This study analyzes the extent to which targeting objectives of the Emergency Jobs Programs Extension Act (EJPEA) of the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) programs have been achieved by federal and local officials and the effectiveness of limited-duration projects in providing useful public services. The study deals with the administration and program of EJPEA and with the consequences of doubling the size of public service employment programs in a very short period. It examines whether jobs created are positions that would not otherwise exist, but does not assess the extent of substitution. The major source of data was a survey conducted through a network of field research associates in 28 areas. The sample was drawn from the universe of 450 prime sponsors; government officials and U.S. Department of Labor reports also were consulted. The study found that the basic objectives of EJPEA--directing the program more to persons who have been least successful in the job market and restraining substitution--were only partially achieved. They were compromised to some extent because of the pressure from the Department of Labor for rapid expansion and the tendency of localities to adapt federal programs to local objectives. In the interest of speed and of ensuring local cooperation, the definition of projects was watered down, and the criteria for eligibility were liberalized. (This book-length study contains detail on program participants, program implementation, and recommendations for improvement.) (KC)

A study examined the effect of the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) Reauthorization Act of 1978 on public service employment (PSE) programs. A field survey, conducted during June and July 1979 (two months after provisions of the amendment went into effect), assessed the early effects of the reauthorization in the following areas: serving the disadvantaged; wages, jobs, and services; transition to unsubsidized employment; and planning and administration. The act's wage and eligibility provisions are the two major forces shaping the PSE program. Because wage provisions are forcing prime sponsors to eliminate or restructure high wage PSE positions, new PSE jobs have become less attractive to persons with alternative employment opportunities and more accessible to persons with limited qualifications. The wage provisions have also reduced the number of available professional and skilled positions. Stiffer eligibility criteria not only increase the share of disadvantaged persons participating in PSE programs, but also reduce the proclivity of sponsors to use PSE workers to provide essential public services. The goal of combining training and other employability development services with PSE jobs has remained CETA's most elusive goal. Eight recommendations for improving the PSE program were made. (MN)
