Special assistance available for M. Torres America workers

OLYMPIA – Workers and certain on-site contract workers who were laid-off by M. Torres America, may qualify for free training for a new occupation, financial assistance and other benefits through the federal Trade Act.

The U.S. Department of Labor approved benefits for workers who lost their jobs beginning Dec. 5, 2016.

Workers may receive vocational training, additional unemployment benefits, relocation expenses, reimbursement for an out-of-area job search and the federal Health Coverage Tax Credit.

Older workers may receive a subsidy that covers the difference in pay at the time of separation to the wage earned at re-employment.

Individuals who think they are eligible should contact their local WorkSource office for more information.
