On June 3, 2025, the Oregon Employment Department announced the annual adjustment to the minimum and maximum weekly benefit amounts for Paid Leave Oregon claims. Each year, the Employment Department recalculates these benefit amounts based on the state average weekly wage, which reflects the average wages of all employees across Oregon. For Paid Leave Oregon claims with benefit years that begin on or after July 6, 2025, the minimum weekly benefit amount will increase to $68.19 per week, and the maximum weekly benefit amount will increase to $1,636.56 per week. Claimants whose Paid Leave Oregon benefit year begins before July 6, 2025, will be subject to the 2024 minimum and maximum weekly benefit amounts for the duration of their benefit year.
Employers should be aware of this update and should review the announcement for further details.
