Recovery Act Recipient Reporting:
How do recipient report jobs?
Simply stated, the “Number of Jobs” data element may be calculated as:
Total Number of Hours Worked and Funded by ARRA within the Reporting Quarter
Quarterly Hours in a Full-time Schedule (520 hours)
• Number of jobs should be reported if hours have been worked, even if an
invoice has not been submitted
• Recipients should describe how they calculated Number of Jobs in the Jobs
Description field. A best practice is to include how many hours were worked in
the quarter in the description.
