Ohio HB701 amends juvenile offender employment qualifications and workers' compensation self-insurance rules.

Ohio HB701 modifies the qualifications for employing minors, allowing those aged 16 and 17 to work in nonagricultural and nonhazardous jobs without a certificate if they provide proof of age and parental consent. It also revises the rules for self-insuring employers under the Ohio Workers' Compensation Law, including criteria for granting self-insurance status, application processes, and the responsibilities of self-insuring employers. The bill includes provisions for safety programs, ombudspersons, and the handling of claims and penalties for late payments.
