Individual Delivery SCWDC Policy 06-01

  10. Customers’ Experience at WorkSource What does seamless mean: • A one-stop resource where customers can access many different employment resources. • We link customers to resources regardless of program and contract divisions so customers are unaware of those divisions. • Customers experience a flow of services without undue time gaps. • The transition of services & referrals from core to intensive to training is invisible to the customer • Communication crosses program and contract divisions : we are a partnership Individual Delivery SCWDC Policy 06-01

  11. The Most Important Point No matter who writes your check, you are a WorkSource staff. Customers look to you as a WorkSource provider of services who have resources to assist them, regardless of your employer. Individual Delivery SCWDC Policy 06-01

  12. What is the WorkSource Partnership WorkSource does not exist without partnership. WorkSource is a partnership; it is not any one program or agency. WorkSource is made possible by the partners coming together to maximize resources for customers. Individual Delivery SCWDC Policy 06-01

  13. Access Defined We are required to provide access to services within reason and within capacity of our resources. You are not required to provide every actual service. Access means directing the customers to the resource. Access is provided via: Pamphlets Flyers Websites Information Trainings Referrals Phones, Computers, Fax, Facilities Individual Delivery SCWDC Policy 06-01
