SS&C/DST has an active Trade Act petition for workers laid off from March 5, 2019 to October 28, 2022 that includes extra benefits for those workers - including job search and relocation reimbursement, wage subsidies for workers over 50 with qualifying re-employment, training funds, and many other re-employment services. The State of Missouri is hosting virtual meetings on Thursday, January 28, 2021 for those workers. If you would like to be invited to this informational meeting, please email Karen Scofield, Trade Act Navigator at karen.scofield@dhewd.mo.gov.
