In this episode of Chamber Amplified from the Findlay-Hancock County Chamber of Commerce, Doug Jenkins talks with Amanda Fisher of Corporate Intelligence Consultants about e-Verify, the federal employment verification system, and why a new Ohio requirement means more employers may need to pay attention right now.
While e-Verify has long been used by federal contractors and other employers, Ohio is now adding a new mandate for certain non-residential contractors, with implications that can extend to subcontractors and staffing agencies as well. Amanda breaks down what e-Verify is, how it works alongside the I-9 process, what employers in Ohio should be doing now, and why this is more than just another piece of HR paperwork.
The conversation covers:
- What e-Verify is and how it works
- Which Ohio employers may be affected by the new law
- Why subcontractors and staffing agencies should pay attention
- What risks and fines come with noncompliance
- Why policies, contracts, and internal processes matter just as much as enrollment
- Where employers can go for reliable guidance
If you’re a business owner, HR leader, contractor, or staffing partner this episode is a timely look at a compliance issue that could have a real impact on your hiring process.
