Finding Jobs Made Major Agency Goal
SACRAMENTO ULP State Director of Employment William A Burkett said Thursday he will switch the department from paying on claims to finding jobs. He told a legislative committee that some anti unemployment pay chiselers methods ended as he concentrates on stopping fraud in local offices via proper interviews and restoring life to employment programs. Burkett, named by Gov Knight after testifying in 1953 about fraud draining funds, noted he cut an internal audit in half and pursued other economies.
