    • The WOTC is a Federal tax credit for employers who hire qualifying individuals. Every employee a company hires from ECI qualifies for this credit. Employers generally can earn a tax credit equal to 25% to 40% of a new employee’s first-year wages, depending on how many hours the employee works.
