  10-c.  Workforce  guidance and information for women initiative. 1.
  The department shall provide  guidance  to  local  workforce  investment
  boards and staff, to enable them to better educate and inform both women
  and   men   about   higher   paying  jobs  and  careers  including  jobs
  traditionally dominated by men.  Such  guidance  shall  promote  program
  services for job seekers that provide:
(a)  current  information about compensation for jobs and careers that
  offer high earning  potential  including  jobs  that  are  traditionally
  dominated by men;
(b)  counseling,  skills  development and training that encourage both
  women and men to seek employment in such jobs;
(c) referrals to employers offering such jobs; and
(d) current local labor market information regarding the  gender  wage
  gap  and specific self-sufficiency rates for families living and working
  in that local labor market.
2. The commissioner shall prepare and  submit  to  the  governor,  the
  temporary  president  of  the senate, and the speaker of the assembly an
  annual evaluation report of the initiative no later than January  first,
  two  thousand  eighteen,  and  every  year  thereafter. The report shall
  include:
(a) how many women were referred to counseling or  skills  development
  and  training  for  jobs  and careers that offer high earning potential,
  including jobs traditionally dominated by men;
(b) how many women were referred to such jobs;
(c) the ratio of women to men in such jobs  and  any  change  in  that
  ratio from the previous year; and
(d) any other information the commissioner deems relevant.
