Oregon Minimum Wage Rates Going Up, July 1

Oregon’s labor commissioner announced increases in the state’s three minimum-wage rates starting July 1. On that date, the three new rates will be:
  • Standard Minimum Wage: $14.20 per hour
  • Portland Metro Minimum Wage: $15.45 per hour
  • Non-Urban Minimum Wage: $13.20 per hour
According to a news release issued by the Bureau of Labor & Industries, “The current standard minimum wage rate is $13.50. Based on an increase in the CPI of 5.0% from March 2022 to March 2023, the calculation used for determining the standard minimum wage rate as of July 1, 2023 is as follows: $13.50 X .05 = $0.675, rounded to $0.70.” Suggests the Bullard Law firm, “Employers are also reminded to update their worksite posters with these new minimum wage rates. If employers have any remote workers, employers are advised to take photographs of the updated worksite posters and circulate them via email to employees to ensure their receipt.”
