Veterans' Employment and Training Service

The United States Office of the Assistant Secretary for Veterans' Employment and Training (OASVET) was established by Secretary's Order No. 5-81 in December 1981.

The Assistant Secretary position was created by P.L. 96-466 in October 1980, to replace the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Veterans' Employment position created by P.L. 94-502 in October 1976. The bipartisan Congressional intent was to establish leadership of the Department's programs for services to veterans at the policy-making level, and thereby help to ensure that Congressional mandates for:"an effective:#job and job training counseling service program,:#employment placement service program, and:#job training placement service program for eligible veterans" are carried out by the United States Department of Labor.
