The attached table shows each state's ALP associated with its CY 2006 TUR and its
percent of claimants receiving a first payment who are not exempt from work search.
Based on reemployment rates for first pays made during CY 2006, 15 states
(highlighted) would fall short of their appropriate ALP.
7. Administering the Reemployment Core Measure. This measure differs from the
typical UI Performs core measure in two ways.
First, results for the other UI Performs core measures are based on the
performance period of April – March. Because the reemployment ALP relies on
wage-record crossmatches, states will not be able to report their reemployment
data for the April- March performance period until September. This is too late to
be used in development of the State Quality Service Plans (SQSP) for the
following fiscal year, which begins in early June each year.
Second, all other core measures have only one ALP, while for this measure a
matrix of ALPs is proposed.
In light of these differences, we plan to administer the Facilitation of Reemployment
core measure as follows:
Period of Performance. The SQSP performance period will be the calendar year.
That is, it will be based on the number of claimants receiving first payments
during the 12 month period ending in September who are reemployed one
quarter later, during the 12 months ending in December. These data will be
available in mid-to-late June, early enough for the SQSP process.
Performance Against ALP. In May, OWS will provide states with information
through the Regional Offices on reemployment rates for the period ending
September 30 as an advance indication of performance. At that time, OWS will
also provide each state’s TUR for the calendar year, and the proportion of first
payments that are nonexempt from work search for the year ending June 30 of
the previous year. This will inform states of their expected ALPs for the SQSP
performance period. A state will not know its actual ALP until it can combine its
percent of nonexempt claimants from the ETA 9047 report, with its calendar year
TUR.
A state reporting a reemployment rate below its ALP will be expected to prepare
and include a Corrective Action Plan in its SQSP for the succeeding fiscal year.
