This report examines the 42,120 jobs held by single parents who were on AFDC in Milwaukee County in December 1995 and who are expected to work under "W-2". The data showed a total of 18,126 AFDC caseheads had employment at least some time during the five quarters examined. All jobs held with these employers and paying wages were analyzed. These DWD employment records offer a first look at the employer experience with single parent AFDC recipients expected to work under W-2 requirements and provide baseline data on the employment experience of the AFDC population in 1996 and 1997.
