Minimum Wage in Oregon

Depends on where you work. From July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027: $16.80 per hour inside the Portland metro urban growth boundary; $15.55 standard rate (Benton, Clatsop, Columbia, Deschutes, Hood River, Jackson, Josephine, Lane, Lincoln, Linn, Marion, Polk, Tillamook, Wasco, Yamhill, and parts of Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington outside the Portland boundary); $14.55 in non-urban counties (Baker, Coos, Crook, Curry, Douglas, Gilliam, Grant, Harney, Jefferson, Klamath, Lake, Malheur, Morrow, Sherman, Umatilla, Union, Wallowa and Wheeler). Workers are generally paid the rate for the county where they work at least half their hours. The same minimum applies to minors, and there is no training wage.

No tip credit. Tipped workers must be paid the full Oregon minimum wage for their area, and tips are extra.

Time and one-half for hours over 40 in a workweek. In mills, factories and other manufacturing establishments, workers generally may not work more than 10 hours a day or 55 hours a week (up to 60 with written consent); daily overtime hours there are paid at time and one-half, and the employer pays the greater of daily or weekly overtime. Sawmills, planing mills, shingle mills and logging camps have an 8-hour-day, 48-hour-week limit.
