If the assignment is terminated, the appropriate local office must be contacted. However, a pattern of ending FEP participants prior to completing of the FEP employment shall result in the FEP employer being excluded from participation in the program.(D) After 12 months in a placement, regardless of whether the FEP participant has been hired for an unsubsidized position, the subsidy to the FEP employer shall be ended.
