How to Use the Manual

The Employment and Income Assistance Administration manual is provided for information purposes only. While changes in the program will be incorporated in the manual as quickly as possible, new policies may not yet be reflected in the manual. Program staff should be contacted for specific information when necessary.

Header Bar

The header bar at the top of the screen contains four links that can be used to navigate through the site. To view a list of the major sections included in the manual, select the "policy manual index" link, and the list will appear on your screen. To access a more detailed list of topics found within each section, click on the "table of contents" link. If you would like to search for a specific topic within the manual, click the "search" key to open the search window. If you are interested in finding out general information about the Department and the programs it offers, click on the "family services and housing" link and the Department of Family Services Housing website will open. Please be advised, however, that the Department's website does not contain any additional information about the manual.

Policy Manual Index

The "policy manual index" includes a list of all the major sections in the manual. Each section describes a different topic and is marked with a different number. Once you have selected a particular section, the screen will display the portion of the table of contents that contains the individual topics within that section.

Table of Contents

The table of contents includes all of the individual topics under each section. Once you have selected an individual topic, the on-line manual will open to the text on that topic.

Search

The search box allows you to type in specific topics to get a list of where those topics are located in the manual. For example, if you want information about "work expectations", type in those words and all of the sections that include information on work expectations will be listed.

If you want to find the individual references to your key words on your Internet browser, click on your find feature, type in the same words you used in your search and each entry will be selected.
