Common use of Transitional Jobs Clause in Contracts

Transitional Jobs. Transitional Jobs are a type of work experience that can be provided under WIOA and are considered individualized career services. Transitional jobs are limited and wage-paid work experiences that are subsidized up to 100 percent. These jobs are in the public, private, or nonprofit sectors and are only available for individuals with barriers to employment who are chronically unemployed or have an inconsistent work history as determined by OCWDB. Transitional jobs provide an individual with work experience while demonstrating success in an employer-employee relationship and developing skills in which the program provider generally acts as the employer, and with an opportunity to develop important workplace skills. The service must be combined with career and supportive services. These jobs must be designed to establish a work history for the individual, demonstrate success, in the workplace, and develop the skills that lead to entry into and retention in unsubsidized employment.
