Unsubsidized Employment (including Self-Employment) is defined as any activity involving effort on the part of the participant for which wages, salaries, commissions, or profits are paid and this payment is not subsidized by the State or Federal programs such as IMPACT, Workforce Investment Act (WIA) and Vocational Rehabilitation, or would be paid if the participant had not chosen the option to receive goods for services for the performed activity (in-kind earnings). Unsubsidized employment (including self-employment) is included in case notes; recorded in Eligibility and/or IMPACT SOR; and documentation retained.

Counting unsubsidized employment hours/income: • The number of actual participation hours are verified from employer produced documentation substantiating number of hours worked/income. Projected hours up to 6 months are based upon one full pay period representing continuing circumstances.

Counting self-employment income: • Self-employed individuals must verify gross earned income and expenses. Countable monthly hours are based on gross income minus 40 percent for expenses or actual expenses, whichever is greater, divided by the federal minimum wage. Monthly hours are divided by 4.33 to find the countable weekly participation hours. 2540.10.10 SUBSIDIZED PRIVATE AND PUBLIC SECTOR EMPLOYMENT (C)

Subsidized Private or Public Sector Employment includes paid employment for which an employer receives a subsidy from TANF or other public funds to offset the cost of some or all the wages and costs of employing a participant.
