Work supplementation definition
Work supplementation means an activity in the unpaid employment component that is up to six months of work-site training provided by an employer. The component and activity are both called "work supplementation". In "work supplementation", the Department subsidizes the wages of the participant by providing up to $200 per month to the employer.¶
Work supplementation or “grant diversion” means the use of all or a portion of a participant's cash assistance grant and food assistance grant as a wage supplement to an employer. Such a supplement shall be limited to a maximum period of twelve (12) months. An employer must agree to continue the employment of the participant as part of the regular work force, beyond the supplement period, if the participant demonstrates satisfactory performance. The cash assistance case may close without affecting the validity of the employer agreement.
