The Oregon Rule
Weekly 40 + daily 10-hour limits in manufacturing/mills. General rule is weekly 40; manufacturing establishments add daily OT after 10 hours with absolute hour caps.
Worked Examples
Example 1 — weekly OT. $22/hour, 46 hours: 6 OT hours × $33 = $198 premium on top of straight time — the federal baseline that applies in every state.
Example 2 — the daily dimension. A 10-hour day here adds 2 daily-OT hours even in a short week — the state layer federal-only calculators miss.
Example 3 — the regular rate. Nondiscretionary bonuses and shift differentials fold into the rate BEFORE the 1.5x — a $22 base with $2 differential makes OT $36, not $33; systematic base-only OT is recoverable back pay.
Who Is Exempt in Oregon
Salary alone exempts no one: the duties tests (executive/administrative/professional) plus the salary threshold decide — check the line. Misclassified salaried staff recover 2-3 years of OT.
Claims and Records
Keep personal hour logs (courts accept reasonable employee reconstructions), compare payslips against this math, and file with the state labor agency or federal DOL — FLSA adds liquidated-damages doubling. For daily-rule comparisons, California remains the strictest (its ladder here).
