Howevor, a more realistic approach is to conbi= FY-1971 , and FY-1976 funds on the sere contract (Use FY-1975 funds. until December 31, 1975 and then reimburse the same: employer in 1976 from •FY-1676 funds). This has the approval of the Department of Labor since all funding is on a cur:.niativo basis. This would also simplify contracts with omployers who otherwise would have restrictions on the length of training duo to funding limitations: On-Tc-Job training continues iavo the supPort and cooperation of private indnstry: and employers welcome the ooportunity to participate in programs funded by the Federal Government.
