AI Summary

  • Employers who provide vacation leave or personal business leave must compensate employees for all earned but unused accrued leave at the employee's regular rate of pay when employment terminates

  • Accrued unused sick leave must be paid out upon termination, resignation, retirement, or other separation from employment, following the same payment timelines required for final wages under ORS 652.140

  • Commission or piece-rate employees must receive sick leave payouts at least at minimum wage; employees paid hourly/weekly/monthly plus commission receive the higher of their regular wage or minimum wage

  • Final wage payment deadlines apply: by end of first business day after discharge/termination by mutual agreement; immediately if employee quits with 48+ hours notice; within five days or next payday if employee quits without notice

  • Removes prior requirement for employers to restore unused sick time to employees rehired within 180 days, since sick leave is now paid out at separation
