JobsOhio Offers up to $225,000 Business Incentive for Relocating Stem and Technical Hires to Ohio

August 12, 2025

JobsOhio announced the JobsOhio Relocation Incentive offering Ohio employers in targeted industries $15,000 for each qualifying out-of-state STEM or technical hire they successfully relocate to Ohio, up to $225,000 per company. The incentive is part of JobsOhio’s strategy to expand the state’s skilled workforce as economic growth creates unprecedented demand for specialized talent. Employers of all sizes can now apply at jobsohio.com/relo.

“Ohio’s economic comeback continues, and that momentum puts our state in an enviable position of preparing to fill hundreds of thousands of STEM and technical jobs coming online by 2032,” said JobsOhio President and CEO J.P. Nauseef. “Ohio's exceptional workforce, the most productive in the Midwest and amongst the most productive in America, remains a major strength and a key attraction for employers. This new program gives Ohio businesses another powerful tool in the fierce competition nationally for candidates with the high-demand skills driving our growth.”
