Ohio Department of Job and Family Services
During his time as director of ODJFS, Hayes oversaw a department that employed 3,700 employees and had an annual budget of more than $15 billion. As director, Hayes created a performance center for the department, federally certified a child support computer system, and started an online job-matching system. In 2002, Hayes argued with Hamilton County over the ownership of $8 million of welfare money. In response to the Controversial Ohio database searches of Joe Wurzelbacher, Hayes stated that the ODJFS, during his tenure as director, did not conduct searches due to an individual's status being raised to "celebrity."
Ohio Lottery Commission
In 2005, Hayes became the director of the Ohio Lottery Commission. In August 2006, Hayes resigned after accepting a job with Cuyahoga County as project manager for the county's board of elections.
