Guide to Oklahoma State Agencies
Use Oklahoma state agencies for information vital to your business
By Patti Richards, Free Lance Writer, PGWRites Communications
State of Oklahoma agencies also provide direct access to people looking for work. OK state agencies work to connect business owners with quality people looking for jobs in the state of Oklahoma.
Oklahoma legislative agencies keep both consumers and business owners safe by making sure employers and employees keep standards set by law makers in the areas of hygiene, safe food handling, on the job safety and drug free workplace requirements. Business owners know Oklahoma state agencies are there to protect citizens. Business owners use an Oklahoma state agency listing to:
1. Find and keep quality employees from the Oklahoma state employment agency.
2. Stay up to date on codes and requirements for employee and customer health and safety.
3. Maintain a high level of service in the tourism industry through the Oklahoma state tourism agency.
4. Keep current on background checks through the OK state agencies on crime control.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Use the Oklahoma state employment agency to find potential employees
During tough economic times, business owners face the challenge of finding quality employees. The Oklahoma state employment office helps bridge the gap between qualified employees looking for jobs in their field and employers needing to fill crucial positions.
I recommend: Visit the State of Oklahoma Employment Securities Commission or the Oklahoma Job Link websites for current information on persons seeking employment.
Keep up with health and safety codes from the Oklahoma government agencies
No business owner wants a negative report from the Oklahoma health department, especially if you're in food service or the health industry. Take time to check for code violations before you get a citation from an Oklahoma state agency.
I recommend: Find health code related information at the Oklahoma Department of Public Health and safety information from the Oklahoma division of OSHA.
Get information about tourism trends from the OK state agencies on tourism
One of Oklahoma's cash generators is tourism. Using reports from different tourism agencies help business owners plan and attract tourists throughout the year.
I recommend: Visit TravelOK.com or the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department for information on tourism trends in Oklahoma.
Do thorough and appropriate background checks through Oklahoma state agencies
Let's face it; no business owner wants to hire an employee with a criminal record unless they have an opportunity to make an informed decision. Thorough background investigations through the state help business owners make good choices when hiring people with a challenging background.
I recommend: Connect with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections and the Oklahoma State Courts Network for information on criminal background checks for potential employees.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- • If you're not sure which state agency you need for answers to your business questions, ask for more information. Oklahoma state agencies regularly refer business owners' questions to the appropriate department.
