impact with their support and encouragement.

Industrial Commission of Arizona Proposes Policy Regarding Application of the Arizona Minimum Wage Law on
Individuals with Disabilities
By Phil
Pangrazio, ABIL Executive Director On March 22nd, the Industrial Commission
of Arizona (ICA) will have presided over a public meeting to gather input on
the applicability of Arizonas new minimum wage law as it pertains to
individuals with developmental, cognitive, mental and physical disabilities.
Staff of the ICA has developed a draft policy that attempts to
establish what the Commissions interpretation of the applicability of the
minimum wage law will be on those individuals with disabilities that have
been subject to 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
The following is a summary of the proposed policy. Currently, under an exemption found in § 14(c) of the FLSA,
an employer may obtain a special certificate that authorizes the payment of
a sub-minimum wage to a disabled individual performing work for the
employer. Arizonas new
minimum wage law does not provide for the exemption found in § 14(c) of the
FLSA. The Industrial Commission staff reviewed the work
relationship and work activities performed by disabled individuals to
determine if those individuals meet the definition of employee under
the Arizona Minimum Wage Act. They
considered work activities that may be performed as part of, or for, an
evaluation, training, or therapeutic process or purpose. Based on this
review, the ICA determined the following: A.
An
individual meets the definition of employee and is entitled to be paid
$6.75 per hour if, after meeting the minimum qualifications for a position,
with or without public or privately provided assistance such as a job coach
or reader, the individual is hired by an employer to perform work for the
employer. This individual is an
employee under the Act because there is an expectation of a wage for
services rendered (implied or express) and the services rendered are for the
primary benefit of the employer. B.
An
individual does not meet the definition of employee, and therefore is not an
employee covered under the Act, if that individual performs work activities
for the primary or personal benefit of the individual (as opposed to the
employer) without an agreement for compensation. These work activities are
performed as part of a vocational training program and there is no
expectation of the payment of compensation, though the individual may
receive a stipend for the work performed.
A training program shall consist of no more than three cycles
of 2,520 consecutive service hours for a total of 7,560 consecutive service
hours. 1)
A
vocational training program shall end when a) an individual is offered at
least one job in integrated community employment, b) the individual
completes 7,560 consecutive service hours in a training program and moves
into a service recipient program, or c) the individual elects to participate
in a new training program that identifies new goals, outcomes, and training.
The service recipient program is a long-term program providing work
activities that are primarily therapeutic, but which assist, in the
development of job skills. Participants
in this program are individuals with disabilities who have not reached the
goal of successful integrated employment.
In this program, an individual continues to receive an independent
evaluation of their physical, mental, cognitive, and functional abilities
through an Individual Service Plan (ISP). By amendment to an ISP, a service
recipient and/or their guardian may elect to start a new vocational training
program. Many disability advocates have opposed a permanent waiver of
the new minimum wage law because an exemption that permanently allows
employers to pay employees with disabilities sub-minimum wage promotes low
expectations and limited choices for people with developmental disabilities
and perpetuates segregated employment and poverty.
Advocates want to make sure that employees get real choices for
employment that is compatible with their capacity and interest and pays them
prevailing wages whenever possible. Nobody was prepared for the changes that arrived with the
passing of Arizonas new minimum wage law.
The ICA proposal subtly refines the current employment services
system for people with developmental disabilities.
It begins with the premise that people with developmental
disabilities are employable in the community at minimum wage or above, but
still provides a safety net for those individuals, who, for whatever reason,
may not reach that goal. For those that are interested in seeing the complete version
of the ICA policy document, they can do so by visiting the Commissions
website at www.ica.state.az.us Please note that ABIL has not formally endorsed or opposed
this proposed policy of the ICA.

wheelchair. Join for some practical advice from those in the know. This program is divided into four modules: Transferring: Chair to Furniture/bed/vehicle; chair to floor/floor to

Freedom to Work, Work
Incentives Planning & Assistance Q&A By Erik Jensen Q:
I receive monthly payments from the state to provide for my foster child.
Will these payments affect my SSI? A: How SSI treats foster care payments depends upon the
source of the payments, the purpose of the payments, and whether the SSI
recipient is the provider or recipient of the care. If the payments you receive are paid by the state and are
based on financial need, they dont count as income for SSI purposes.
To determine if the payments you receive will impact your cash
benefit, contact a Community Work Incentives Coordinator, 602-443-0720 (V), 602-443-0737 (TTY).
ADA Restoration Act: Legislative Update April
17th 12:00pm
- 1:30pm ABIL/Main ADA Teleconference Sponsored by PDBTAC In 2006 Congressmen Sensenbrenner, Jr (R-WI) and Hoyer
(D-MD) introduced a bi-partisan bill that would restore protections for
individuals intended to be covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990. This piece of legislation was not passed before the end of the 109th
Congress. It is anticipated it will once again be introduced during the new
110th Congress and under very different circumstances given the outcome of
the 2006 elections. The ADA Restoration Act, as it is currently known, is
intended to restore the ADA to its "original intent" and address
several decisions made by the US Supreme Court over the past 16 years. Join
this session to learn about the history and intent of the ADA Restoration
Act and the future of legislation that may affect the civil rights of
individuals with disabilities. Speaker: Andrew J. Imparato, President and Chief Executive
