleagues • Facilitate effective participation in the statewide WIA system • Listen • Translate issues into policies for the WIB • Create and enhance partnerships • External Networking • Internal networking • Politicking • Collaborating

There are two types of activities:

1 - Conferences 2 - Training Usually sponsored by the CaliforniaWorkforce Association (CWA), USDOL, or National Association of Workforce Boards (NAWB)

Usually sponsored by California Employment Development Department (EDD), or CWA.

1 October 13, 2009

6

Examples of conferences that may be approved

♦ CWA's Annual Policy & Legislative Conference ♦ U.S.DOL - Journey to Performance Excellence Conference ♦ CWA Meeting of the Minds in Monterey ♦ SACOG Regional Forum ♦ CWA Annual Spring Conference ♦ California Workforce Association Youth Conference ♦ NAWB Forum - Washington, D.C. ♦ CALED ♦ CWA Annual Youth Conference

Guidelines Conferences and training should be attended that have a defined benefit for

the WIB or the Yolo Council and workforce issues in Yolo County.

Each attendee or group of attendees will be encouraged to provide a written and/or an oral report with recommendations at the next WIB meeting following the conference or training.

To encourage a broad participation, generally a member should be allowed one conference or training per year and attendance at no two of the same conference. However, there will be circumstances when an individual attending consecutive conferences will be of benefit to the WIB.

There may be occasions when sharing costs will be necessary particularly with public agencies that have a duality of purpose in conference or training attendance and participation. It is expected that public agencies will fund their staff's attendance when it is to the agency's benefit.

Out of State travel to conferences will generally be reserved for the Chair or the Vice-Chairs or others as appropriate.

2 October 13, 2009

Process for Handling WIB Member Travel Requests

Procedure for Conference Approval

A. WIB members considering attending an event on behalf of the Workforce Investment Board must submit a written request to WIB staff at least 14 days prior to the next WIB Executive Committee meeting.

B. WIB members are encouraged to submit requests well in advance of the actual event. Some conferences require a lead time of at least 90 - 120 days for the most cost effective registration timing. Discounts are often offered for earliest registration.

C. WIB staff will contact the Fiscal Agent (DESS) to make a determination of availability of budgeted funds prior to the WIB Executive Committee.

D. The request, along with information regarding availability of funds, will be submitted to the WIB Executive Committee for consideration.

E. If WIB Executive Committee recommends the request be granted, DESS will finalize travel arrangements as the fiscal agent for WIA funds, based upon the funds available.

F. The conference attendee may obtain and submit a Travel/Training Request Form from WIB/DESS staff for assistance in arranging the most efficient travel date and to confirm airline and hotel reservations.

G. If the event is within driving distance; the Fiscal Agent will pay only the Conference registration for the duration of the event.

H. When the Conference is not within driving distance, generally participants will stay at the conference hotel. Arrangements will be made by WIB/DESS staff according to County administrative requirements regarding air travel, car rental, meals, lodging, etc. with the approval of the Assistant Director or Director of DESS.

I. DESS staff will, as appropriate, provide E-Ticket arrangements and reservation confirmation numbers.

J. Following the event, the participant will submit a completed Travel Claim form, along with receipts and mileage records to the Fiscal Division of DESS for reimbursement of costs incurred. Any questions can be directed to WIB/DESS staff.

Expiration Date: 6/17/15 69:184:df:16266 TO: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SUBJECT: UI PHONE CENTER HOURS TO BE REDUCED TO 8 AM - 12 NOON The purpose of this Information Notice is to inform the workforce community that due to limited staffing caused by federal funding reductions, starting May 20, 2013, the EDD Unemployment Insurance (UI) program will only accept phone calls from UI customers from 8 a.m. to 12 noon, Monday through Friday, except State holidays. This new schedule will allow the UI program to more effectively use their limited resources to concentrate on phone service in the morning when call volumes are at their highest, and enable staff to focus on other UI related workload in the afternoon. By directing all available staff to answer phone calls in the morning, the UI program expects to meet or exceed their current customer service levels. During the afternoon hours, the One-Stop Career Center Offices may experience an increase in UI customer traffic and should be prepared to bridge them to available online resources. Below is a list of self-help alternatives presently available: • eApply4UI to file a new claim or reopen a claim for benefits online. • EDD Web-Certsm and EDD Tele-Certsm for certifying for their benefits every two

weeks instead of relying on paper forms through the mail. • The EDD website to find UI information, such as expanded frequently asked

Expiration Date: 6/28/15 69:184:tr:16288 TO: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SUBJECT: PRIVATE POSTSECONDARY EDUCATIONAL ENTITIES MUST

REGISTER WITH THE BPPE The purpose of this Information Notice is to inform Local Workforce Investment Boards (local boards) that the Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) Act of 2009, requires all private postsecondary educational entities to be registered and receive approval to operate from the BPPE. There are some exemptions, but those are reviewed on a case-by-case basis and must be granted by BPPE. The regulations which implement this legislation can be found at Title 5 California Code of Regulations Division 7.5. Private postsecondary training and/or educational providers receiving Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funding will be required to be registered with the BPPE or receive an exemption from them to remain listed on the Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL), required under WIA Section 122. In an effort to assist the local boards and ensure they are referring clients for training services to private postsecondary training providers that are properly authorized to operate in California, the BPPE has made it simple to locate current and prospective programs in its approved program database at their school index database. We encourage you to check the BPPE database for those providers that you have recommended for inclusion on the ETPL or use to provide training services to your clients. The California Workforce Investment Board (State Board) has convened a workgroup of local board directors, workforce agency directors, education entities, BPPE and others to amend the ETPL policy to ensure that all private postsecondary training providers have registered with BPPE. This revised policy will also address the process by which the state or local board may remove a training provider that does not meet certain state requirements or established performance standards. If you have any questions, contact your Regional Advisor or Daniel X. Patterson at [email protected]. /S/ JOSE LUIS MARQUEZ, Chief

Expiration Date: 6/30/14 50:10:gp:16327 TO: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SUBJECT: FORMULA RAPID RESPONSE FUNDING AWARDS This Information Bulletin announces the formula-based Rapid Response funding provided to Local Workforce Investment Areas (LWIA) for the period from July 1, 2013, through June 30, 2014. The attachment shows the total funding amount for each LWIA in the right hand column. Each award of funds should be used to defray the cost of required and allowable Rapid Response activities in response to layoffs, business closures, and natural disasters. Expenditures for activities described in Sections 665.310, 665.320, and 667.262(b) of the federal regulations (20 CFR Part 652) will be reimbursed under the formula Rapid Response grant code. Other activities not described in these sections must be paid with other Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds or with non-WIA funds. The formula Rapid Response funds will be placed in either grant code 540 or 541. Consistent with your other allocations, these funds will not be available until the State budget is in place. As referenced in Directive WSD12-7, this funding allows for the provision of direct services to dislocated workers and may be used for either Rapid Response or Additional Assistance activities. Participants receiving Additional Assistance services must be enrolled in grant code 241. Funds used for training services when serving Additional Assistance participants qualify as “leveraged resources” which will assist local areas in meeting the 25 percent training expenditure requirement as described in Directive WSD11-9. If you have any questions, please contact your Regional Advisor. /S/ JOSÉ LUIS MÁRQUEZ, Chief Workforce Services Division Attachment

69:175:df:16254 TO: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SUBJECT: 70 PERCENT LLSIL AND POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Purpose:

This directive issues the 70 percent Lower Living Standard Income Level (LLSIL) for 2013 published by the Secretary of Labor in the Federal Register on March 19, 2013. It also issues the 2013 poverty guidelines published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in the Federal Register on January 24, 2013. Scope:

The LLSIL and poverty guidelines are used to establish low-income status for Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Title I programs. Local Workforce Investment Areas (LWIA) use the LLSIL to determine eligibility for youth, eligibility for employed adults for certain services, self-sufficiency, and eligibility for the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. The LWIAs should consult the WIA and its regulations, and preamble for more specific guidance. Effective Date:

The 2013 LLSIL and 2013 poverty guidelines became effective on their dates of publication in the Federal Register, March 19, 2013 and January 24, 2013, respectively. REFERENCES:

• WIA Section 101(24), 101(25), 127(b)(2)(C), 132(b)(1)(B)(v)(IV), and 134(d)(3)(A)(ii) • Title 20 Code of Federal Regulations (Title 20 CFR) Section 663.230 • Federal Register, Volume 78, Number 53, WIA; LLSIL (March 19, 2013) • Federal Register, Volume 78, Number 16, Annual Update of the HHS Poverty

STATE-IMPOSED REQUIREMENTS:

This directive contains one State-imposed requirement, which is in bold italic print. FILING INSTRUCTIONS:

This directive supersedes Workforce Services Directive WSD12-4, dated August 3, 2012, and finalizes Workforce Services Draft Directive WSDD-82, issued for comment

38

of 5

on April 16, 2013. There were no comments received during the draft comment period. Retain this directive until further notice. BACKGROUND:

The WIA Section 101(25)(B) sets the criteria LWIAs use in determining whether an individual is a low-income individual. This criteria includes two sets of data: the poverty guidelines, as published by HHS, and 70 percent of the LLSIL, as determined by the Secretary of Labor. The LWIAs use the higher of these two measures to establish low-income status for eligibility purposes of WIA Title I programs. The WIA requires annual revisions to both sets of data. All LWIAs use the same poverty guidelines. However, the LLSIL identifies maximum qualifying income levels for residents in either of two broad geographic designations: metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. Metropolitan income levels apply to residents living within Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA) as defined by the Office of Management and Budget. Nonmetropolitan income levels apply to places with populations under 50,000. In addition to the broad metropolitan and nonmetropolitan designations, the Department of Labor identifies three MSAs in California that have unique LLSILs: the San Diego MSA, the Los Angeles/Riverside/Orange County MSA, and the San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose MSA. POLICY AND PROCEDURES:

1. Select the appropriate table for use by your LWIA from the five tables in the Attachment. (In those instances where a LWIA encompasses both metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, the State has designated the higher of the LLSIL figures for use within the entire LWIA.)

2. Use the higher of either the LLSIL or the poverty guideline for the appropriate family size to determine low-income status. A comparison of the applicant’s actual family income during the six-month income determination period with the six-month figures on the charts enables the reviewer to immediately determine income status.

3. The WIA, together with Title 20 CFR 663.230, requires local boards to set the criteria for determining whether employment leads to self-sufficiency. At a minimum, such criteria must provide that self-sufficiency means employment that pays at least 100 percent of the LLSIL established for a LWIA.

ACTION:

Notify all affected staff of the changes to the LLSIL and poverty guidelines in this directive. INQUIRIES:

If you have any questions, please contact your Regional Advisor at (916) 654-7799. /S/ MICHAEL EVASHENK, Chief

ATTACHMENT

70 PERCENT LLSIL AND POVERTY GUIDELINES FOR 2013 The Lower Living Standard Income Level (LLSIL) and poverty guidelines are used to establish low-income status for Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Title I programs. Local Workforce Investment Areas (LWIA) use the LLSIL to determine eligibility for youth, eligibility for employed adults for certain services, self-sufficiency, and eligibility for the Work Opportunity Tax Credit. The LWIAs should consult the WIA and its regulations, and preamble for more specific guidance. Tables 1 through 5 show the 70 percent LLSIL and the poverty guidelines for western metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, and for three specific Metropolitan Statistical Areas in California. In addition, each LLSIL table includes the 100 percent LLSIL that establishes the Department of Labor’s minimum self-sufficiency levels. The last column in each table shows the amount to be added to the figure for a family of six for each additional family member. Since the income received during the six-month period immediately prior to the individual's application for WIA funded services is used for income determination, each chart below shows the six-month, as well as the annual, figures for each family size. A comparison of the applicant's actual family income during the six-month income determination period with the six-month figures on the charts enables the reviewer to immediately determine an individual’s eligibility. Effective Dates: LLSIL: March 29, 2013

69:175:df:16322 TO: WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY SUBJECT: SALARY AND BONUS LIMITATIONS FOR 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Purpose: This directive issues the 2013 salary and bonus limitation for individuals compensated by monies appropriated to the Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA) funded programs. Scope: This directive applies to all subrecipients expending Workforce Investment Act (WIA) program funds. Effective Date: The 2013 salary rates for executive level employees became effective January 1, 2013. REFERENCES: • Public Law 109-234 • DOL Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 05-06, Implementing the

Salary and Bonus Limitations in Public Law 109-234 (August 15, 2006) STATE-IMPOSED REQUIREMENTS: This directive contains no State-imposed requirements. FILING INSTRUCTIONS: This directive supersedes Workforce Services Directive WSD11-7, dated March 6, 2012, and finalizes Workforce Services Draft Directive WSDD-85, issued for comment on May 17, 2013. There were no comments received during the draft comment period. Retain this directive until further notice.

BACKGROUND: On June 15, 2006, President Bush signed into law an emergency supplemental appropriations bill, Public Law 109-234. Section 7013 of this public law limits salary and bonus compensation for individuals who are paid by funds appropriated to the ETA and provided to recipients and subrecipients. Specifically, Section 7013 states:

“None of the funds appropriated in Public Law 109-149 or prior acts under the heading ‘Employment and Training’ that are available for expenditure on or after the date of enactment of this section shall be used by a recipient or subrecipient of such funds to pay the salary and bonuses of an individual, either as direct costs or indirect costs, at a rate in excess of Executive Level II, except as provided for under Section 101 of Public Law 109-149. This limit shall not apply to vendors providing goods and services as defined in the Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133. Where States are recipients of such funds, States may establish a lower limit for salaries and bonuses of those receiving salaries and bonuses from subrecipients of such funds, taking into account factors including the relative cost-of-living in the State, the compensation levels for comparable State or local government employees, and the size of the organization that administers federal programs involved including Employment and Training Administration programs.”

Subsequently, on August 15, 2006, the ETA issued TEGL 05-06. This TEGL informs states and other ETA-funded recipients and subrecipients of limitations on salary and bonus payments that can be made with funds appropriated to the ETA. Specifically, this TEGL provides the workforce investment system with information on programs affected by this provision; effective dates and funding cycles; covered individuals and transactions; application of the limitation; and related grant and contract modifications. POLICY AND PROCEDURES: Public Law 109-234 sets the limit on salary and bonus compensation for individuals who are paid by funds appropriated to ETA funded programs at a rate equivalent to no more than Executive Level II. A salary table providing this rate is listed on the Federal Office of Personnel Management website www.opm.gov under Policy, Pay and Leave. These levels are adjusted annually. Currently, the salary and bonus limits are frozen at 2010 levels. Therefore, effective January 1, 2013, the salary and bonus limit is set at $179,700 until otherwise advised. The Public Law 109-234 limitation does not apply to benefits that are not salary and bonuses. For example, fringe benefits, insurance premiums, or pension plans paid by a subrecipient are not included in this calculation. Per the DOL ETA Region 6 Office, the salary and bonus limit applies to both the gross amount of salary and bonus, and to the rate at which the salary is paid. As a result, for individuals who do not work full time on ETA funded projects or who are only employed part time or part of the year, the salary and bonus limit will be prorated based on the amount of time the individual is dedicated to the ETA funded grant. The following are examples provided by the DOL ETA Region 6 which illustrate how the limitations are calculated based on salary and bonus levels, as well as the rate at which they are paid:

Example 1: An Executive Director’s W-2 for 2013 includes $150,000 of gross compensation. He worked part time [.50 Full Time Equivalent (FTE)] all year. One hundred percent of the Executive Director’s salary costs benefited ETA-funded programs. 2013 Salary and Bonus Limit $179,700 Salary eligible for the salary and bonus limit .50 FTE x 100% of salary = 50% (Calculation: $179,700 x 50%) $89,850 Total gross compensation $150,000 Salary costs benefitting ETA-funded programs (Calculation: $150,000 x 100%) $150,000 Salary in excess of the salary and bonus limit (Calculation: $150,000 - $89,850) $60,150 In this scenario, the Executive Director’s salary is eligible for 50 percent of the annual salary and bonus limit (.50 FTE x 100% of his salary benefited ETA-funded programs). Therefore, $89,850 ($179,700 x 50% = $89,850) of the salary may be paid using ETA appropriated funds or other federal funds. The remainder of the salary, $60,150 ($150,000 - $89,850 = $60,150), is in excess of the allowable 2013 salary and bonus limit and must be paid using non-federal funds.

Example 2: An Executive Director’s W-2 for 2013 includes $150,000 of gross compensation. He worked part time (.50 FTE) all year. Seventy percent of the Executive Director’s salary costs benefited ETA-funded programs.

2013 Salary and Bonus Limit $179,700 Salary eligible for the salary and bonus limit .50 FTE x 70% of salary = 35% (Calculation: $179,700 x 35%) $62,895 Total gross compensation $150,000 Salary costs benefitting ETA-funded programs (Calculation: $150,000 x 70%) $105,500 Salary in excess of the salary and bonus limit (Calculation: $105,500 - $62,895) $42,105

In this scenario, the Executive Director’s salary is eligible for 35 percent of the annual salary and bonus limit (.50 FTE x 70% of his salary benefited ETA-funded programs). Therefore, $62,895 ($179,700 x 35% = $62,895) of the salary may be paid using ETA appropriated funds or other federal funds. Since 70 percent of the Executive Director’s salary costs benefited ETA-funded programs, the amount in

excess of the allowable 2013 salary and bonus limit, $42,105 ($150,000 x 70% = $105,500 - $62,895 = $42,105), must be paid using non-federal funds. Example 3: An Executive Director’s W-2 for 2013 includes $200,000 of gross compensation. He worked full time all year. Forty percent of the Executive Director’s salary costs benefited ETA-funded programs.

2013 Salary and Bonus Limit $179,700 Salary eligible for the salary and bonus limit (Calculation: $179,700 x 40%) $71,880 Total gross compensation $200,000 Salary costs benefitting ETA-funded programs (Calculation: $200,000 x 40%) $80,000 Salary in excess of the salary and bonus limit (Calculation: $80,000 - $71,880) $8,120

In this scenario, the Executive Director’s salary is eligible for 40 percent of the annual salary and bonus limit (40% of his salary benefited ETA-funded programs). Therefore, $71,880 ($179,700 x 40% = $71,880) of the salary may be paid using ETA appropriated funds or other federal funds. Since 40 percent of the Executive Director’s salary costs benefited ETA-funded programs, the amount in excess of the allowable 2013 salary and bonus limit, $8,120 ($200,000 x 40% = $80,000 - $71,880 = $8,120), must be paid using non-federal funds.
