What is WOTC

Get rewarded for your diverse hiring efforts

The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) is a federal income tax credit that's available to businesses that hire members of groups who have consistently faced significant barriers to employment. Workstream and our partners make it easier to participate in this program by handling the tedious part of the application process for you. Here's how it works:
