Oregon employers may want to be aware that on March 7, 2022,
Governor Kate Brown signed into law amendments to the state's
Equal Pay Act detailed in Senate Bill (SB) 1514. As a result,
Oregon employers may offer vaccine incentives, hiring bonuses, and
retention bonuses until 180 days after the expiration of the
COVID-19 state of emergency without running afoul of the Equal Pay
Act. As we
previously reported, the Oregon Legislative Assembly
passed
SB 1514 recently.
