Companies' Welfare Hiring Status
By The Associated Press Tuesday, May 26, 1998; 1:15 a.m. EDT
Large U.S. companies that have programs to hire welfare recipients, are planning programs or have no plans for such a program. The location of the company's headquarters is shown after each name.
The list includes the 100 largest companies, measured by 1997 revenue, plus the 50 largest employers, as determined by Fortune magazine's annual survey. Due to overlap in these two groups, there are a total of 111 companies.
The Associated Press conducted interviews with representatives for each company:
