Which of the following is included as part of the federal workforce programs funded by the USDOL?

• A. Wagner-Peyser
• B. Workforce Investment Act
• C. Veterans Employment and Training Services
• D. Re-Employment Assistance

Answer: (A)

Think about the federal employment system as a set of programs the Department of Labor directly funds to help job seekers and employers. The Wagner-Peyser program created Employment Services that provide job-search assistance, counseling, and referrals through state workforce agencies. It’s a direct USDOL-funded effort administered by the agency that runs employment programs, making it a core part of the federal workforce offerings. The other options describe broader or different kinds of employment-related activities—workforce development funding under the Workforce Investment Act, services for veterans under a separate USDOL office, or unemployment insurance-type benefits that are mainly state-administered with federal guidelines. So the Wagner-Peyser program is the one that clearly fits as a USDOL-funded federal workforce program.
