Abstract
This research work has been conducted at Woreda level in order to assess the implementation
procedures of Productive Safety Net Program placed in its implementation manual to its
enforcement. The respondents for the survey were sampled randomly ajier stratifYing for
addressing gender proportionality of the respondents. FGD participants were arranged both
from non- beneficiary HHs and beneficimy HHs who were not included in the survey sample.
Data was collected Fom both p r imary and secondmy sources. The primary data has been

mainly focused on targeting, transfer, public work, procedural gaps, and asset creation and
prevention Fom depletion if th e implementation rules set for th e program are maintained. The
data gathered has been analyzed using percentages and tables as the study is a type of
descriptive with qualitative approachfor most case. Major findings are on targeting where there
has be en i70 fillnily included in to the program with its full members, though the selection was
participatory Iype . Except jiJr preference in type, delay in time, absence of defe rring and
insufficiency in amount has been a trend in transfer in the study area, Own farm activities and
peak agricultural season faced challenge due to clash of P Ws scheduled without participatory
planning approach and involvement of benefiCiaries and lack of d4erring work calendar. The
targeted beneficiary HHs has been included with only half percent of their members. No other
food security program packag~ exercised thus creating sustainable livelihood assets for the
ben~ficiaries seems in question. Addressing the leji filmilies untargeted, deferring trend in PW
calendar and planning, facili tating OFSP access are crucial issues if reconsidered. Amount is
also advised ifllmended. Graduation of the N 1-1.\' ./i 'om th e program is tllking a IYl'e offorcing
approach, may be done simply to jit/jill the agreement made between th e Go vernment and the
funding agents, as the HHs are not having access to resources to create additional assets.
