SUMMARY

 
This bill creates the Peer Support Program for Displaced
Workers within the Department of Labor to provide advocacy and
information to employees affected by significant layoffs. Under
the program, the department would initiate a peer support project
and hire peer support workers when layoffs of 100 or more
employees occur or when 50 or more employees are laid off and a
project is warranted by the nature of the workforce or the
community.
