The One-Stop operator responsibilities are included as a separate attachment. Level of access may be affected by geography, number of staff in the region, and available resources, and therefore may even vary from one One-Stop center to another within the same region. It is important that the unique needs of the individual be considered as well. Local areas should consider multiple ways to provide access to each service or program. Title I of WIA creates separate funding streams for adults and dislocated workers.
Core services are available to all individuals.
Previously, only Wagner-Peyser funds could be used to provide lobor market information and labor exchange services for any employer or job seeker without regard to specific program eligibility. WIA expands the concept of universal access to all core services provided through the One-Stop system. The combination of Wagner-Peyser funds and funds from WIA may result in a expansion of accessibility to core services. Core services will be provided by the One-Stop partners. Intensive services may be provided to adults and dislocated workers who are unemployed and are unable to obtain employment through core services, if the One-Stop operator determines that the individual is in need of more intensive services in order to obtain employment.
