Non-Urban Counties, Oregon Local Minimum Wage for 2023, 2024
While Oregon's state minimum wage is $14.20 per hour, Non-Urban Counties has set its own, higher minimum wage rate that applies to employees of all companies who work within Non-Urban Counties. A minimum wage increase is currently scheduled in Non-Urban Counties, but until the effective date of the state minimum wage rate of $14.20 will apply.
Because Non-Urban Counties has a higher minimum wage rate than the one set by Oregon or the Federal government, the higher local minimum wage rate takes precedence and must be paid to all employees covered by the local minimum wage regulation.
