Change lives and build your workforce.
The Ohio Laborers Apprenticeship office has recently made a breakthrough with the state of Ohio to receive access to resumes of restored citizens re-entering the workforce. With this access, our office can now match and search for individuals with interest in the construction industry.
We implore contractors to consider offering a second chance to Ohio’s restored citizens. Hiring someone with a criminal record is good for people and the economy, decreases the risk of recidivism, promotes a valuable U.S. talent pool, and helps reduce the growing skills gap. Hiring restored citizens also offers tax incentives for your company. Finally, hiring restored citizens provides a life-changing opportunity for individuals to start a new life and a valuable career.
