Control Panel - Benefit Information |
OSST computes required hours for Community Work Experience (CWEP) and for Work Experience on the benefits screen. Both the formula used and the result are displayed. |
CWEP formula used is: (Cash amount + SNAP E&T Food Assistance amount/5.15/4.3) = mandatory CWEP hours
Work Experience formula used is: Cash amount/5.15/4.3) = mandatory Work Experience hours
This saves the career manager time used to calculate the hours and the need to recall the proper formula. |
