Oregon Paid Family Leave
Effective January 1, 2023
The Oregon contribution rate for 2023 is 1% of each employee’s wages, up to a maximum of $132,900 for the year. Employees pay 60% of the contribution rate and employers pay 40% of the contribution rate. For example, if an employee made $1,000 in wages, the employee would pay $6 and the employer would pay $4 for this paycheck. Employers with fewer than 25 employees are not required to pay the employer portion of contributions.
