Wash. Admin. Code § 388-310-0500 - WorkFirst - Individual responsibility plan
The purpose of your individual responsibility plan is to give you a written statement that describes:
Your individual responsibility plan includes the following:
You and your case manager will work together and use information gathered from your comprehensive evaluation (see WAC 388-310-0700 ) when available to develop your individual responsibility plan and decide what activities will be included in it. Then, your case manager will assign you to specific WorkFirst activities that will help you find employment.
Once your individual responsibility plan is completed:
If you cannot participate because of a temporary situation outside of your control, you must call the telephone number shown on your individual responsibility plan on the same day you were to report when possible to explain your situation, or as soon as possible thereafter. You will be given an excused absence. Some examples of excused absences include:
If you do not call in on the same day you are unable to attend when possible, or as soon as possible thereafter, to get an excused absence, it will be considered an unexcused absence.
If you exceed the number of unexcused absences allowed on your individual responsibility plan, without good cause, your case manager will begin the sanction process. (See WAC 388-310-1600 for more details.)
