Section 2054 Of Chapter 9. Public Employment Offices From California Unemployment Insurance Code >> Division 1. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 9.
2054
. (a) The director shall:
(1) Establish, maintain, and operate adequately staffed public
employment offices for men, women, and youth who are legally
qualified to engage in gainful occupations and shall maintain a
veterans' placement service to be devoted to securing work for
veterans and a farm placement service to promote the placement and
clearance of agricultural labor, and a youth placement service to
promote the placement of youth in suitable fields of employment. The
director shall also establish and maintain a job counseling and
placement service for those persons who are encountering, or may be
expected to encounter difficulty in securing or keeping a job
principally because of their age. The maintenance of a farm placement
service shall not be required during such time as applicable federal
laws provide for a system of farm labor placement financed from
federal funds which is separate and apart from the general system of
public employment offices. Adequate records and statistics on all the
classifications specified in this subdivision shall be compiled and
kept, and a report of these records, statistics, applications, and
placements shall be made semiannually.
(2) Procure, by lease or otherwise, suitable offices, and incur
the necessary expenses in the conduct thereof.
(b) It is the policy of this state to make every reasonable effort
to assist men and women who are leaving active duty with the armed
services of the United States in obtaining employment in the civilian
workforce. These efforts shall include outreach to those service
personnel who will be leaving active duty in the near future,
including job seminars and job fairs at military bases.
(c) The director shall perform the duties required by this section
within existing budgetary resources of the agency within which the
department operates.
