3/16/2020 Update - 5:30 p.m.: Industrial Commission hearings will now be limited to phone hearings. Hearing Officers will call all parties by conference call. Representatives must upload the ICON document type HRGCONTACT for each claim to provide the best number to be contacted for hearings. Please visit the Industrial Commission website for further details.
All Ohio Industrial Commission hearings will be suspended Monday, March 16 and Tuesday, March 17, 2020.
