Welfare employment program challenged Huron County's social services department policy of requiring em- ployable welfare recipients to partic- ipate in a job search program has been challenged, county council was told at its regular December session. The county's social services direc- tor, John McKinnon told council one of the county's welfare recip- ients ha§ refused to take part in the job search and claims it is unconsti- tutional for welfare administrators to demand one. In an interview fol- lowing the meeting, Mr. McKinnon said the challenge is scheduled to be heard at a private closed hearing in Goderich later this month. "If that person wins his case, it will have far-reaching implica- tions," Mr. McKinnon warned members of council. Information on the challenge came to light during presentation of the social services committee report to council. At that time, Mr. McKinnon was respond- ing to questions from Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston who wanted to know why the department had employable people on its welfare rolls.when some employers are un- able to find people to work for them. The Village of Bayfield has been advertising unsuccessfully for months in an attempt to find people willing to do some work for the municipality, Mr. Johnston said. He suggested "something's wrong in the county" when it is difficult to hire atfybody to do the work. "The problem is that maybe employers can't afford to pay therm as much to. work as the government pays them not to," Mr. Johnston said. Tuckersmith Township Reeve Bob Bell asked McKinnon the ex- tent to which the department fol- lows up on job search sheets turned in by the welfare ients. McKin- non admitted that rale follow up takes place since rsonal con- tact by the department is almost cer- tain to jeopardize any prospective Shipka By MRS.
