Contractor/Subcontractor Utilization Plan (WE-20) - This form must be submitted by the company holding the contract with the City of Cincinnati and approved by the Department of Economic Inclusion prior to the commencement of construction. Once this form has been submitted, if additional subcontractors are to be utilized, a supplemental WE-20 must be submitted for approval of those subcontractors.

A separate WE-30 also must be completed by each contractor or subcontractor that is to perform work under the contract and submitted with the Contractor/Subcontractor Utilization Plan (WE-20) for approval by the Department of Economic Inclusion.
When a contract is subject to the Wage Enforcement Ordinance, these additional documents may be necessary:

If there has been no formal complaint filed with the U.S. Department of Labor, the Ohio Department of Commerce, or any other agency with the jurisdiction to investigate and adjudicate those allegations, the information should be reported on a Complaint of Wage Theft or Payroll Fraud (WE-50).
