The job retention rate, as defined by the department, at periodic intervals after placement of former participants in Wisconsin Works employment positions. 4. Wages and benefits earned by former participants in Wisconsin works employment positions. 5. Appropriate implementation of Wisconsin works. 6. Customer satisfaction.
