(B) The department of job and family services, in consultation with representatives designated by the county commissioners association of Ohio and the Ohio job and family services directors association, shall establish an evaluation system that rates each county department of job and family services in terms of its success with helping public assistance recipients obtain employment that enables the recipients to cease relying on public assistance. A county department of job and family services may implement an evaluation system established by the Ohio department of job and family services to evaluate an individual caseworker's success in helping a public assistance recipient obtain employment that enables the recipient to cease relying on public assistance.
(C) The department shall design the evaluation system established under this section in a manner that encourages caseworkers and county departments to increase their success with helping public assistance recipients obtain employment that enables the recipients to cease relying on public assistance. The system shall provide for caseworkers' and county departments' ratings under the system to be updated at least annually.
