Notice and opportunity to comment on proposed changes to UI Performs.

Based on that review, ETA is proposing changes that will result in improved performance measurement and allow state UI managers to better focus attention on the most critical program areas.

End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental InformationSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: Over the period 1993 to 1997 two joint federal-state workgroups designed a comprehensive performance management system for UI, and gave it the name UI Performs. Two kinds of measures emerged from this process: Tier I measures for which minimum national criteria were set, and Tier II measures for which criteria were not set. Planning and budget cycles at the state level are structured around State Quality Service Plans (SQSP) which include performance objectives referenced to Tier I and Tier II measures.
The UI Performs design also called for a review of the system within five (5) years of implementation. This initial review and resulting recommendations are discussed below.
The Review. The review of UI Performs, which began with a request to state UI agencies to identify issues relevant to the UI Performs system, addressed: (a) Performance measures; (b) criteria used to gauge success against the measures; and (c) the administration of UI Performs. Issues raised by states, a proposal by the National Association of State Workforce Agencies (NASWA), and issues raised by Federal staff formed the basis for the review which was conducted in consultation with a NASWA workgroup. The consultative process clarified the issues and informed much of the proposed changes described below.
