These issuances transmit
to local officials and stakeholders the policies of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts with regard to the implementation and operation of the
workforce development system in conjunction with the Workforce Investment
Act and related federal/state statutory and/or regulatory requirements.
Policy issuances generally require procedural action at the local level to
implement the provisions of the policy.
Active MassWorkforce Policy Issuances describe policies that are currently
in effect. As policies are revised or because of time-sensitivity, become
outdated, they are deleted from the Active list and added to the
Non-Active
list. Non-Active policies remain accessible through the website as part of
the historical record.

schedules; conference announcements; labor market information; USDOL
notices, performance reports; notification of database system
modifications or upgrades; etc.
