WorkWORLD provides instant reference to federal and state policies and procedures through a comprehensive and evolving Help/Information system. Examples include:

• SSI Federal Benefit Rates for the Year 2000
• State SSI Supplement Maximums for the Year 2000
• State 1619b Threshold Amounts for the Year 2000
• Worker's Compensation Rates for the Year 2000

Cases saved in previous versions of WorkWORLD can be automatically converted to new versions of the software as they are released on a semi-annual basis.

WorkWORLD calculates net income effects of using work incentives and going to work by providing graphic, text, and numerical results to compare different work incentive plans, allowing consumers and families to choose the most positive outcomes.

WorkWORLD reduces potential costly errors by permitting counselors and their clients to examine possible scenarios and their outcomes on a virtual platform before taking actions.

Service providers can use WorkWORLD's file import/export capabilities to exchange files for review and to add new data with confidence in the confidentiality protections built into the software.
