Budget Function: Education, Manpower, and Sccial Services: Training and Employment (504). organization concerned: Department of Labor; New York, NY: Dept. of Employment. Congressional Relevance: Rep. Frederick V., Richmond. Authority: Comprehensive Employment and Training Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 801). Emergency Summer Employment Act of 1975 (P.L. 94-36). The payroll records of 124 enrollees in the 1975 Summer Youth kmployment program in New fork City who claimed monies were owed them were reviewed. Findings/Conclusions: Some enrollees in the program were not paid at all, some were underpaid, and others were not paid on time. Enrcllees were not always paid on schedule for work done because checks were not prepared. Frequently, payment problems were due to deficiencies emanating from agencies responsible fo7 the program, such as no timecards prepared, late timecards, errors on tinecards, and improper registrations. Reasons for payment r: lems ii.cluded poor payroll preparation; inadequate payrolV procedures; and weaknesses in payroll system training, computet records, organizing the citw's Youtb Services Agencyt, and distributing checks. Although there were problems citywide, checks were prepared for most enrollees as scheduled. The Department of Labor failed to fully assure that the city properly planned administrative procedures. Although Labor monitored the program, it did not require the city to correct deficiencies as they surfaced. The city administration did not effectively monitor and require correction of the problems as they &rose. Specifically, the city's Youth Services Agencl did not adequately plan for efficient payment of the youths. (Author/SC)
