If you live in Tennessee and unemployed, you are probably struggling to find a suitable job. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a program that helped you find a suitable training program, told you which careers were in demand, helped you locate potential employers and to search for job openings? The Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development Department has this very program. It is called “The Source”. The website address is www.sourcetn.org.
This article will give you a brief but useful guide on how to perform each of the tasks we described in the introduction.
The loss of health insurance is often the biggest blow a family receives when the main breadwinner loses her job. After all, you can always move in with family and friends if worst comes to worst and they can help with housing and food expenses, but if you lose your health insurance, the smallest medical intervention can push you into bankruptcy. In the worst cases, you may not have the resources to receive the treatment or buy the medicines you need.
The State of Tennessee offers assistance to unemployed workers who have lost their jobs due to foreign trade or whose pensions are taken over by the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation or PBGC.
If it is hard to find work as an unemployed worker in Tennessee, it is much harder to find work as an unemployed ex-convict worker in Tennessee. The Department of Labor and Workforce Development and the Department of Correction have joined forces to create an innovative program to provide help and guidance to inmates who are about to be released. Studies show that ex-convicts who find a regular job are much less likely to return to the system and are much more likely to become productive members of society. For example, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 650,000 inmates are released every year, but one third of them return to prison and one of the big factors is lack of employment. This is not good either for inmates or taxpayers at large. Why? Consider this. In Tennessee we have over 20,000 inmates and each one costs us $23,000. If we can get inmates that are released to stay away from prison, this will not only help them but also help reduce the cost on the penal system of returning customers.
