2.9.1  Introduction

When appropriate, W-2Wisconsin Works applicants may be assigned to search for unsubsidized employment as a condition of eligibility.  This is commonly referred to as “up-front job search.”  If an applicant fails to participate in up-front job search requirements without good cause, the W-2 agency may deny the individual’s application.

In addition, W-2 participants may be required to look for employment.  If a W-2 participant fails to cooperate with employment search requirements without good cause, the W-2 agency may close the participant’s case. (See 11.5.1)
