Subject:Add Two (2) Eligibility Work Supervisor I (XHHA) Positions for the Workforce Services Bureau in Employment and
Human Services Dept
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
provide timely assistance to families in receipt of CalWORKs, CalFresh and Medi-Cal. These positions will
review and monitor the work of newly hired staff to effectively apply policies and procedures based on Federal,
State and County mandates.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the two (2) Eligibility Work Supervisor I positions are not approved, the Department will have
insufficient supervisory support to effectively monitor and assess the work of new staff. In addition, this
will have a negative impact on existing staff who will be asked to take on additional duties above and
beyond their regular tasks . This may result in failures to adhere to Federal and State mandates and
negatively impact families served by the Employment and Human Services Department.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Children are adversely impacted when economically disadvantaged families do not have access to public support
benefits, adequate housing, and food and health care benefits. The Department's vision and mission promises to
deliver quality services and to provide communities where families can be healthy, safe, secure and self-sufficient.
These positions will provide the Department with the additional supervisory support needed to monitor
compliance and provide quality control of new staff in the Workforce Services Bureau. As the demand continues
to grow for Department services, added supervision for the new workers being hired (many temporary) to meet
this demand is necessary to oversee and monitor the work of the staff.
