Agency Overview
Our mission is to serve injured workers and Ohio employers through expeditious and impartial resolution of issues arising from workers’ compensation claims and through the establishment of adjudication policy.
Workers’ compensation insurance provides medical benefits and compensation to workers who suffer an injury or illness due to their employment. While the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) is the exclusive provider of workers’ compensation benefits in Ohio, the Ohio Industrial Commission (IC) is the state agency responsible for adjudicating all contested claims matters.
The Industrial Commission,
Columbus Regional and Mansfield District Office, are seeking experienced licensed attorneys, preferably with Ohio workers’ compensation experience. Candidates must be customer focused and be able to professionally handle a high volume of work adjudicating first level administrative hearings. All individuals must be willing to follow policies and procedures, be able to travel to OIC offices, and manage time efficiently.
