REPORT BY THE U, S.


General Accounting Office






Implementation Of The Phaseout

Of CETA Public Service Jobs

The Department of Labor estimated that 300, 000
people would lose their jobs because of the termina-
tion of the Comprehensive Employment and Training
Act's public service employment programs.
GAO reviewed Labor's efforts to find permanent
unsubsidized jobs or new training opportunities for
these individuals at eight prime sponsors.
For seven of these sponsors (the other was not
considered by GAO to be representative), GAO found
that
   --45 percent of the former public service employ-
     ment participants were employed, 50 percent
     were unemployed, and 5 percent were in Vchool
     or training;
     --almost 24 percent of the employed individuals
     held temporary jobs and another 21 percent had
     part-time jobs;
     --about 54 percent of the employed were working
     in the private sector;
     -55 percent of the unemployed individuals were
     receiving one or more forms of government
     financial assistance;
     --most of the unemployed individuals were look-
     ing for work; and
     --participants' perceptions of help received from
     local agencies varied widely.
