State Seeks Ohio Employer Feedback with In-Demand Jobs Survey
COLUMBUS, OHIO – Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) Director Matt Damschroder today announced the opening of the latest In-Demand Jobs Survey for Ohio businesses to provide feedback on the state’s In-Demand Jobs List.
“Tracking Ohio’s top jobs helps paint the picture of Ohio’s workforce needs,” said Damschroder. “Understanding the future labor market helps us plan programming and ultimately helps inform students and job seekers looking at potential careers.”
ODJFS manages the survey in partnership with the Governor’s Office of Workforce Transformation and the InnovateOhio Platform. It allows businesses to offer input on Ohio’s current and future in-demand jobs in just minutes.
Ohio is required to maintain an up-to-date In-Demand Jobs List that directs the spending of 85% of federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act training funds. Although not required, Ohio surveys employers to ensure that state programs meet business needs. The DeWine administration launched an updated and streamlined survey in 2019 to gather feedback on how the state could help job seekers connect to job opportunities. Information on top jobs can be found at topjobs.ohio.gov.
The current survey is open to all businesses registered in Ohio, giving small and large businesses alike the opportunity to shape how Ohio prepares people for the workforce.
The In-Demand Jobs Survey is available now to businesses at: https://topjobs.ohio.gov/survey#/
Ohio’s updated In-Demand Jobs List will be published at the end of 2025.
