Ohio’s workers’ compensation system is delivering results, and manufacturers will get a closer look at what comes next during the Ohio Manufacturers’ Association (OMA) Safety and Workers’ Compensation Committee meeting on Sept. 17.

Employers have received $10.2 billion in BWC dividends during Gov. Mike DeWine’s administration, with another $1 billion recently approved.

“Ohio has built one of the strongest workers’ compensation systems in the country, and Gov. DeWine and BWC leadership deserve real credit for protecting employers, strengthening the fund and returning billions of dollars to the businesses that paid into it,” said Jacob Sargent, OMA director of public policy services. “Those are results worth protecting.”

The Sept. 17 meeting will give manufacturers a timely look at the policies, performance and decisions shaping Ohio’s workers’ compensation system. 9/10/2026
