Oklahomans who have gone back to work since the COVID-19 pandemic could be eligible for a $1,200 back-to-work incentive.

“Oklahoma businesses were hit extremely hard by the pandemic and eventually faced an unprecedented labor shortage,” Shelley Zumwalt, executive director of Oklahoma Employment Security Commission, told The Center Square. “When the return-to-work incentive was announced in late May, there were nearly 200,000 employable Oklahomans who had not returned to the workforce.”
