Too few companies know and too few states participate in this program that helps avoid layoffs while reducing hours.

Thanks for the comment. I think one of the key ideas the article communicates is that this will only work with industries that have a hope of bouncing back. For some, the financial crisis has merely uncovered a crumbling foundation, the result of rapidly changing markets, and for these industries preventing the inevitable job loss may be pointless.
