2005 California Unemployment Insurance Code Sections 16005 Article 2. Programs

16005.  Programs which shall be considered for provision by eligible
service delivery areas pursuant to the state's implementation of the
federal Job Training Partnership Act of 1982 shall include, but not
be limited to, the following:
   (a) Programs which increase the involvement of the private sector
in training older workers, through use of business and industry
facilities, equipment, and trainers in preparing older individuals
for employment.
   (b) Programs which communicate among private sector employers
effective methods for training and hiring older workers, including
materials suitable for use by small businesses.
   (c) Utilization of ridesharing and other transportation
alternatives to expand the range of employment opportunities
available to older workers.
   (d) New approaches to the use of alternate work schedules to
expand private sector employment opportunities for older workers.
These alternatives might include part-time work, flexible scheduling,
or job sharing.
   (e) Implementation of programs at the worksite or senior service
site which foster sharing of skills, knowledge, and capabilities
among seniors and youth.
   (f) Projects which involve older workers and youth jointly in
employment and training opportunities while also delivering necessary
community, human, and personal services.
   (g) Programs developing existing resources, such as aging network
focal points, which have high involvement of senior citizens as
workers, volunteers, and participants, and which foster either of the
following:
   (1) An increased ability on the part of these programs to train,
employ, serve, and provide skills to older persons.
   (2) An increase in contact and cooperation between these programs
and the private sector.
   (h) Programs that train older workers to meet the growing demand
for respite care by families caring for frail elderly or disabled
adults in the home.  "Respite care" for purposes of this subdivision,
means intermittent or regularly scheduled substitute care for adults
with chronic physical or mental limitations with the primary purpose
of relieving the caregivers and helping to support them in their
caregiving responsibilities.
   (i) On-the-job training vouchers which offset the added costs of
hiring and training older workers.
   (j) Additional innovative approaches which encourage greater
private sector participation in providing employment and training
opportunities for older workers and which promote more stable
employment for these workers.
   (k) Programs fostering coordination with other resources, public
and private, enhancing employment and training opportunities for
older Californians.
