National Emergency Grants: Labor Is Instituting Changes to Improve Award Process, but Further Actions Are Required to Expedite Grant Awards and Improve Data
The Department of Labor (Labor) awards national emergency grants
to states and local areas to provide assistance to workers who
lose their jobs because of major economic dislocations or
disasters. Most grants awarded are regular grants to assist
workers affected by plant closings or mass layoffs. Questions
have been raised about whether grant funds are getting to states
and local areas quickly enough. GAO was asked to assess the
effectiveness of the process for awarding national emergency
grants, whether Labor is planning changes that will improve the
grant award process, and what is known about how grant funds are
used.
