PART 663--ADULT AND DISLOCATED WORKER ACTIVITIES UNDER TITLE I OF THE WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT--Table of Contents
 
                      Subpart B--Intensive Services
 
Sec. 663.230  What criteria must be used to determine whether an employed worker needs intensive services to obtain or retain employment leading to ``self-
          sufficiency''?

    State Boards or Local Boards must set the criteria for determining 
whether employment leads to self-sufficiency. At a minimum, such 
criteria must provide that self-sufficiency means employment that pays 
at least the lower living standard income level, as defined in WIA 
section 101(24). Self-sufficiency for a dislocated worker may be defined 
in relation to a percentage of the layoff wage. The special needs of 
individuals with disabilities or other barriers to employment should be 
taken into account when setting criteria to determine self-sufficiency.
