Because she did not complete the number of hours scheduled, she is not deemed to be meeting her Core requirement. If she would have worked the 67 hours as assigned, she would have been deemed to have worked the 85 required core hours. The 12 hours excused would not actually be used, since the addition of these hours would not meet the participation requirement of 67 hours. Minimum Core Hours Example 3: An All Family Household with children over age six for participation purposes: $374 WV WORKS Benefit +$504 SNAP Benefit $878 ÷$8.75 100.34 hours = 100 core participation obligation hours The required core hours are 100. The required total participation hours are 128. Since the participant in this example is required to participate 128 hours per month, and the FLSA calculations permits this individual to complete 100 hours/month, the participant must be assigned 100 hours per month in the CWEP activity and 28 additional hours in another activity not regulated by the FLSA, such as JT. There were no excused absences or holidays. The participant participates his required hours. The following figures are entered in the eligibility system:
