Starting on September 3, 2023, Oregon employees will be able to apply for benefits under Oregon’s Paid Leave Oregon program.
Are you ready? If not, you’re not alone. The law created a lot of questions. In particular:
- What are my obligations as an employer?
- How does this work with existing legally required protected leaves such as the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Oregon Family Leave Act (OFLA)?
- How much additional work is HR required to do?
- Are my employees even going to show up anymore?
Alas, the administrative regulations released by the Oregon Employment Department don’t answer them all. Vigilant is here to help.
In this webinar recording, we review what to expect from Paid Leave Oregon, how to prepare, and when to implement changes to your leave policies and administration processes. This webinar will also help you navigate the unanswered questions of Paid Leave Oregon, including when to apply prudent business judgment, when to exercise caution, and when to hit the brakes and call an employment attorney
