Workforce Investment Act of 1998
(WIA); Lower Living Standard Income
Level (LLSIL)
Employment and Training
Administration (ETA), Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Title I of WIA (Pub. L. 105–
220) requires the U.S. Secretary of Labor
(Secretary) to update and publish the
LLSIL tables annually, for uses
described in the law (including
determining eligibility for youth). WIA
defines the term ‘‘low income
individual’’ as one who qualifies under
various criteria, including an individual
who received income for a six-month
period that does not exceed the higher
level of the poverty line or 70 percent
of the LLSIL. This issuance provides the
Secretary’s annual LLSIL for 2013 and
references the current 2013 Health and
Human Services ‘‘Poverty Guidelines.’’
DATES: This notice is effective March 19,
2013.
SUMMARY:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
purpose of WIA is to provide workforce
investment activities through statewide
and local workforce investment systems
that increase the employment, retention,
and earnings of participants. WIA
programs are intended to increase the
occupational skill attainment by
participants and the quality of the
workforce, thereby reducing welfare
dependency and enhancing the
productivity and competitiveness of the
Nation.
LLSIL is used for several purposes
under the WIA. Specifically, WIA
Section 101(25) defines the term ‘‘low
income individual’’ for eligibility
purposes, and Sections 127(b)(2)(C) and
132(b)(1)(B)(v)(IV) define the terms
‘‘disadvantaged youth’’ and
‘‘disadvantaged adult’’ in terms of the
poverty line or LLSIL for State formula
allotments. The governor and State/local
workforce investment boards (WIBs) use
the LLSIL for determining eligibility for
youth and adults for certain services.
ETA encourages governors and State/
local WIBs to consult the WIA
regulations and the preamble to the WIA
Final Rule (published at 65 FR 49294
August 11, 2000) for more specific
guidance in applying LLSIL to program
requirements. The U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS)
published the most current povertylevel guidelines in the Federal Register
on January 24, 2013 (Volume 78,
Number 16), pp. 5182–5183. The HHS
2013 Poverty guidelines may also be
found on the Internet at https://
aspe.hhs.gov/poverty/13poverty.cfm.
ETA plans to have the 2013 LLSIL
available on its Web site at https://
www.doleta.gov/llsil/2013/.
