Work Partners

The thrust behind FAYCO’s Work Partners program is to help local employers with understanding the many benefits they will enjoy when they hire workers that we have screened and are able to perform the work the employer needs to have done. Placement is a cooperative effort between FAYCO and the business and industrial community to find competitive employment opportunities for a qualified worker.

Please ask us how FAYCO’s Employment Services may be an additional resource to help you. Work Partner appointments may be held at 1313 Sunset Dr. in Vandalia, Illinois, or 512 Locust St. in Hillsboro, Illinois.

Skill development centers, such as our workshops in Vandalia and Hillsboro, offer jobs at wages that are based on the skill-set of the person doing the job. The worker protection legislation known as Section 14(c) of the Fair Labor Standards Act ensures access to these types of jobs for those individuals that qualify.

There is an 8-minute video on YouTube (embedded below) that does an excellent job of explaining how we pay the people we work with in our agency. It is called “Putting Success Within Reach—Commensurate Wage Illustration 2012” and explains the fair pay practices of community rehabilitation programs. This video is very well produced and we encourage everyone—individuals, family, the businesses we work with, and the general public—to view it. It is closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.

Industrial Work Programs

FAYCO has evolved from a simple work activity center to a fully developed skill development center for adults with intellectual/developmentlal disabilities.

Through contracts with local industries, FAYCO Enterprises has performed many services for a number of items and products. Custom product packaging is a typical service.

FAYCO has a fully operational manufacturing plant where products can be made. Manufacturers are afforded a valuable annex to their plants to help offset the cost of their contracts.

FAYCO employs people who want to work; to do work that you have difficulty staffing; to deliver high quality levels you could not achieve. And, we can do this work at very competitive costs.

If your business or manufacturing center would be interested in this type of program, please feel free to Contact Us.
