Strategies

Expand refundable earned income tax credits for working individuals and families with low to moderate incomes

Offer employees control over an aspect of their schedule through arrangements such as flex time, flex hours, compressed work weeks, or self-scheduled shift work

Provide employees with paid time off for circumstances such as a recent birth or adoption, a parent or spouse with a serious medical condition, or a sick child

Establish time-limited, subsidized, paid jobs to help individuals with barriers to employment transition to unsubsidized employment
