Description

The Louis A. Johnson VAMC (LAJVAMC) is looking for contractors for job placement, job development, job support and coaching services for eligible participants in the Compensated Work Therapy (CWT) Program. The contractor must identify vocational opportunities in the form of competitive job placements for veteran participants in the CWT Program. The contractor must meet with prospective company officials to query interest and discuss potential jobs. Facts to be determined include: type of work and work conditions, hours worked per shift, skill sets needed, hourly rate charged, dress code, standard company rules, eliminating factors, assistive technology, specialized job training, transportation available, individually-tailored supervision, and other vital information necessary for veteran screening. It is necessary for the contractor to conduct on site review of the proposed placement, with a report of same to CWT staff, and to examine the site for work place safety and to become familiar with work place culture. Final inspection and oversight, for purposes of ensuring work place safety, remain the ultimate responsibility of the LAJVAMC Safety Officer and/or CWT Program staff. Consideration of available transportation is a critical element in identifying an appropriate site. The contractor must evaluate transportation availability to and from a company prior to determining site eligibility and/or making a recommendation for a placement. Job placement services need to achieve the following outcomes: opportunity to earn equitable wages and other employment-related benefits, development of new skills, increased community participation, enhanced self-esteem, increased consumer empowerment, and improved quality of life. The contractor is the liaison between the veteran and the participating company in providing suitable work settings, and must be available, as a job coach, to support the veteran in their relationship with the participating company. Contractor must have extensive knowledge of local labor market, industry, and resources, as evidenced by past experience providing such services in north-central WV area to include: Morgantown, Fairmont, Clarksburg, and surrounding areas.
