The Need:
Project Background
• A disconnect exists between the actual need and the service offered, this is very demoralizing and discouraging
for participants and staff.
• Organizations that assist unemployed low-income individuals prepare for, find and keep meaningful employment, experience:
• High program drop out rates of 25%-50% after first contact
![Page 6: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Project BackgroundThe Need:
• Identified a need to address motivation prior to engaging individuals in job search activities.
• Immediate engagement in employment assistance services, results in an ineffective use of resources and high program attrition rates.
![Page 7: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Employment Service Providers must:
• Develop new ways to assist clients with multiple barriers to employment.
• Address the client’s readiness for change.
• Work with people where they are at.

Opportunities for Employment Inc. (OFE)has conducted 22 months of research within
a three-year study (Feb 2007 – Jan 2010) using Stages of Change Model
and Motivational Interviewing
Funding for the Stages of Change Research Study is provided by: The Government of CanadaThe Manitoba Government
Project Background
![Page 10: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
This study uses a previously untested approach to increase the labour market participation of those currently underemployed or unemployed by addressing motivation and readiness to change.
This research project also focuses on addressing and removing barriers to employment faced by individuals receiving income assistance and other under-represented labour market groups.
Project Background

Test Question:
“As compared to a control group, how does the application of Transtheoretical Model of Change and Motivational Interviewing to employment development, impact participants’ (study group) movement within the Stages of Change; will it result in…
• decreased program attrition,
• increased employment rates, and
• increased employment retention rates?”

Recycling
• An important concept that underlies this understanding of change is the acceptance that people rarely start at one point and progress through the Stages of Change without interruption.
• Such interruptions or setbacks are referred to as Recycling…
• And viewed as normal and not viewed as failure.
![Page 23: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Individuals may be identified as Recycling by behaviours such as:
• Poor attendance
• Missed appointments
• or perhaps a change in the level of job search activity

During a one-on-one intake process, an assessment is done with the participant.
The tool we use is a modified version of the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment scale (URICA), there are 12 questions asked using a 5pt Likert scale.
Participants are then referred to an intervention based on the readiness to change score.

Stage Indicators:
Each stage has identifiable indicators based on behaviours or attitudes.
SOC Model
![Page 42: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation:Workshop One
• This three-hour workshop is designed for participants who are identified, as not be being “ready, willing and able” to obtain and sustain employment.
• Participants will be introduced to the concept of the six Stages of Change.
• Using a decisional balance exercise, participants will explore, as part of a group, the advantages and disadvantages of being employed and unemployed.

Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation:Work Readiness Orientation One
• Other activities used is emotional arousal (videos), consciousness raising (to increase one awareness of self and the need to change), and self revaluation (to examine one’s own attitudes and behaviours)
• The workshop focuses on feelings of ambivalence and what it feels like to feel two ways about working.
• Assessment is done at the end of the workshop, the result of the assessment will determine what intervention the participant will go to next.

Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation: Workshop Two
• Participants will engage in this three-hour workshop based on referral according to their self-assessment score obtained at the end of Workshop One.
• This workshop further explores feelings of ambivalence that are common in the Stages of Change cycle.
Orientation
![Page 48: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation: Workshop Two
• This session expands on the concepts of emotions, stress, self-efficacy, and the importance of self-confidence as related to change and to employment.
• It also includes a SOC self-assessment.
Orientation

Preparation: Workshop Three
• This three-hour workshop reviews and builds on the SOC concepts introduced previously, for those that attended Workshops 1 & 2, and introduces them for the first time for those that come to intake in Preparation
• Focuses on reinforcing the decision made to move towards engagement in the labour force.
• SOC concepts utilized in this workshop include helping relationships, countering, and commitment.

Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation:Motivational Interviews
• Motivational Interviewing (MI), developed by Miller and Rollnick (1991), is defined as a client-centered, directive counselling method for enhancing intrinsic motivation to change by exploring and resolving ambivalence.
• It focuses on the person’s current interests and concerns and it is consciously directive in that the interviewer elicits and selectively reinforces change talk and also responds to resistance in a manner intended to extinguish it.
Psycho-Therapy

Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation:
Motivational Interviews
• Motivational Interviews are designed to focus on a participant’s employment situation and the identified stage of the SOC Model the individual is currently in.
• The interviewer uses empathy, open-ended questions, reflections and affirmations.
• The interview is concluded with a summary of the discussion focusing on the individual’s strengths.
Psycho-Therapy
![Page 52: Motivating Change Towards Employment Using the Stages of Change Model](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56813434550346895d9b23e3/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Pre-Contemplation and Contemplation:
Motivational Interviews
• The goal is to elicit change by the participant from talking about the benefits of employment and subsequently have the participant formulate an action plan towards employment.
• Motivational Interviews are offered on a one-on-one basis and will generally last one hour.
• An assessment will be performed at the end of each session to determine if additional sessions are required.
Psycho-Therapy

Follow-up:
• During the “Preparation / Action” stages, the need for continued support is critical. The action stage is often when a person loses their cheerleaders.
• OFE provides follow-up services for six months.

Follow-up:
If the participant recycles, they have access to the following…
• Access to MI appointments with the clinician
• Access to workshops
• Re-assessment in conjunction with follow-up interventions

“When I came to OFE as a participant, I was terrified about going back to work after a lengthy illness. There were many things that I had to deal with and the pressures were weighing down on me.
The Stages of Change workshops and one-on-one Motivational Interviews helped me to explore my feelings about returning to work and I began to challenge some of my perceptions about what working would look like for me and for my children.
Through continued support, I made the decision to work and moved into updating my skills and looking for employment.
I don’t think that I would have made it through my computer training and job search preparation had it not been for the support available through the Stages of Change project.
I have been working full-time for over six months now and am enjoying the rewards of being a part of the work world. Thank you!”
