Employment would be considered “stopgap” if the salary were substantially below the salary of the individual's primary occupation and/or if he is working substantially under the skill level of his customary occupation. There may be times when stopgap employment provides a self-sufficient wage, e.g., contract employment of employment obtained through a temporary employment service agency. Such employment would not change the individual’s dislocation worker status. Stopgap determination must be made on a case-by-case basis and consider an individual’s personal, family, financial, and employment situation. Individuals engaged in stopgap employment are reported as not employed. 47 Workforce Investment Act National Emergency Grant Dislocated Worker Eligibility: National Emergency Grant (NEG) Dislocated Worker: • Limited to dislocated workers with special consideration for those experiencing prolonged unemployment (21.5 weeks) • Greatest barriers to reemployment. • For eligibility guidelines, see WIA Directive IS#22-09. 48 Workforce Investment Act CalWORKS & Vendorized Eligibility: California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) recipients: • The applicant must be on a CalWORKs (CW) Welfare To Work (WTW) grant. • OJT/SE service providers must submit eligibility requests to the SETA DHA Liaison who coordinates with the County of Sacramento DHA Liaison for CalWORKs eligibility determination and OJT/SE approval. • For eligibility guidelines, please see SETA Directive IS#22-09. 49 50 Customer Flow Check SacWorks first before working with an individual.

Critical Occupational Clusters Sacramento Works, Inc., the local Workforce Investment Board, has taken on the role of engaging the business community by assessing the regional labor market and identifying critical occupational clusters in the Sacramento region, and developing a plan to train workers for the critical occupations. Sacramento Works, Inc. has identified nine “Critical Occupational Clusters” in our area. These seven clusters represent those occupations that are most consistent with our goal of helping job seekers, through the one-stop system, to find long term, career oriented employment. The following information provides a brief description of the “Critical Occupational Clusters”. OJT/SE Providers must target SETA-identified Critical Industry-related occupations and/or industries with employment opportunities available in the local area as reflected in the Critical Occupational Clusters Report. The current critical occupation information can be found at CareerGPS.com at http://www.careergps.com/cluster_occupation_forecast_data.asp (SETA Policy). To access the Critical Occupational Cluster report, use the web address indicated above. ADMINISTRATIVE and SUPPORT SERVICES The Administrative and Support Services occupational cluster is comprised of a diverse group of occupations. In addition to occupations directly related to office administration, clerical support, and finance and insurance. Also included in this broad group are occupations that provide a wide variety of support-related activities and services, including firefighting and investigation and security related occupations. AGRICULTURE, FOOD, and HOSPITALITY The Agriculture, Food, and Hospitality occupational cluster is primarily comprised of occupations involved in providing food production, food service and accommodations related activities as well as occupations providing customer service, recreation, and entertainment related activities. CONSTRUCTION and CLEAN ENERGY TECHNOLOGY The Construction and Clean Energy occupational cluster is primarily comprised of occupations involved in the construction and design of buildings. Also included in this group are specialty trade contractors (e.g. Electricians, Painters, Carpet Installers, etc.), Cabinetmakers, Construction and Building Inspectors, Cost Estimators, and Welders. Many of the occupations in this occupational cluster are also directly related to clean energy technology. HEALTH SERVICES and LIFE SCIENCES The Health Services and Life Sciences occupational cluster is comprised of occupations employed by hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, physician’s offices, dental offices, outpatient care centers, and medical/diagnostic laboratories. This group also includes biomedical and life science related businesses. INFORMATION and COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY The Information and Communications Technology occupational cluster is comprised of occupations involved in the design, production, and administration of communications and computer hardware and software systems and networks. As with Administrative and Support Services related occupations, many of the occupations in this category are employed, to some degree, across most industries. INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, and REPAIR The Installation, Maintenance, and Repair occupational cluster is primarily comprised of occupations involved in restoring machinery, equipment, and other products to working order as well as occupations that typically provide general or routine maintenance or service on products to ensure that they work efficiently and to prevent breakdown and unnecessary repairs. TRANSPORTATION, PRODUCTION, and MANUFACTURING The Transportation, Production, and Manufacturing occupational cluster is comprised of a diverse group of occupations directly related to the actual manufacturing and/or production of goods, as well as the manufacturing of industrial machinery, recycling, and green energy manufacturing efforts. Also included in this category are occupations related to the storage, distribution, and transportation of manufactured goods. Many of the occupations in this occupational cluster are also directly related to clean energy technology. 65 Critical Occupational Clusters Definition of Critical Occupational Cluster New Jobs must be 40 or more. The hourly wage must be $10.00 or more. (Career GPS must be scanned into the SacWORKs Vault.) 66 Critical Occupational Clusters Continued…. 90% of OJT/SE enrollments must be identified in the Critical Occupational Cluster list. Only 10% can be a non-critical occupational job, justification required. If more than 10% of OJT/SE enrollments are noncritical occupational jobs, the OJT/SE program can be put on Corrective Action. Justification required. For specific questions regarding the Critical Occupational Cluster, contact John Harden at 67 (916) 263-3893. Program Operators must target employment opportunities which are identified as high demand occupations. There are seven categories listed on the Critical Occupational Clusters list. Program Operators are required to verify the occupation is on the critical occupational cluster prior to enrollment.
