On Jan. 8, 2025, the Governor of Ohio signed into law HB 106 which requires that every employer provide each of its employees with a written or electronic statement or access to a statement of the employee's earnings and deductions for each pay period on the employer's regular paydays.

Current Ohio law does not require that employers provide a pay statement to its employees.

The City of Columbus, Ohio, has enacted an ordinance to prohibit certain employers from inquiring about an applicant’s pay history. The ordinance takes effect on March 1, 2024.
