Program Details
The Rapid Response team responds to employer notices of pending layoffs and business closings upon receipt to discuss and plan how any other services offered by DOES may be provided upon request. The delivery of services is set to occur before the dispersion of workers so that reemployment activities may begin before the issuance of separation notices.
The Rapid Response team includes a Rapid Response Coordinator, an American Job Center representative, an Unemployment Insurance representative, and a Trade Adjustment Assistance representative. Materials may be shared or provided for the employer and workers to be affected by the impending layoff or closure before or during deployment of our team.
