The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) announced last week that employers can receive federal tax credits for hiring individuals from certain designated groups. Credits of up to $9,600 are available for employers who hire employees who are restored citizens, public assistance recipients, individuals with disabilities and others who may face barriers to employment. Applications can be submitted on the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) page on the ODJFS webpage. 5/30/2024
