This new employment system will enhance our ability to improve employment outcomes for New Yorkers with disabilities, and prove greatly beneficial to businesses/employers and providers of employment supports. Among the many benefits, this new employment system will:

  • Centralize employment service/support information, greatly improving the ability to coordinate employment supports and services among multiple providers and across multiple systems
  • Identify individual job seekers' skills, assist with resume development, and match skills sought by businesses/employers for specific jobs with the skills possessed by job seekers
  • Assist with entitlements screening and enrollment
  • Generate tax credit claiming documentation for businesses/employers that hire individuals with disabilities through the system
  • Generate Ticket To Work milestone payment claiming documentation associated with helping individuals with disabilities achieve certain employment outcomes
  • Provide public access to employment-related performance reports generated by data entered into the system
