1. Beginning July 1, 2018, and thereafter, the department of elementary and secondary education shall pay monthly, out of the funds appropriated to it for that purpose, to each sheltered workshop a sum equal to the amount calculated under subsection 2 of this section but at least the amount necessary to ensure that at least twenty-one dollars is paid for each six-hour or longer day worked by a handicapped employee for each standard workweek of up to and including thirty-eight hours worked. For each handicapped worker employed by a sheltered workshop for less than a thirty-eight-hour week or a six-hour day, the workshop shall receive a percentage of the corresponding amount normally paid based on the percentage of time worked by the handicapped employee.
2. In order to calculate the monthly amount due to each sheltered workshop, the department shall:
(1) Determine the quotient obtained by dividing the appropriation for the fiscal year by twelve; and
(2) Divide the amount calculated under subdivision (1) of this subsection among the sheltered workshops in proportion to each sheltered workshop's number of hours submitted to the department for the preceding calendar month.
3. The department shall accept, as prima facie proof of payment due to a sheltered workshop, information as designated by the department, either in paper or electronic format. A statement signed by the president, secretary, and manager of the sheltered workshop, setting forth the dates worked and the number of hours worked each day by each handicapped person employed by that sheltered workshop during the preceding calendar month, together with any other information required by the rules or regulations of the department, shall be maintained at the workshop location.
