DIRECTIVE: OLDER WORKER BULLETIN 99-5

TO: ALL SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM (SCSEP) SPONSORS

SUBJECT: INDEX OF OLDER WORKER (OW) BULLETINS

1. PURPOSE: To share with the SCSEP sponsors, an updated index of OW Bulletins.

2. REFERENCES: Each year the Department of Labor's, Division of Older Worker Programs issues notices to the program sponsors of the SCSEP in the form of OW Bulletins. The issues addressed in these bulletins focus on matters of policy, procedures and subjects of general interest.

3. ISSUANCE: The attached index of OW Bulletins is catalogued by number. Only those bulletins still pertinent are referenced in this index. They are updated from the previous index of bulletins, issued October 1997.

Sponsors may wish to maintain copies of some rescinded bulletins which are not included on the list. Such bulletins may include those concerning such topics as income eligibility or reporting instructions, which may be needed for audit or other historical purposes.

4. DIRECTIVE: This index will be updated periodically by the Department. Sponsors are responsible for maintaining their own files and should not rely on the Department to retrieve old issuances for them. Sponsors are further reminded that their office should retain a permanent file of OW Bulletins.

Copies of the pertinent bulletins, as well as the current program year bulletins, may be accessed via the SCSEP homepage on the Internet. You may reach the SCSEP Homepage at http://www.wdsc.org/owprog. If a sponsor is unable to access the Internet and is missing any of the listed bulletins, we will provide copies upon request.

5. INQUIRIES: Requests for additional information or requests to secure copies of past OW Bulletins should be made to your designated Federal Representative.
