Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the National Evaluation of the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Program, this report provides information about the characteristics and early program experiences of workers eligible for TAA under the 2002 Trade Act. Information was collected via a telephone survey of a nationally representative sample of workers in 26 states (covering 90 percent of TAA eligible workers). Interviews were conducted both with participants in TAA and with "nonparticipants" who were eligible for, but did not receive, TAA services or benefits. Compared with other displaced manufacturing workers, TAA-eligible workers on average were more highly paid and were more likely to be full-time workers with long tenure at their previous job. Only half of TAA-eligible workers participated in the program with participation tending to be higher among women, older workers, and workers with less education. Almost all (98 percent) TAA participants received a Trade Readjustment Allowance (TRA) providing weekly income support, but only 60 percent of TAA participants enrolled in training. Receipt of the Health Coverage Tax Credit, a new provision under the 2002 Act, was uncommon. Only 14 percent of TAA participants used this credit. The participation rate was also low for another new component of the 2002 bill, the Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA) program, which provided a subsidy for individuals taking a job paying less than their former job. Only four percent of participants age 50 and older used ATAA, due primarily to difficulties in finding a job and its less attractive benefits as compared to TRA.

Book excerpt: The Trade Act of 2002 significantly amended the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program which provides extensive training and benefits to dislocated workers certified as trade-affected. The Act created a single program (repealing the North American Free Trade Agreement-TAA program), mandated that certification of workers' petitions occur in 40 (down from 60) days by the U.S. Department of Labor, and instituted new deadlines for enrolling in training by 8 weeks after certification or 16 weeks after job separation. Among other changes, the law also opened eligibility to secondary workers, offered a tax credit to partially cover health insurance, created the Alternative TAA (ATAA) program to provide compensation to older participants who obtain lower-paid work but no training. To understand the issues and challenges in implementing the Trade Act of 2002, site visits were conducted in May and June of 2004 in 12 state agencies (selected randomly proportionate to size of states' TAA activity) and in 12 local offices. This report is part of a longer-term project to conduct a national net-impact evaluation of the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program.

Book Synopsis Rapid Response and TAA by : Jeffrey Salzman
Download or read book Rapid Response and TAA written by Jeffrey Salzman and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report, based on site visits to 48 One-Stop Career Centers in 23 states conducted from mid-2004 to mid-2006, is part of a longer-term project to conduct a national, net-impact evaluation of the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program. The report summarizes findings on the relationship between TAA and Rapid Response, both of which are designed to assist dislocated workers. Under Rapid Response, states must coordinate workforce and other community services when plants close or other workforce dislocations occur. It is usually the first point of contact between the workforce investment system and affected employers and workers. TAA provides training and income maintenance to certain dislocated workers who have suffered job losses because of increased imports or plant re-locations. Its benefits are typically substantially greater than those from other public workforce programs. States recognize the importance of strong linkages between these programs, and nearly all locate them in the same agency, reflecting a broad national trend to consolidate workforce programs. Seven of these states have established a further basis for coordination by locating TAA staff in the same organizational unit as Rapid Response, typically a Dislocated Worker Unit. As part of all Rapid Response events, Rapid Response staff inquire about potential trade impacts when they first contact employers and unions. If no petition for TAA certification has been filed and there is a chance that trade contributed to the job losses, the Rapid Response team always suggests that the employer or union file a petition or the Rapid Response team files a petition itself. The amount of information provided to workers during Rapid Response varies depending on whether a certification for TAA has occurred or, at least, is deemed likely, in which case much more information about TAA is provided than otherwise. In any case, Rapid Response staff are very focused on connecting workers to the broader array of services available from the One-Stop delivery system, in keeping with the principle that workers should be given prompt access to One-Stop core and intensive services.
