Incentives to Employers
The focus of the CalWORKs Partnership program is employability. Through its program of individualized training and services, the college provides potential job candidates who have updated, proficient job skills, an attitude of self-confidence and self-reliance, and a desire to "make it" in the workforce.

Employees hired from the BCC CalWORKs program are give 30-, 60-, and 90-day follow-up evaluations of their work performance, as well as an ongoing individualized counseling support system-all to ensure a successful and profitable employee/employer relationship.

Another important incentive to you as an employer is the tax credit available when you hire employees who are TANF recipients or who are from other targeted groups. The Welfare-to-Work Tax Credit and the Work Opportunity Tax Credit provide substantial tax credits on wages paid to such employees.
