Disaster Recovery Clean Up and Humanitarian Worksites Survey |
Worksite Survey
Mountain Area Workforce Development Board has received funding through the North Carolina Department of Commerce, Division of Workforce Solutions and the US Department of Labor to create a temporary employment program for clean up and humanitarian needs as a result of Hurricane Helene. The individuals employed in the program may perform clean up or humanitarian functions for public, for-profit, or non-profit entities in the counties approved by FEMA for up to one year. This project includes Buncombe, Henderson, Madison, and Transylvania Counties for this region. If you are outside of this region, contact the Workforce Board for that area. Worksites must pay at least $15 per hour. Wage should be market competitive. Total hours are capped at 2,000 hours. Participants cannot work over 40 hours per week. Public, private, for-profit, and non-profit entities that are interested in applying to be worksites should answer the following survey. We anticipate this program will begin after January 1, 2025.
