JobsOhio staff’s full pay unreported

- By Randy Ludlow

State law requires JobsOhio to report the “total compensati­on” of its employees. But the agency continues to report only its staff members’ taxable income, not their total compensati­on.

Even with the underrepor­ting, 34 workers show at least six-figure salaries.

In its 2017 filings with the state, Gov. John Kasich’s privatized economicde­velopment agency again reported employees’ taxable income — which does not include salary diverted to, for example, nontaxable retirement contributi­ons and health-insurance costs — instead of their gross income.
