"Life it a jigsaw puzzle with most of the pieces missing." Anonymous ESC Attempts To Shed ‘Unemployment Office’ Image RALEIGH—The N. C. Employment Security Commission (ESC), popularly known as Job Service, is trying to combat an identity crisis. Like most state em ployment agencies throughout the country, Job Service wants to shed its image as only “the unem ployment office”- the place where out-of-work people get unemployment com pensation. The emphasis of the agency in recent years has been shifting toward comprehensive job service, said J. B. Archer, chairman of the commission. “Unemployment insurance obviously is still among the commission’s major duties,” he said. “However, its relative importance may be partially due to the fact that other services are being underused by the public which is unaware of them. We are trying to combat this problem with public in formation.” The ESC exhibit at the State Fair, part of an eight state agency display en titled “In the Works”, was central to this informational effort. “In it we emphasize that Job Service matches job seekers with employ ers, offers occupational test ing and job orientation ser vices, provides career counseling and referral ser vices and coordinates special programs and represen tation for target groups with specific needs, ” Archer I "AFTER ALL I’VE I [DONE FOR YOUjJ B/* 'Zz 1 j o * v I ‘-A M Mr ngfi A * JWFM WE CAN DO MORE for you with a free survey of your risks and insurance policies.

Smith said, “nothing could be further from the truth. The ESC display shows how Job Service helps all kinds of people find jobs of all kinds.” Battered Women Number 2-Mil.

At least, that is what is currently being reported. Alcohol plays a big part in domestic violence. Os cases reported in North Carolina during 1979, 55.3 per cent of the cases had an alcohol connection. That same year, eight programs across the state saw 5,000 women in need. Under a new record keeping system this year, 30 programs will keep tabs on the connection of alcohol and domestic problems. “I am pleased with this (Mutual F mamma— MUGS H ARLINGTON 18 PIECE APPLE SHAPED piluruccT HOT PAD SET CAESAR'S GOURMET CUTLERY SET $ A 88 »‘ l "" SVI 44 00 JSSiSf .Stainless Steel Blades \J *■* j|i s FILTERS CUPPER COOKIES NUTCRACKER lk mmmmx PECAN SHELLER SS-SS SSL-SSE NUT PICK SET Mfclfr-77’ XT S 2 9 ’ ” « 6 7 t -.ITS 88 ( V m oral-b —— r — r -— r Sn^° 9esic RlOpdfl toothbrush I I sksskss, ! 0 * 2# * So !!««■ pgjjj B I : magaldrate aai .35 .4* .60 0.5-OZ I 1 ' c[ y l | ai ryz aspnn I I .

Department of Labor began a nationwide campaign to improve the image of all ■state employment serviced through the use of the “Job Service” logo in 1975, the public still often fails to connect “Job Service” and its numerous programs with the local public employment offices. Archer said the corn- new system, especially because four units of government are beginning to work toegether to collaborate and share in formation,” says White. Those five agencies are the Council on the Status of Women, Crime Control and Public Safety, and three from the N.C. Department of Human Resources - the Alcohol and Drug Section of the Division of Mental Health, Mental Retardation and Substance Abuse Services, the Assistant Secretary for Children and the Division of Social Ser vices. “Domestic violence vic tims and people with alcohol and drug problems are often Come Shop A Mutual Pharmacy This Week ...

Often these people do ngt talk about their “hidden problems” because they are embarassed or do not know they can be helped, if they are willing to take the first step,” explains Sandra Wilson, co-chair of the N. C. Women’s Task Force on Alcohol and Drug Abuse, recently appointed to the Governor’s Task Force on Domestic Violence. Physical violence can be a real danger in such cases and the victim should remove herself and her children immediately from the situation to avoid further assaults, according to ironic when you realize that less than 20 percent of our employees at the beginning of 1980 worked for the Unemployment Insurance Division. The balance of nearly 1,300 employees worked in collecting and distributing labor market information and in operating a full scope of job placement and training services. White. “Many women have difficulties leaving their husbands. In the short run, they fear retaliation. In the long run they fear losing their financial security, not having a father for their children and they have few legal remedies which guarantee protection under current North Carolina law,” she says. In spite of the barriers which often prevent women from seeking safety and shelter, there are services in North Carolina com munities which have trained and caring people who can help, 24 hours a day. Many offer emergency shelter and counseling. Page 7-A “Particularly since the conclusion of state job openings in Job Service listings this year, there is just no organisation in the private sector that is capable of competing with ESC”,” Archer said. “No other organization has anywhere near the resources or the variety of services to employers that Job Service does and it is free.” If there isn’t one in your local community, check with the local crisis line, information and referral agency or mental health center.
