Section A General Definition of Eligibility
To be eligible for assignment to work projects which are financed T
in whole or in part from funds allocated by the Emergency Relief i
Appropriation Act of l94l, persons, except as indicated below, shall
have been certified as in need of relief, A public welfare agency
approved by the Work Projects Administration as referral agency is T `
responsible for referring persons who are employable and in need of E
relief. The regulations, policies and procedures established by l ·
the WPA shall be followed by the referral agency,
Certification shall always reflect the existing need regardless of '
current assignment opportunities on projects. Persons who apply *
for certification or who are determined eligible for employment shall
be certified and their certification shall be placed in the awaiting
assignment file maintained by the Division of Employment of the’WRA,  
Referral agencies have no responsibility in matters pertaining to
assignment of workers to projects. Certification to WPA is not
» granted to applicants for the purpose of obtaining particular assign-
ments to projects; certification is based solely on need of relief
due to unemployment.
Section B Eligibility Requirements
l. Need
For the purpose of certification, need shall be said to exist l
when the resources of a family or unattached individual are in-
sufficient to provide a reasonable subsistence compatible with
decency and health. Persons whose names have not heretofore been
placed on relief rolls and who are in need shall be eligible for
employment, and shall be certified in the same manner as persons
who have actually been receiving relief.
2· §£&]:.E’l’BE·.¥E9.3.C ‘
Employability is determined by the ability of a person to perform
satisfactory work for which he is qualified on projects eligible
\ for prosecution by the Work Projects Administration. No person
r whose physical condition is such as to make his employment danger-
ous to his health or safety or to the health and safety of others `
may be considered as eligible for employment on a project. This
shall not be construed to operate against the eligibility for em-
ployment of physically handicapped persons otherwise eligible for
employment when such persons can be safely assigned to work which
they can perform, Neither shall this be construed to prevent the
certification of persons whose normal occupations are not current-
ly being used on projects, provided they are otherwise eligible
and would normally be considered in the labor market. Young persons
who have no previous employment record or other persons coming into
the labor market may be employed on projects provided such persons
are otherwise eligible and qualified.
