or failure to act by any participant on or off the job.
The primary purpose of this Agreement is to identify and establish temporary jobs to assist in the clean -up,
restoration and humanitarian efforts that are necessary as a direct result of recovery efforts associated with the
Hurricane disaster and to fill those jobs with eligible individuals that have temporarily or permanently lost their
regular job as a result of the disaster or cannot find work as a result of the disruption to business activities
caused by a declared emergency and /or disaster.
Workforce Solutions of Southeast Texas will contract with a Professional Employer Organization to provide the
direct services and will be the employer -of- record for temporary worksite employees for the National Emergency
Grant.
