2016 evaluation of the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers .: Em20-56/2017E-PDF
"This report presents the findings and conclusions of the 2016 Evaluation of the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers (TIOW) program. The main purpose of the evaluation is to inform policy work in 2016-2017 prior to the end of the current renewal period (April 2014 to March 2017). It principally examines two areas: 1) how the introduction of two new eligibility criteria in 2014 impacted provinces and territories (PTs) in program design and delivery; and 2) how the program aligns with older worker labour market programming best practices when assessed against the academic literature. It also looked at the program’s performance in terms of achieving outcomes of employability, paid employment and self-employment where data was available. The program is a federal-provincial/territorial cost-shared initiative. It supports unemployed older workers, primarily between the ages 55 and 64, with their reintegration into employment. The program is offered in small communities of 250,000 or less experiencing high unemployment and/or significant downsizing and closures"--Executive summary, p. iii.
