# [Ohio Employers: Prepare for Mandatory Detailed Pay Statements Starting April 9, 2025](https://blog.ahola.com/ohio-employers-prepare-for-mandatory-detailed-pay-statements)

Beginning April 9, 2025, all Ohio employers will be required to provide detailed pay statements to their employees, marking a significant shift in the state's payroll reporting practices. Previously, Ohio was among the few states that did not mandate employers to furnish pay stubs.

# **Key Requirements of the New Law:**

On each regular payday, employers must supply a pay statement—either in written or electronic form—that includes the following details for the pay period:

- **Employee’s Name and Address**
- **Employer’s Name**
- **Total Gross Wages Paid**
- **Total Net Wages Paid**
- **Amount and Purpose of Each Addition or Deduction from Wages**
- **Date Paid and Pay Period**
- **For Hourly Employees:** 
    - Total Hours Worked
    - Number of Overtime Hours
    - Hourly Wage Paid

Employers have the flexibility to deliver these pay statements in written form, electronically, or by granting employees access to this information via an online portal. Transitioning to [paperless payroll ](https://blog.ahola.com/the-benefits-of-paperless-payroll)<https://blog.ahola.com/the-benefits-of-paperless-payroll>can streamline this process and enhance security.

# **Action Steps for Employers:**

To ensure compliance with the upcoming mandate, employers should:

1. **Review Payroll Systems:** Assess current payroll processes to ensure they can capture, and report all required information.
2. **Implement Necessary Changes:** Update payroll software or collaborate with payroll service providers to accommodate the new reporting requirements.
3. **Educate Employees:** Inform employees about the upcoming changes and how they can access their pay statements.

By proactively addressing these changes, Ohio employers can ensure a smooth transition to the new pay statement requirements and maintain compliance with state labor laws.
