Department pursuant to the authorized representativeÂ’s examination shall be
accompanied by a signed statement that such information is true and correct to
the best of the individualÂ’s knowledge. Notice of the decision need not be

The amendment shall be made by written notice which provides for a right of appeal pursuant to ORS 657.269. The amendment must be issued within one year of the original decision to allow payment, except in cases of alleged willful misrepresentation or fraud. A decision requiring notice, made pursuant to this section, may be amended unless it has become a final decision under ORS 657.269. [1993 c.778 §7; 1997 c.59 §1]
     657.268

the subject claim for waiting week credit or for benefits. On the basis of the
facts available, the authorized representative shall promptly make a decision.
Written notice stating the reasons for the decision shall be given to both the
claimant and the base-year employer that has filed such information. [1993
c.778 §8]

within 20 days after delivery of such notice or, if mailed, within 20 days
after the same was mailed to the partyÂ’s last-known address, files with the
Director of the Employment Department a request for hearing upon the decision,
it shall be final and benefits shall be paid or denied in accordance therewith,
unless otherwise provided by law. If the decision is to allow benefits, the
director shall pay such benefits regardless of any pending hearing on the
claim. [1993 c.778 §9]
     657.270
Hearing; application for review; dismissal of request for hearing. (1) When
a request for hearing upon the claim has been filed, as provided in ORS 657.266
to 657.269, an administrative law judge from the Office of Administrative
Hearings established under ORS 183.605 shall be assigned to conduct such
hearing. The Director of the Employment Department shall notify the parties, in
plain language, of their right, upon their request, to receive by mail copies
of all documents and records in the possession of the Employment Department
relevant to the decision of the authorized representative, including any
statements of the claimant, employer or employerÂ’s agents.
     (2) When the hearing is conducted by telephone, the director shall mail all parties copies of all documents and records in the possession of the director that will be introduced at the hearing as exhibits, including any statements of the claimant, employer or employer’s agents, and all jurisdictional documents, at least seven days prior to the hearing.

     (3) After the administrative law judge has given all parties reasonable opportunity for a fair hearing, the administrative law judge shall promptly affirm, modify or set aside the decision of the authorized representative with respect to the claim. The administrative law judge promptly shall notify all parties entitled to notice of the decision of the authorized representative, as set forth in ORS 657.266 to 657.269, of the administrative law judge’s decision, including a dismissal of the request for hearing as provided in subsection (6) of this section, and reasons therefor. The administrative law judge may address issues raised by evidence in the record, including but not limited to the nature of the separation, notwithstanding the scope of the issues raised by the parties or the arguments in a party’s request for hearing.
     (4) Except as provided in subsection (6) of this section, unless the director or any other party to the hearing, within 20 days after the delivery of such notification, or if mailed, within 20 days after the same was mailed to the party’s last-known address, files with the Employment Appeals Board an application for review, such decision shall be final.
     (5) When the claimant or the employer is unrepresented at the hearing, the administrative law judge shall explain the issues involved in the hearing and the matters that the unrepresented claimant or the employer must either prove or disprove. The administrative law judge shall ensure that the record developed at the hearing shows a full and fair inquiry into the facts necessary for consideration of all issues properly before the administrative law judge in the case. As used in this section, a claimant or employer is “unrepresented” if not represented by an attorney, paralegal worker, legal assistant, union representative or person otherwise qualified by experience or training.

     (G) The request for hearing is made by a person who is not entitled to a hearing or is not the authorized representative of a party who is entitled to a hearing.
     (b) A dismissal by the administrative law judge under this subsection is final unless the party whose request for hearing has been dismissed files, within 20 days after the dismissal notice was mailed to the party’s last-known address, an application for review as provided under this chapter.
     (c) Notwithstanding paragraph (b) of this subsection, a requesting party whose request has been dismissed because that party failed to appear as provided in paragraph (a)(C) of this subsection may file a request to reopen the hearing.

Department or any interested party files with the Employment Appeals Board a
timely application for review, the board shall promptly affirm, modify or set
aside the decision of the administrative law judge. The board shall promptly
notify the claimant and any other interested party of its decision. If the
board finds that additional evidence is required to reach a decision, it may
remand the matter to the administrative law judge to conduct a hearing to
obtain additional evidence in the matter. The board shall promptly notify the
claimant and any other interested party of such action. The administrative law
judge may either make a new decision based on the additional and original
evidence or forward the additional evidence to the board for a decision. If the
administrative law judge issues a new decision, it shall be subject to review
in accordance with the provisions of ORS 657.270 (4).

The board may address issues raised by evidence in the record, including but not limited to the nature of a separation, notwithstanding the scope of the issues raised by the parties, the arguments set forth in a party’s application for review or the parties’ written or oral arguments. The board may enter its own findings and conclusions or may adopt the findings and conclusions of the administrative law judge, or any part thereof. When there is evidence in the record both to make more probable and less probable the existence of any basic fact or inference, the board need not explain its decision to believe or rely on such evidence unless the administrative law judge has made an explicit credibility determination regarding the source of such facts or evidence. The board is not required to give any weight to implied credibility findings. The decision of the board shall become the final order unless a petition for judicial review is filed in accordance with ORS 657.282.

director or the Employment Appeals Board involving disputed claims, excepting
charge for services rendered by counsel or other agent representing the

of administering this chapter, and no individual claiming benefits shall be

designated by the director may combine a decision under ORS 657.266, 657.267 or
657.268 with a decision under ORS 657.310 or 657.315. [2005 c.182 §2]
     657.310
Recovery or deduction of benefits paid because of misrepresentation by
recipient. (1) If the Director of the Employment Department decides that an
individual received any benefits under this chapter to which the individual is
not entitled because the individual, regardless of the individualÂ’s knowledge
or intent, made or caused to be made a false statement or misrepresentation of
a material fact, or failed to disclose a material fact, the individual is
liable:
     (a) To repay the amount of the benefits to the director for the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund; or
     (b) To have the amount of the benefits deducted from any future benefits otherwise payable to the individual under this chapter.
     (2) A decision of the director under this section does not authorize the recovery of the amount of any benefits paid to an individual until the decision is final and the decision specifies:
     (a) That the individual, by reason of the false statement, misrepresentation or nondisclosure, is liable to repay the amount to the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund;
     (b) The nature of the false statement, misrepresentation or nondisclosure; and
     (c) The week or weeks for which the benefits were paid.
     (3) Any amount subject to recovery under this section may be collected by the director in a civil action against the individual brought in the name of the director. Judgment rendered shall bear interest at the rate provided in subsection (4) of this section. The amount collected, not including interest, shall be paid into the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund.
     (4) Interest on any amount liable to be repaid under this section shall be paid and collected at the same time repayment of benefits is made by the individual to the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund, at the rate of one percent per month beginning on the first day of the month following 60 days after the finality of the administrative decision establishing the overpayment. In computing interest under this subsection, a fraction of a month is counted as a full month.
     (5) Deductions from unemployment insurance benefits shall be applied solely to the amount of the benefits liable to be repaid under this section. All other payments shall be applied first to court costs, then to interest, then to the amount liable to be repaid.
     (6) Interest collected under this section shall be paid into the Employment Department Special Fraud Control Fund in accordance with the provisions of ORS 657.400. [Amended by 1963 c.14 §1; 1997 c.372 §1; 2005 c.182 §3]
     657.315
Recovery or deduction of benefits paid erroneously. (1) If the Director of
the Employment Department decides that an individual has been paid benefits to
which the individual is not entitled because of an error not due to the
individual providing a false statement or misrepresentation of a material fact or
not disclosing a material fact, or because an initial decision to pay benefits
is subsequently reversed by a decision finding the individual is not eligible
for the benefits, the individual is liable to have the amount deducted from any
future benefits otherwise payable to the individual under this chapter for any
week or weeks within 52 weeks following the week in which the decision
establishing the erroneous payment became final.
     (2) A decision of the director under this section does not authorize the recovery of the amount of any benefits paid to an individual until the decision is final and the decision specifies that the individual is liable to have the amount deducted from any future benefits otherwise payable under this chapter for any week or weeks within 52 weeks following the week in which the decision establishing the erroneous payment became final.
     (3) Amounts paid to an individual in excess of the maximum benefits allowable pursuant to this chapter may be recovered in a civil action brought in the name of the director for such purpose. [Amended by 1971 c.77 §2; 1975 c.284 §3; 1977 c.400 §6; 1993 c.778 §18; 2005 c.182 §4]
     657.317
Waiving recovery of benefits; effect of finding of noncompliance with federal
law. (1) The Director of the Employment Department shall waive recovery of
benefits under ORS 657.315 if the director finds that the benefits are
recoverable due to a change in federal or state law, the application of which
has caused the disqualification of benefits previously paid.
     (2) If the United States Secretary of Labor serves notice that the provisions of subsection (1) of this section fail to meet the requirements of the Social Security Act or the Federal Unemployment Tax Act then subsection (1) of this section shall no longer be of any force or effect.
     (3) The director may waive establishment and recovery of overpaid benefits when no decision has been issued under ORS 657.310 or 657.315 and the amount of the overpayment is less than one-half of the maximum weekly benefit amount in effect at the time the overpayment is discovered. [1983 c.528 §§6,7; 1995 c.105 §7]
     657.320
Cancellation of unrecoverable benefits. (1) If any amount paid to an
individual as benefits, for which the individual has been found liable under
the provisions of ORS 657.310 to repay or to have deducted from benefits
payable, has neither been repaid nor so deducted within a period of three years
following the date the decision establishing the improper payment became final,
and is equal to or is less than the state maximum weekly benefit amount or
determined by the Director of the Employment Department to be uncollectible,
the same together with the record thereof and the resulting shortage, shall be
canceled, and such amount, excluding any amount chargeable to reimbursable
employers, shall be permanently charged to the fund. However, such amount shall
not be canceled if the debt is being recovered by payments or deductions which
were received within the last three months nor if repayment of such overpayment
is required under ORS 657.213.
     (2) If an amount paid to an individual as benefits, for which the individual has been found liable under the provisions of ORS 657.315 (1) to have deducted from benefits payable, has neither been repaid nor so deducted from benefits otherwise payable to the individual for any week or weeks within 52 weeks following the week in which the decision establishing the improper payment became final, the same together with the record thereof and the resulting shortage, shall be canceled and such amount, excluding any amount chargeable to reimbursable employers, shall be permanently charged to the fund.
     (3) When in the judgment of the director the best interests of the Employment Department are served in an effort to settle accounts, the director may waive, reduce or compromise any part or all of the interest charged pursuant to ORS 657.310. The director may determine that the amount of interest due and unpaid is uncollectible, and write such amount off. In making the determination that interest is uncollectible, the director shall consider, among other factors:
     (a) The administrative costs of continued collection efforts in relation to the amount due;
     (b) The accessibility of the debtor for effective collection actions; and
     (c) The debtor’s financial condition and ability to pay the amount due, both current and projected. [Amended by 1977 c.294 §5; 1983 c.146 §1; 1997 c.372 §3]

benefits under ORS 657.370 to 657.390 shall be paid, with respect to any week
of unemployment, a weekly shared work unemployment insurance benefit amount.
Such amount shall be equal to the individualÂ’s regular weekly benefit amount
multiplied by the nearest full percentage of reduction of the individualÂ’s
regular weekly hours of work, as set forth in the employerÂ’s plan. The benefit
payment under ORS 657.370 to 657.390, if not a multiple of one dollar, shall be

benefits paid to employees of the employer under such plan during any rating
period for which the employerÂ’s benefit ratio, expressed as a percentage
rounded to the nearest 0.1 percent, is in excess of the employerÂ’s tax rate for
such rating period.
     (2) All reimbursement obligations arising under this section are in addition to and separate from any other obligation imposed under this chapter. At the end of each calendar quarter, the Director of the Employment Department shall determine the amount of reimbursement due to the fund from each employer participant in a shared work plan and shall bill each employer for such amount.

Benefits subject to recovery as lien on real or personal property. (1) If
an individual is liable to repay benefits under ORS 657.310, the amount liable
to be repaid, interest and penalties due shall be a lien in favor of the
Director of the Employment Department upon all property, whether real or
personal, belonging to such individual.
     (2) The lien shall be perfected and attach:
     (a) To real and personal property located within the county, upon the recording of a warrant, as provided in ORS 657.396, with the clerk of the county in which the property is located.
     (b) To personal property wherever located within the state, upon:
     (A) The recording of a warrant, as provided in ORS 657.396, with the clerk of any county; and
     (B) The filing of a copy of the warrant with the Secretary of State as provided in ORS 657.394.
     (3) The lien created by this section may be foreclosed by a suit in the circuit court in the manner provided by law for the foreclosure of other liens on real or personal property. [1997 c.372 §5]

Filing of lien statement or warrant. (1) Any warrant attaching the lien
under ORS 657.392 may also be filed in the office of the Secretary of State.

copy of the statement of lien or the warrant has been recorded with the county
clerk.
     (2) When a copy of the statement of lien or the warrant is filed with the Secretary of State in compliance with subsection (1) of this section, such filing shall have the same effect with respect to personal property as if the copy of the statement of lien or the warrant had been duly recorded with the county clerk in each county of this state.
     (3) A copy of the statement of lien or the warrant so filed with the Secretary of State shall be filed and indexed by the Secretary of State in the same manner as is provided in ORS 79.0501 for the filing and indexing of financing statements. [1997 c.372 §6; 2001 c.445 §178]

Alternative to civil collection action; procedure. (1) In any case in which
the Director of the Employment Department may bring a civil action for the
collection of amounts liable to be repaid under ORS 657.310 or interest on
those amounts, the director may instead:
     (a) Assess a collection charge of $5 if the sum of the amount liable to be repaid or interest then due exceeds $10.
     (b) Issue a warrant under official seal directed to the sheriff of any county of the state commanding the sheriff to levy upon and sell the real and personal property of the individual found within that county, for the payment of the amount liable to be repaid with the added interest, collection charge and the sheriff’s cost of executing the warrant, and to return such warrant to the director and pay to the director the money collected by virtue thereof by a time to be therein specified, but not less than 60 days from the date of the warrant.
     (2) The sheriff shall, within five days after the receipt of the warrant, record with the clerk of the county a copy thereof, and thereupon the clerk shall enter in the County Clerk Lien Record the name of the individual mentioned in the warrant, and the amount liable to be repaid, interest and collection charge for which the warrant is issued and the date when such copy is recorded. Thereupon the amount of the warrant so recorded shall become a lien upon the title to and interest in property of the individual against whom it is issued in the same manner as a judgment that creates a judgment lien under ORS chapter 18. The sheriff thereupon shall proceed upon the same in all respects, with like effect and in the same manner prescribed by law in respect to executions issued against property upon the judgment of a court of record, and shall be entitled to the same fees for services in executing the warrant, to be added to and collected as a part of the warrant liability.
     (3) In the discretion of the director, a warrant of like terms, force and effect may be issued and directed to any agent authorized by the director to collect amounts liable to be repaid and in the execution thereof the agent shall have all the powers conferred by law upon sheriffs, but is entitled to no fee or compensation in excess of actual expenses paid in the performance of such duty.
     (4) If a warrant is returned not satisfied in full, the director shall have the same remedies to enforce the claim for amounts due and interest against the individual as if the director had recovered judgment against the individual for the amount liable to be repaid and interest.
     (5) Interest upon the amounts liable to be repaid as set forth in the warrant shall be paid and collected at the rate prescribed in ORS 657.310. [1997 c.372 §7; 2003 c.576 §216]
     657.398
Release, compromise or satisfaction of lien. Any lien provided for in ORS
657.392 and 657.394 may be released, compromised or satisfied by the Director
of the Employment Department, and the property against which a lien is claimed
shall be released therefrom by filing a notice of such release or satisfaction
with the county clerk of the county in which the notice of lien claim was
filed. [1997 c.372 §8]
     657.400
Employment Department Special Fraud Control Fund. (1) There is established

     657.458 Definitions for
employer tax rate computations. As used in this chapter unless the context
requires otherwise:
     (1) “High benefit cost period” means the 12 consecutive month period in the last 10 completed calendar years in which the benefit cost rate was the highest. The benefit cost rate is determined by dividing the amount of benefits paid attributable to employers subject to the tax, during any 12 consecutive months within the 10-year period by total wages, as defined in ORS 657.105, reported by all employers subject to the tax for the four consecutive calendar quarters which includes the quarter in which the 12 consecutive month period ended. All benefits paid from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund attributable to employers subject to the tax, including but not limited to the Oregon share of extended benefits and any special state additional benefits, shall be included in the amount of benefits under this subsection.
     (2) “Average monthly employment” means the total number of persons employed in each month for 12 consecutive months, as reported by employers subject to the tax under this chapter, divided by 12.
     (3) “Average weekly check amount” means the gross amount of benefit payments, excluding extended benefits, made during a 12 consecutive month period, divided by the number of such weekly payments made to all individuals receiving benefits under this chapter during that period. The number and amount of payments made under section 11, chapter 2, Oregon Laws 1982 (first special session), shall be excluded from the computation under this subsection.
     (4) “Adjusted average weekly check amount” means the average weekly check amount in a calendar year plus one-half of the increase in the maximum weekly benefit amount plus one-half of the increase in the minimum weekly benefit amount from the week including July 4 immediately preceding such calendar year to the week including July 4 immediately following such calendar year. [1969 c.157 §2 (657.458 and 657.459 enacted in lieu of 657.461); 1971 c.463 §15; 1977 c.538 §3; 1983 c.508 §9]
     657.459 Computation of Fund
Adequacy Percentage Ratio. (1) For the purpose of computing employer tax
rates, the Director of the Employment Department, or the directorÂ’s authorized
representative, shall compute a “Fund Adequacy Percentage Ratio.” This computation
shall be made in September of each year and shall be the ratio of the amount in
the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund, as of August 31 preceding the
computation, to a calculated amount of benefits that would be paid during the
following calendar year if high unemployment were to occur. The calculated
amount of benefits shall be determined as follows:
     (a) Average monthly employment in the calendar year preceding the calculation shall be divided by the average monthly employment in the high benefit cost period with the resulting quotient carried to the fourth decimal place.
     (b) The adjusted average weekly check amount for the calendar year preceding the calculation shall be divided by the average weekly check amount in the high benefit cost period with the resulting quotient carried to the fourth decimal place.
     (c) The amount of benefits paid during the high benefit cost period and attributable to employers subject to the tax shall be multiplied by the quotient determined in paragraph (a) of this subsection. The resulting product shall be multiplied by the quotient determined in paragraph (b) of this subsection. All benefits paid from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund attributable to employers subject to the tax, including but not limited to the Oregon share of extended benefits and any special state additional benefits, shall be included in the amount of benefits under this subsection.
     (2) The amount in the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund, as of August 31 preceding the computation, shall be divided by the final product determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section. The quotient obtained shall be expressed as a percentage and is the “Fund Adequacy Percentage Ratio” used to determine the applicable schedule of Table A of ORS 657.462 to be in effect for the succeeding calendar year.
     (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (2) of this section, if the product obtained by multiplying 3.3 times the average monthly employment in the calendar year preceding the calculation times the adjusted average weekly check amount for the calendar year preceding the computation exceeds the amount determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section, such product shall be used in lieu of the amount determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section in the Trust Fund Adequacy Ratio calculation in subsection (2) of this section.
     (4) Products obtained in subsections (1) and (3) of this section shall be rounded to the nearest dollar. [1969 c.157 §3 (657.458 and 657.459 enacted in lieu of 657.461); 1971 c.463 §16; 1975 c.354 §2; 1977 c.538 §4; 1983 c.508 §10; 2005 c.22 §462]
     Note: The amendments to
657.459 by section 7, chapter 183, Oregon Laws 2005, apply to unemployment
insurance tax reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007. See
section 10, chapter 183, Oregon Laws 2005. The text that applies to reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007, is set forth for the userÂ’s
convenience.
     657.459. (1) For the
purpose of computing employer tax rates, the Director of the Employment
Department, or the director’s authorized representative, shall compute a “Fund
Adequacy Percentage Ratio.” This computation shall be made in September of each
year and shall be the ratio of the amount in the Unemployment Compensation
Trust Fund, as of August 31 preceding the computation, to a calculated amount
of benefits that would be paid during the following calendar year if high
unemployment were to occur. The calculated amount of benefits shall be
determined as follows:
     (a) Average monthly employment in the calendar year preceding the calculation shall be divided by the average monthly employment in the high benefit cost period with the resulting quotient carried to the fourth decimal place.
     (b) The adjusted average weekly check amount for the calendar year preceding the calculation shall be divided by the average weekly check amount in the high benefit cost period with the resulting quotient carried to the fourth decimal place.
     (c) The amount of benefits paid during the high benefit cost period and attributable to employers subject to the tax shall be multiplied by the quotient determined in paragraph (a) of this subsection. The resulting product shall be multiplied by the quotient determined in paragraph (b) of this subsection. All benefits paid from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund attributable to employers subject to the tax, including but not limited to the Oregon share of extended benefits and any special state additional benefits, shall be included in the amount of benefits under this subsection.
     (2) The amount in the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund, as of August 31 preceding the computation, shall be divided by the final product determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section. The quotient obtained shall be expressed as a percentage and is the “Fund Adequacy Percentage Ratio” used to determine the applicable schedule of Table A of ORS 657.462 to be in effect for the succeeding calendar year.
     (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (2) of this section, if the product obtained by multiplying 3.0 times the average monthly employment in the calendar year preceding the calculation times the adjusted average weekly check amount for the calendar year preceding the computation exceeds the amount determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section, such product shall be used in lieu of the amount determined in subsection (1)(c) of this section in the Trust Fund Adequacy Ratio calculation in subsection (2) of this section.
     (4) Products obtained in subsections (1) and (3) of this section shall be rounded to the nearest dollar.

1959 c.606 §4]
     657.461 [1967 c.434 §5
(enacted in lieu of 657.464) repealed by 1969 c.157 §1 (657.458 and 657.459
enacted in lieu of 657.461)]
     657.462 Computation of
benefit ratio; grouping employers within cumulative taxable payroll percentage
limits; assignment of rates. (1) Notwithstanding the provisions of ORS
657.430, the Director of the Employment Department or the directorÂ’s authorized
representative shall, for each calendar year, compute a benefit ratio for each
employer who meets the requirements of this section. For an employer whose
record has been chargeable with benefits throughout the 12 preceding calendar
quarters ending on the computation date, the benefit ratio shall be a quotient
obtained by dividing the total benefit charges to the employerÂ’s record in such
12 calendar quarters by the total of the employerÂ’s taxable payrolls for the
same 12 calendar quarters. For an employer whose record has been chargeable
with benefits for at least four or more consecutive calendar quarters but less
than 12 consecutive calendar quarters and ending on the computation date, the
benefit ratio shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the total benefits
charged to the employerÂ’s record for such consecutive calendar quarters by the
total of the employerÂ’s taxable payrolls for the same period. Benefit ratios
shall be carried out to the sixth decimal place.
     (2) A listing shall be prepared of all employers meeting the requirements of this section and whose account is open according to Employment Department records as of August 31 following the computation date. This listing shall start with the employer having the lowest benefit ratio and progress through the employer having the highest benefit ratio. The listing shall show for each employer (a) the benefit ratio, (b) taxable payroll for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the computation date, and (c) a cumulative total consisting of the sum of such employer’s taxable payroll and the taxable payroll of all other preceding employers on the list.
     (3) The department shall group all employers in accordance with the cumulative taxable payroll percentage limits for the schedule in effect under Table A. All employers who fall within the same group will be assigned the tax rate for that group. However, if this grouping results in the taxable payroll of an employer falling in two groups, such employer and any other employer with the same benefit ratio shall be assigned the lower of the two applicable rates. Fractions of a cent will be dropped in computing taxable payroll limits used in Table A. The schedule in effect shall be in accordance with the Fund Adequacy Percentage Ratios set forth in Table A.

     Note: The amendments to
657.462 by section 8, chapter 183, Oregon Laws 2005, apply to unemployment
insurance tax reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007. See
section 10, chapter 183, Oregon Laws 2005. The text that applies to reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007, is set forth for the userÂ’s
convenience.
     657.462. (1) The
Director of the Employment Department or the directorÂ’s authorized
representative shall, for each calendar year, compute a benefit ratio for each
employer who meets the requirements of this section. For an employer whose
record has been chargeable with benefits throughout the 12 preceding calendar
quarters ending on the computation date, the benefit ratio shall be a quotient
obtained by dividing the total benefit charges to the employerÂ’s record in the
12 calendar quarters by the total of the employerÂ’s taxable payrolls for the
same 12 calendar quarters. For an employer whose record has been chargeable
with benefits for at least four or more consecutive calendar quarters but less
than 12 consecutive calendar quarters and ending on the computation date, the
benefit ratio shall be the quotient obtained by dividing the total benefits
charged to the employerÂ’s record for the consecutive calendar quarters by the
total of the employerÂ’s taxable payrolls for the same period. Benefit ratios
shall be carried out to the sixth decimal place.
     (2) A listing shall be prepared of all employers meeting the requirements of this section and whose account is open according to Employment Department records as of August 31 following the computation date. This listing shall start with the employer having the lowest benefit ratio and progress through the employer having the highest benefit ratio. The listing shall show for each employer:
     (a) The benefit ratio;
     (b) The taxable payroll for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the computation date; and
     (c) A cumulative total consisting of the sum of the employer’s taxable payroll and the taxable payroll of all other preceding employers on the list.
     (3) The department shall group all employers in accordance with the cumulative taxable payroll percentage limits for the schedule in effect under Table A. All employers who fall within the same group will be assigned the tax rate for that group. However, if the grouping results in the taxable payroll of an employer falling in two groups, the employer and any other employer with the same benefit ratio shall be assigned the lower of the two applicable rates. Fractions of a cent will be dropped in computing taxable payroll limits used in Table A. The schedule in effect shall be in accordance with the Fund Adequacy Percentage Ratios set forth in Table A.

     (2) Notwithstanding the tax rate imposed by ORS 657.462, each employer subject to this chapter, other than employers whose assigned tax rate is 5.4 percent, shall pay to the Employment Department for each calendar quarter an amount equal to nine one-hundredths of a percent of wages subject to tax under this chapter for that calendar quarter. All such moneys shall be paid and collected in the same manner and at the same time as unemployment compensation taxes under this chapter, unless the Director of the Employment Department prescribes otherwise. After deduction of the actual shared costs of the Employment Department in collecting the amounts under this subsection, all such moneys shall be paid into the Supplemental Employment Department Administration Fund. [2005 c.183 §2]

Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund in any computation of a fund adequacy
percentage ratio under this chapter as though said moneys had been reimbursed
to the fund as provided in ORS 657.505. Should advance payments made by reimbursing
employers exceed the amount of benefit payments, the excess amount shall be
excluded from the fund balance. [1965 c.359 §3; subsection (2) enacted as 1967 c.435 §12; 1971 c.463 §17; 1977 c.538 §5]

     657.471 Manner of charging
benefits to employer. (1) Subject to the provisions of subsections (2) to
(7) and (10) of this section, benefits paid to an eligible individual shall be
charged to each of the individualÂ’s employers during the base year in the same
proportion that the wages paid by each employer to the individual during the
base year bear to the wages paid by all employers to that individual during
that year.
     (2) With the exception of a political subdivision electing to pay taxes under ORS 657.509, an employer’s account shall not be charged with benefits paid an unemployed individual in excess of one-third of the base year wages paid that individual while in the employ of such employer.
     (3) Benefits paid to an individual for unemployment immediately after the expiration of a period of disqualification for having left work of an employer voluntarily without good cause shall not be charged to that employer.
     (4) Benefits paid to an individual for unemployment immediately after the expiration of a period of disqualification for having been discharged by an employer for misconduct shall not be charged to that employer.
     (5) Benefits paid without any disqualification to an individual shall not be charged to an employer of the individual for the immediate period of unemployment when:
     (a) The individual left work of the employer voluntarily for good cause not attributable to the employer; or
     (b) The employer discharged the individual because the individual was unable to satisfy a job prerequisite required by law or administrative rule.
     (6) If it is determined under the provisions of subsection (3), (4) or (5) of this section that benefits paid to an individual shall not be charged to an employer, such employer’s account shall not be charged for any benefits paid for any subsequent period or periods of unemployment during that individual’s affected benefit year or during any benefit year beginning within 52 weeks subsequent to the affected benefit year.
     (7) If a base-year employer, not otherwise eligible for relief of charges for benefits under this section, receives notification of an initial valid determination of a claim filed by an individual who:
     (a) Left work of such employer voluntarily and not attributable to the employer, such employer may request relief of charges within 30 days of the date the notice provided for in ORS 657.266 is mailed or delivered to the employer. The request must advise the Director of the Employment Department in writing the date of such leaving and that such leaving was voluntary and not attributable to the employer and the reason therefor. Upon receipt of such notice from the employer the director shall investigate the separation and if the resulting determination, which shall be made by the director, establishes that the leaving was voluntary and not attributable to the employer, that employer’s account shall not be charged with benefits during that individual’s benefit year. If the individual was reemployed by such employer prior to the filing of the initial valid claim, the employer shall not receive relief of the employer’s account under this subsection;
     (b) Was disqualified for the individual’s most recent separation from such employer by the director’s decision that found the individual has been discharged for misconduct connected with the work, that employer may request relief of charges within 30 days of the date the notice provided for in ORS 657.266 is mailed or delivered to the employer. Upon receipt of such request from the employer, the director shall examine department records and if the requirements of this subsection have been met shall grant the relief of charges to that employer for benefits paid to the individual during the benefit year; or
     (c) Was discharged for reasons that would be disqualifying under ORS 657.176 (2)(a), (b), (f), (g) or (h), the employer may request relief of charges within 30 days of the date the notice provided for in ORS 657.266 is mailed or delivered to the employer. The request must specify the date of the discharge and the reasons why the employer believes the discharge was for reasons that would be disqualifying under ORS 657.176 (2)(a), (b), (f), (g) or (h). Upon receipt of the request from the employer, the director shall review the information provided by the employer and determine whether the employer is entitled to relief of charges for benefits paid to the individual during the benefit year. If the director determines that the employer is entitled to such relief of charges, the director shall grant the relief.
     (8) The determination of the director under subsection (7)(a) and (c) of this section shall be final in all cases unless an application for hearing is filed within 20 days after delivery of such decision, or, if mailed, within 20 days after the same was mailed to the employer’s last-known address. When a request for hearing has been timely filed, an administrative law judge shall be assigned to conduct a hearing. After the administrative law judge has afforded all parties an opportunity for a fair hearing, the administrative law judge shall affirm or reverse the decision and promptly notify all parties entitled to notice of the decision and the reasons therefor. Decisions of the administrative law judge under this subsection become final and may be judicially reviewed as provided in ORS 657.684 to the extent applicable.
     (9) If the director finds that an employer or any employee, officer or agent of an employer, in submitting facts under subsection (7) or (8) of this section willfully makes a false statement or representation or willfully fails to report a material fact concerning the termination of an individual’s employment, the director shall make a determination thereon charging the employer’s reserve account not less than two nor more than 10 times the weekly benefit amount of the claimant or claimants, as the case may be. The director shall give notice to the employer of the determination under this subsection and such decision of the director shall become final unless an application for hearing is filed in accordance with subsection (8) of this section.
     (10) Benefits paid to an individual shall not be charged to a base-year employer if:
     (a) The employer furnished part-time work to the individual during the base year;
     (b) The individual has become eligible for benefits because of loss of employment with one or more other employers;
     (c) The employer has continued to furnish part-time work to the individual in substantially the same amount as during the individual’s base year; and
     (d) The employer requests relief of charges within 30 days of the date the notice provided for in ORS 657.266 is mailed or delivered to the employer.

     657.473 Statement of
benefits charged to employerÂ’s account. Employers subject to this chapter
may be furnished, upon written request, a statement of benefits charged to
their accounts at such times and in such form as may be determined by the
Director of the Employment Department. Nothing in this section shall in any way
be construed as to relieve an employerÂ’s account from benefit charges nor to
grant any appeal therefrom. [1967 c.435 §2]
     657.475 Where a number of
the same workers are normally employed by several employers; records;
contributions; charging benefits. (1) Where a number of workers are
normally employed in employment in the course of a year by several employers,
such employers, with the approval of the Director of the Employment Department,
may appoint an agent who shall maintain such records and prepare and file such
returns and reports as are required under this chapter in respect to such
workers, including returns and reports of wages paid and payable to such
workers, and may pay the employersÂ’ contributions levied under this chapter in
respect to wages paid and payable to such workers and shall perform such other
acts on behalf of such employers as the director may authorize, all in the same
manner as though such agent were the employer of such workers.
     (2) The director may, by regulation, provide for the manner of crediting to each such employer the employment experience of such group of employers who have appointed such agent with respect to such workers, for the purpose of any classification of employers made pursuant to this chapter for the determination of future rates of employers’ contributions.
     (3) Any of such employers who operate or do business in more than one place may, with the approval of the director, appoint a separate agent in each such place.
     (4) This section shall not be construed to make such agent the employer of such workers, or relieve any employer of obligations to comply with the terms of this chapter, except to the extent that such obligations are discharged by such agent.
     657.477 Related corporations
as common paymaster; treatment of compensation for services. For purposes
of this chapter, if two or more related corporations concurrently employ the
same individual and compensate such individual through a common paymaster which
is one of such corporations, each such corporation shall be considered to have
paid as remuneration to such individual only the amounts actually disbursed by
it to such individual, and shall not be considered to have paid as remuneration
to such individual amounts actually disbursed to such individual by another of
such corporations. [1979 c.255 §2]
     657.480 Effect of transfer
of trade or business; partial transfer; penalties; rules. (1) If an employer
transfers its trade or business or a portion of its trade or business to
another employer, the portion of unemployment experience attributable to the
transferred trade or business shall be transferred to the acquiring employer.
     (2)(a) If a person is not an employer when the person acquires a trade or business or a portion of a trade or business of an employer, the unemployment experience of the acquired trade or business shall be transferred to the person unless the Director of the Employment Department finds that the person acquired the trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate.
     (b) The person described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is not entitled to a tax rate of less than the tax rate assigned under ORS 657.435 unless and until the person, based upon the person’s unemployment experience and the unemployment experience of the trade or business transferred, has throughout the 12 consecutive months preceding the computation date had its account chargeable with benefits.
     (c) If the director finds that a person acquired a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate, the director shall deny a transfer of unemployment experience. In determining whether a person acquired a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate, the director shall use objective factors that may include:
     (A) The cost of acquiring the trade or business;
     (B) Whether the person continued the business activities of the transferred trade or business;
     (C) How long the person continued the business activities of the transferred trade or business; or
     (D) Whether a substantial number of new employees were hired for the performance of duties unrelated to the business activities of the trade or business that were conducted before the transfer.
     (3)(a) A person may not engage in activity to transfer or acquire, or to attempt to transfer or acquire, a trade or business or any portion of a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate. If a person knowingly engages in activity to transfer or acquire, or to attempt to transfer or acquire, a trade or business or any portion of a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate, the director shall assign the person the highest tax rate designated under this chapter for the rate year during which the activity occurred and for the next three rate years. However, if the person is already subject to the highest tax rate for a year, or if the amount of increase in the person’s tax rate would be less than two percentage points for the year, the director shall impose an additional penalty tax rate of two percentage points added to the calculated tax rate.
     (b) A person may not advise another person to engage in activity to transfer or acquire, or to attempt to transfer or acquire, a trade or business or any portion of a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate. In addition to any other penalty provided by law, the director may assess a civil penalty not to exceed $10,000 against a person that knowingly advises another person to engage in activity to transfer or acquire, or to attempt to transfer or acquire, a trade or business or any portion of a trade or business solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a lower tax rate. The director shall deposit all sums collected as civil penalties under this paragraph into the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund. An assessment under this paragraph is final unless within 20 days after the mailing of the notice of assessment the person files an application for a hearing under ORS 657.683.
     (c) As used in this subsection, “knowingly” means having actual knowledge of or acting with deliberate ignorance or reckless disregard for the law.
     (4) The director shall adopt necessary rules and procedures regarding the transfer of unemployment experience for purposes of establishing employer tax rates under this chapter to ensure that higher tax rates are not avoided through the transfer or acquisition of a trade or business or a portion of a trade or business. In adopting rules under this section, the director shall consider and strive to meet the minimum requirements in any guidance or regulations issued by the United States Department of Labor. [Amended by 1977 c.538 §6; 1999 c.513 §1; 2005 c.35 §2]

35, Oregon Laws 2005, provides:
     Sec. 4. For the period
of one year after the effective date of this 2005 Act [January 1, 2006], the
Director of the Employment Department shall waive all civil penalties and
interest under ORS 657.480 and may not initiate any criminal prosecution under
ORS 657.990 (3) if both of the following conditions are met:
     (1) The person voluntarily contacts the Employment Department to resolve any issue of past activity that could be construed as prohibited under ORS 657.480; and
     (2) The person pays all past due taxes owed as a result of the improper but previously undetected transfers of unemployment experience. [2005 c.35 §4]
     657.485 Notice of rate;
request for hearing; procedure for redetermination. (1) An employer, when
notified that the employer has been determined an employer subject to this
chapter, shall also be notified of the tax rate for the employer as determined
pursuant to this chapter. Such tax rate shall become conclusive and binding upon
the employer unless within 20 days after the mailing of the notice to the
last-known address of the employer as shown on the records of the Director of
the Employment Department, or in the absence of mailing, within 20 days after
the delivery of such notice, the employer files a request for hearing with the
director, setting forth the reason therefor.
     (2) An employer whose rate has been determined in accordance with the provisions of ORS 657.462, shall be notified of the tax rate for the employer not later than November 15 of the year preceding the calendar year for which the rate is applicable. An employer whose account is open according to the Employment Department records as of November 15 but whose tax rate was not determined under ORS 657.462 shall be notified of the tax rate for the following calendar year by November 15 or as soon as possible thereafter. Such tax rate shall become conclusive and binding upon the employer unless, within 20 days after the mailing of the notice to the last-known address of the employer as shown by the records of the director or, in the absence of mailing, within 20 days after the delivery of such notice, the employer files a written application for review and redetermination with the director, setting forth the reasons therefor.
     (3) If a valid application is filed within the time provided in subsection (2) of this section, an authorized representative of the director shall review the determination and notify the employer in writing thereof. If the review results in a change in either the employer’s tax rate or information included on the original tax rate notice, an amended notice shall be provided the employer.
     (4) The decision of the authorized representative reflecting the result of the review provided for in subsection (3) of this section shall become final and conclusive and binding upon the employer unless the employer, within 20 days after delivery of the notice, or if mailed, within 20 days after the same was mailed to the last-known address of the employer, files a request for hearing with the director. The request shall be in writing and shall state that the decision of the authorized representative is incorrect and the reasons therefor.
     (5) When a valid request for hearing has been filed, as provided in subsections (1) and (4) of this section, a hearing shall be conducted by an administrative law judge assigned from the Office of Administrative Hearings established under ORS 183.605 unless a hearing has previously been afforded the employer on the same grounds as set forth in the request. The administrative law judge shall give notice of the time and place of hearing to the director or authorized representative of the director and shall also give notice to the employer by mail directed to the last-known address of record with the director. Hearings under this subsection shall be conducted in accordance with this chapter. The filing of a request for hearing with respect to a disputed tax rate shall not affect the right of the director or authorized representative of the director to perfect any liens provided by this chapter.
     (6) After hearing, the administrative law judge shall enter findings of fact and decision either affirming or modifying the tax rate notice. The employer and the director shall be promptly notified of the decision of the administrative law judge. All testimony at any hearing held before an administrative law judge under this section shall be recorded but need not be transcribed unless a petition for judicial review from the decision of the administrative law judge is filed in the manner and within the time prescribed in ORS 657.487.
     (7) A decision of the administrative law judge is final on the date of notification or the mailing thereof to the director and to the employer at the last-known address of record with the director, and shall become conclusive and binding upon the employer and the director unless a petition for judicial review is filed in the manner and within the time prescribed in ORS 657.487.
     (8) No employer shall have any standing, in any proceeding involving tax rate or tax liability, to contest the chargeability to the account of the employer of any benefits paid in accordance with a determination, redetermination or decision pursuant to ORS 657.265, 657.266 to 657.269 and 657.270 to 657.290, except upon the ground that the services on the basis of which such benefits were found to be chargeable did not constitute services performed in employment for the employer or for a predecessor employer and only in the event that the employer or the predecessor was not a party to such determination, redetermination or decision or to any other proceeding under this chapter in which the character of such service was determined. At any hearing under this section the tax rate determined by the director or authorized representative of the director shall be prima facie correct and the burden shall be upon the protesting employer to prove it is incorrect. [Amended by 1959 c.583 §22; 1965 c.210 §5; 1971 c.734 §95; 1977 c.538 §7; 1993 c.778 §16; 1999 c.849 §§132,133; 2003 c.75 §51]

decisions under ORS 657.485. Judicial review of decisions or orders under

order is final. The Director of the Employment Department may file petition for
judicial review in accordance with this section from decisions of the
administrative law judge. [1971 c.734 §97; 1977 c.538 §8; 1999 c.849 §135; 2003

     657.490 Employer or employee

construed to grant any employer or any individual in the service of the
employer prior claims or rights to the amount paid by the employer into the
fund.

contributions. No person shall willfully make a false statement or
misrepresentation to lower contributions paid to the fund.
COLLECTION OF TAXES
     657.504 Applicability of
noncharging provisions. (1) The noncharging provisions of this chapter,
including but not limited to ORS 657.327, 657.360, 657.471 and 657.770, do not
apply to employers making reimbursement payments or payments in lieu of taxes
in accordance with ORS 657.505.
     (2) The noncharging provisions of this chapter apply to taxpaying Indian tribes, except that, notwithstanding ORS 657.327, one-half of extended benefits applicable to an Indian tribe paying taxes under ORS 657.505 shall be charged to the Indian tribe. [1973 c.118 §4; subsection (2) of 2005 Edition enacted as 2005 c.181 §2]
     657.505 Payment of and
liability for taxes; rules. (1) On and after January 1, 1936, taxes shall
be payable by each employer then subject to this chapter. Taxes shall become
payable by any other employer on and after the date on which the employer
becomes subject to this chapter.
     (2) An employer shall be liable for taxes on all wages paid for services performed on or after the first day of a calendar quarter.
     (3) Taxes of an employer shall not become payable until this chapter has been approved by the Secretary of Labor, and notice of such approval has been given to the Governor as provided in section 3304 of the Federal Unemployment Tax Act.
     (4) All taxes shall be paid to and collected by the Director of the Employment Department at such times and in such manner as the director may prescribe and upon collection, shall be deposited in the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund.
     (5) In lieu of taxes required of all other employers subject to this chapter, the state shall pay into the fund an amount equivalent to the amount of all regular benefits and all extended benefits paid out to claimants who during the applicable base year were paid wages by the state. Payments required under this section shall be payable from the General Fund of the state, except that if a claimant was paid wages by the state during the base year from a special or administrative fund provided for by law, the payment into the fund shall be made from such special or administrative fund with the approval of the Oregon Department of Administrative Services.
     (6) Any political subdivision subject to this chapter shall, in lieu of taxes required of other employers subject to this chapter, pay into the fund an amount equivalent to the amount of all regular benefits and all extended benefits paid out to claimants who during the applicable base year were paid wages by the political subdivision.
     (7)(a) Any nonprofit employing unit or any Indian tribe subject to or electing coverage under this chapter shall pay taxes under the provisions of ORS 657.475 and 657.480. However:
     (A) Such nonprofit employing unit may elect to make reimbursement payments into the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund in an amount equivalent to the amount of regular benefits and one-half of extended benefits paid out to claimants who during the applicable base period were paid wages by such nonprofit employing unit. Such reimbursement payments shall be deemed to be taxes for all purposes of this chapter.
     (B) Such Indian tribe may elect to make reimbursement payments into the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund in an amount equivalent to the amount of regular benefits and all extended benefits paid out to claimants who during the applicable base period were paid wages by the Indian tribe. Such reimbursement payments shall be deemed to be taxes for all purposes of this chapter.
     (b) A nonprofit employing unit or an Indian tribe may elect to make reimbursement payments by filing with the director a written notice to this effect within the 30-day period following the close of the calendar quarter in which the nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe became an employer, or may make a timely election within 30 days after the director finds the nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe in default with respect to payment of taxes if the director has not found the default to be due to an intent to postpone or avoid either payment of taxes due the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund or the election to make reimbursement payments pursuant to this paragraph. A nonprofit employing unit or an Indian tribe failing to submit a timely notice of election of reimbursement shall be liable for taxes on any wages paid for services performed for such nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe for two calendar years. Such nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe will remain liable for taxes for any calendar year thereafter unless a written notice of election of reimbursement is filed with the director by January 31 of such calendar year. The director shall for good cause extend the period within which a notice of election of reimbursement must be filed for an additional 30 days.
     (c) Elections of reimbursement shall continue until canceled but shall be for a period of not less than two calendar years. Any nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe may cancel such election, and pay taxes as any other employer, by filing with the director a written notice of its intention to cancel such election by January 31 of the year in which the cancellation is to be effective. The director may for good cause extend the period within which a notice of cancellation may be filed for an additional 30 days. Once a cancellation is effective the nonprofit employing unit or Indian tribe must pay taxes for two calendar years before it is again eligible for election of reimbursement. An employer whose election of reimbursement has been canceled shall thereafter be liable for taxes at the rate assigned an employer in accordance with ORS 657.435 until such employer is eligible for a rate based on the experience of the employer in accordance with the provisions of ORS 657.475 and 657.480.
     (d) Each nonprofit employing unit that elects to reimburse the fund shall, within 30 days after the effective date of its election, either execute and file with the director a surety bond or deposit with the director money, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by an insured institution as defined in ORS 706.008 or other security as approved by the director. The amount of the bond or deposit shall be two percent of the nonprofit employing unit’s total wages paid for employment covered by this chapter for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the effective date of the election. If the nonprofit employing unit did not pay wages in each of such four calendar quarters, the amount of the bond or deposit shall be as determined by the director. The amount of the bond or deposit shall not exceed the amount of taxes the nonprofit employing unit would have been assessed at the maximum tax rate for the same period had not the nonprofit employing unit elected to make reimbursement payments. However, no surety bond or deposit shall be required of an institution of higher education, unless in the discretion of the director the director determines that a surety bond or deposit shall be required of such an institution.
     (A) Any bond or letter of credit deposited under this paragraph shall be in force for a period of not less than two calendar years and shall be renewed with the approval of the director, at such times as the director may prescribe, but not less frequently than at two year intervals as long as the nonprofit employing unit continues to be liable for reimbursement payments. The director shall require adjustments to be made in a previously filed bond or letter of credit as the director deems appropriate. If the bond or letter of credit is to be increased, the bond or letter of credit shall be filed by the nonprofit employing unit within 30 days of the date notice of the required adjustment was mailed or otherwise delivered to it. Failure by any nonprofit employing unit covered by such bond or letter of credit to pay the full amount of reimbursements when due, together with any applicable interest and penalties, shall render the surety liable on said bond or the issuer liable on the letter of credit to the extent of the amount thereof including interest and penalties assessed pursuant to this chapter.
     (B) Any deposit of money or security in accordance with this paragraph shall be retained by the director. Money shall be deposited in the Employment Tax Guarantee Fund. When liability under the election is terminated the deposit shall be returned to the nonprofit employing unit, less any deductions as hereinafter provided. The director may transfer moneys from the Employment Tax Guarantee Fund or sell securities deposited as necessary to satisfy any due and unpaid reimbursements and any applicable interest and penalties. The director shall require the nonprofit employing unit within 30 days following transfer of a money deposit or sale of securities to deposit sufficient additional money or securities to restore the original deposit in full. The director may, at any time, review the adequacy of the deposit made by any nonprofit employing unit. If, as a result of such review, the director determines that an adjustment is necessary, the director shall require the nonprofit employing unit to make an additional deposit within 30 days of written notice of the determination or shall return to it such portion of the deposit as the director no longer considers necessary, whichever action is appropriate.
     (C) If any nonprofit employing unit fails to file a bond or make a deposit, or to file a bond in an increased amount or to increase or make whole the amount of a previously made deposit, as provided in this section, the director may terminate such nonprofit employing unit’s election to make reimbursement payments. The director may extend for good cause the applicable filing, deposit or adjustment period by not more than 30 days. A nonprofit employing unit having its election terminated under this section shall pay taxes for a period of two calendar years before it is again eligible for election to reimburse.
     (8)(a) At the end of each calendar quarter, or at the end of any other period as prescribed by the director, the director shall determine the amount of payments in lieu of taxes or reimbursement payments required, under subsections (5), (6) and (7) of this section, and shall bill each employer for such amount. If a claimant during a base year was employed by an employer liable for payments in lieu of taxes or reimbursement payments and other employers subject to the tax rate provisions of this chapter, the amount to be paid into the fund by employers liable for payments in lieu of taxes or reimbursement payments shall be an amount that is in the same proportion that the wages paid by each employer to the individual during the base year bear to the wages paid by all employers to that individual during that year.
     (b) In determining the amount of payments in lieu of taxes or reimbursement payments, benefits paid for any reason shall be included if such benefits or any portion thereof were paid as a result of wages earned in the employ of an employer required to make reimbursing payments or payments in lieu of taxes. Such benefits paid include but are not limited to payments made as a result of a determination or payments erroneously or incorrectly paid or paid as a result of a determination of eligibility that is subsequently reversed. Any benefit payments described in this paragraph that are subsequently recovered by the Employment Department will be credited on a pro rata basis to the account of the employer that reimbursed the fund for such benefits.
     (c) Payment of any bill rendered under paragraph (a) of this subsection shall be made not later than the last day of the month immediately following the month in which such bill was mailed to the last-known address of the employer or was otherwise delivered to it. The director may assess a nonprofit employing unit or an Indian tribe for past due taxes and such assessment shall be subject to the same interest, penalties, enforcement, appeal and any other provisions of this chapter that apply to taxes assessed pursuant to ORS 657.681.
     (d) If a nonprofit employing unit is delinquent in making reimbursement payments as required under this section, the director may terminate the nonprofit employing unit’s election and the nonprofit employing unit must pay taxes for two calendar years before it is again eligible for election of reimbursement. Any employer whose election is terminated under provisions of this subsection shall remain liable for reimbursement payments for any benefits paid based on wages received prior to the effective date of termination of the election.
     (e)(A) If an Indian tribe fails to make reimbursement payments as required under this section, including assessments of interest and penalties, within 90 days of receipt of the delinquency or bill, the director shall terminate the Indian tribe’s election and the Indian tribe must pay taxes for two calendar years before it is again eligible for election of reimbursement. Any employer whose election is terminated under the provisions of this subsection remains liable for reimbursement payments for any benefits paid based on wages received before the effective date of termination of the election.
     (B) Services performed for an Indian tribe may not be treated as employment for purposes of this chapter if, after all collection activities considered necessary by the director have been exhausted, the Indian tribe or any unit of the Indian tribe fails to make required payments, including contributions, reimbursement payments and assessments of interest and penalties.
     (C) Services performed for an Indian tribe that has lost coverage under subparagraph (B) of this paragraph may be treated as employment for purposes of this chapter if the Indian tribe makes all required payments, including contributions, reimbursement payments and assessments of interest and penalties.
     (D) For purposes of this section, an Indian tribe and any units of the Indian tribe that separately elect coverage are jointly and severally liable for all required payments, including contributions, reimbursement payments and assessments of interest and penalties.
     (E) The director shall notify the United States Internal Revenue Service and the United States Department of Labor if an Indian tribe fails to make payments required under this section, including assessments of interest and penalties, within 90 days of receipt of a final notice of assessment.
     (9) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (5), (6), (7) and (8) of this section, each employing unit that is required to make payments in lieu of taxes or has elected to make reimbursement payments may request permission to make advance or budget payments in accordance with rules adopted by the director.
     (10) Two or more employers that have become liable for payments in lieu of taxes or reimbursement payments, in accordance with the provisions of subsections (5), (6) and (7) of this section, may file a joint application to the director for the establishment of a group account for the purpose of sharing the cost of benefits paid that are attributable to service in the employ of such employers. Each application shall identify and authorize a group representative to act as the group’s agent for the purpose of this subsection. Upon the approval of the director of the application, the director shall establish a group account for such employers effective as of the beginning of the calendar quarter in which the director receives the application and shall notify the group’s agent of the effective date of the account. Such account shall remain in effect for not less than two years and thereafter until terminated at the discretion of the director or upon application by the group. Upon establishment of the account, each member of the group shall be liable for payments with respect to each calendar quarter in the amount that bears the same ratio to the total benefits paid in such quarter that are attributable to service performed in the employ of all members of the group. The director shall prescribe such rules as the director deems necessary with respect to application for establishment, maintenance and termination of group accounts. This subsection shall not be construed to make such agent the employer of such workers, or relieve any employer of the obligations of the employer to comply with the terms of this chapter, except to the extent that such obligations are discharged by such agent as provided thereunder. [Amended by 1957 c.682 §6; 1971 c.463 §18; 1973 c.118 §2; 1977 c.446 §7; 1989 c.329 §4; 1989 c.609 §3; 1991 c.67 §161; 1991 c.331 §96; 1997 c.631 §516; 2001 c.572 §12; 2003 c.401 §1; 2005 c.218 §15]
     657.506 Reports and taxes
for musicians under contract; applicability. (1) The person or organization
engaging the services of a musician or musicians shall be considered the
employer for the purposes of this chapter, except when the services are
performed pursuant to a written contract that expressly designates one or more
musicians who sign the contract as responsible for the filing of any reports
and the payment of any taxes based upon wages or earnings of a musician or
musicians performing services under the contract. A written contract that so
designates a musician or musicians as responsible shall be conclusive evidence
that the person or organization engaging the services is not the employer of a
musician or musicians performing services under the contract. The musician or
musicians who sign a written contract designating them as responsible shall, for
purposes of this chapter, be considered the employer of any musician performing
services under the contract who did not sign the contract.
     (2) The provisions of subsection (1) of this section do not apply to services performed for:
     (a) A nonprofit employing unit;
     (b) This state;
     (c) A political subdivision of this state; or
     (d) An Indian tribe. [1965 c.392 §2; 1977 c.538 §9; 1983 c.545 §1; 2001 c.572 §13; 2005 c.218 §17]
     657.507 Employer’s security
for payment of contributions. (1) If upon satisfactory evidence the
Director of the Employment Department finds it necessary for the protection of
the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund, the director may require any employer
subject to this chapter, except the state, including every state officer, board,
commission, department, institution, branch, agency or political subdivision,
to deposit and keep on deposit, with the director, a sum equal to the
contributions due the director upon the employerÂ’s payroll or estimated payroll
covering a period of three calendar quarters.
     (2) The director may, at the discretion of the director and in lieu of such deposit, accept a bond or an irrevocable letter of credit issued by an insured institution as defined in ORS 706.008 in a form acceptable to the director to secure payment of contributions to become due the fund. The deposit or posting of the bond or letter of credit shall not relieve the employer from making contributions to the fund based on the payroll of the employer as provided by this chapter. The director may, at the discretion of the director, at any time apply such deposit or bond or letter of credit or part thereof to the delinquencies or indebtedness of the employer arising under any provision of this chapter.
     (3) Any deposit, letter of credit or bond shall be deemed for all purposes to become the sole property of the Director of the Employment Department and shall be deposited in the Employment Tax Guarantee Fund and held for the sole benefit of the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund and the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund, subject only to subsection (4) of this section. The deposit, letter of credit or bond shall be prior to all other liens, claims or encumbrances and shall be exempt from any process, attachment, garnishment or execution whatsoever and shall be for the sole benefit of the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund and the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund except as provided in subsection (4) of this section.
     (4) If an employer ceases to be an employer subject to this chapter, the Director of the Employment Department shall, upon receipt of all payments due the fund based on the employer’s payroll, refund to the employer all deposits remaining to the employer’s credit and shall cancel any bond or letter of credit given under this section. Such sums as are on deposit in the Employment Tax Guarantee Fund or bonds held for the benefit of the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund shall first be applied to any indebtedness or deficiencies due from the employer to the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund and the Employment Department Special Administrative Fund under any provisions of this chapter before any return is made to the employer. The employer shall have no interest in such deposit, letter of credit or bond prior to full compliance with this section and all provisions of this chapter. [1959 c.598 §7; 1967 c.435 §6; 1991 c.331 §97; 1997 c.631 §517; 1999 c.59 §197]
     657.508 Failure to comply
with ORS 657.507. (1) If an employer fails to comply with ORS 657.507, the
circuit court of the county in which the employer resides or in which the
employer engages in business shall, upon the commencement of a suit by the
Director of the Employment Department for that purpose, enjoin the employer
from further employing individuals in this state or continuing in business
therein until the employer has complied with ORS 657.507.
     (2) Upon filing of a suit for such purpose by the director, the court shall set a day for hearing and shall cause notice thereof to be served upon the employer. The hearing shall be not less than five days from the service of the notice. [1959 c.598 §8; 1967 c.435 §7; 1983 c.508 §11]
     657.509 Taxes from political
subdivisions and peopleÂ’s utility districts; election; effect of canceling
election; applicability of noncharging provisions. (1) Instead of the
amount to be paid into the fund under provisions of ORS 657.505 (6), a
political subdivision may elect to pay taxes in accordance with the provisions
of ORS 657.430 and 657.480. The election shall be on forms prescribed by the
Director of the Employment Department and must be filed within the 30-day
period following the close of the calendar quarter in which the political
subdivision became an employer. An employer failing to submit a timely notice
of election under this section shall be liable under provisions of ORS 657.505
(6) for a minimum of two calendar years. Thereafter such employer may file a
written election to pay taxes. Such election must be filed by January 31 of the
calendar year for which the election is to be effective. The director may for
good cause extend the period within which an election must be filed for an
additional 30 days.
     (2) An election shall continue until canceled but shall be for a period of not less than two calendar years. An employer may cancel such election by filing with the director a written notice of its intention to cancel by January 31 of the year in which the cancellation is to be effective. The director may for good cause extend the period within which a notice of cancellation may be filed for an additional 30 days. Once a cancellation is effective, the political subdivision must pay amounts in accordance with ORS 657.505 (6) for two calendar years before it is again eligible to elect payment under this section.
     (3) All noncharging provisions of this chapter shall apply to political subdivisions electing to pay taxes under this section, except that with respect to ORS 657.327, one-half of extended benefits applicable to a political subdivision paying taxes under this section shall be charged to the political subdivision.
     (4) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section, any political subdivision may elect to pay taxes or cancel a tax election effective January 1, 1978, if such election or notice of cancellation is filed by January 31, 1978. The director may for good cause extend the period for filing an election for an additional 30 days. [1973 c.715 §5; 1975 c.156 §3; 1977 c.446 §8; 1989 c.609 §4]
     657.510 Refunds. If not
later than three years after the date on which any contributions, interest,
fines or penalties were paid pursuant to this 1965 Act, an employer who has
paid such contributions, interest, fines or penalties makes application for an
adjustment thereof in connection with subsequent contributions, interest, fine
or penalty payments, or for a refund thereof because such adjustment cannot be
made, and the Director of the Employment Department determines that such
contributions, interest, fines or penalties, or any portion thereof were
collected erroneously, the director shall allow such employer to make an
adjustment of the amount erroneously paid, without interest, in connection with
subsequent contributions, interest, fine or penalty payments by the employer
or, if such adjustment cannot be made, the director shall refund said amount,
without interest, from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund or from the
Employment Department Special Administrative Fund, as applicable; provided that
the director shall not allow any adjustment in connection with subsequent
contributions for amounts of interest, fines or penalty payments collected or
received subsequent to July 1, 1965, nor shall the director refund any such
payment from the fund except that the director may refund any such payment from
the interest, fine and penalty collected after such date which are temporarily
in the fund for clearance pending transfer to the Employment Department Special
Administrative Fund. For like cause and within the same period, adjustment or
refund from the Unemployment Compensation Trust Fund and the Employment
Department Special Administrative Fund, as appropriate, may be so made on the
directorÂ’s own initiative. Refunds of contributions pursuant to ORS 657.065 (1)
shall be refunded by the director from the fund without application. When
refunds of contributions are made pursuant to ORS 657.065 (1), refunds of
fines, penalties and interest, if any, shall be made from the Employment
Department Special Administrative Fund without application. [Amended by 1965

brought in the name of the director and judgment rendered thereon shall bear

     (a) Assess a collection charge of $5 if the sum of the tax, penalty and interest then due exceeds $10.
     (b) Issue a warrant under official seal directed to the sheriff of any county of the state commanding the sheriff to levy upon and sell the real and personal property of the employer found within that county, for the payment of the amount of the tax with the added penalties, interest, collection charge and the sheriff’s cost of executing the warrant, and to return such warrant to the director and pay to the director the money collected by virtue thereof by a time to be therein specified, not less than 60 days from the date of the warrant.

Thereupon the amount of the warrant so recorded shall become a lien upon the title to and interest in property of the employer against whom it is issued in the same manner as a judgment that creates a judgment lien under ORS chapter 18. The sheriff thereupon shall proceed upon the same in all respects, with like effect and in the same manner prescribed by law in respect to executions issued against property upon the judgment of a court of record, and shall be entitled to the same fees for services in executing the warrant, to be added to and collected as a part of the warrant liability.
     (3) In the discretion of the director, a warrant of like terms, force and effect may be issued and directed to any agent authorized by the director to collect taxes and in the execution thereof the agent shall have all the powers conferred by law upon sheriffs, but is entitled to no fee or compensation in excess of actual expenses paid in the performance of such duty.
     (4) If a warrant is returned not satisfied in full, the director shall have the same remedies to enforce the claim for taxes, interest and penalties against the employer as if the director had recovered judgment against the employer for the amount of the taxes, interest and penalties.
     (5) Interest upon the taxes due as set forth in the warrant shall be paid and collected at the rate prescribed in ORS 657.515 (2). [1971 c.128 §2; 1983 c.696 §25; 2003 c.576 §217]

Department, for the first such failure, shall send to the employer at the
employerÂ’s last-known address a written notice warning the employer that a

     (1) Potential rights to benefits accumulated under the unemployment insurance laws of the several states or under such a law of the federal government, or both, may constitute the basis for the payment of benefits through a single appropriate agency under terms which the director finds will be fair and reasonable as to all affected interests and will not result in any substantial loss to the fund.
     (2) Individuals performing services in this and other states for a single employing unit under circumstances not specifically provided for in ORS 657.035 (2) or under similar provisions in the unemployment insurance laws of such other states, shall be deemed to be engaged in employment performed entirely within this state or within one of such other states and whereby potential rights to benefits accumulated under the unemployment insurance laws of one or more states or under such a law of the federal government, or both, may constitute the basis for the payment of benefits.
     (3) The collection and payment of contributions by employers with respect to employment not localized within this state is adjusted.
     657.765 Reciprocal
agreements concerning payroll taxes for out-of-state work. Whenever the
unemployment insurance laws of other states provide for inclusion of
out-of-state payment of wages in computing wages paid in like manner as
provided in ORS 657.095 (2), the Director of the Employment Department may
enter into agreements with those empowered to administer the unemployment
insurance laws of such other states for the purpose of:
     (1) Waiving the further collection of payroll taxes in all the states when the aggregate amount of said wages is in excess of “payroll” as defined in ORS 657.095 (1); and
     (2) Securing uniformity for payroll reporting on such out-of-state work. [Amended by 1955 c.655 §24; 1973 c.300 §13; 1973 c.810 §3]
     657.770 Reciprocal agreements
concerning wages used as basis for benefits. (1) The Director of the
Employment Department may enter into reciprocal arrangements with appropriate
and duly authorized agencies of other states or of the federal government, or
both, whereby wages, upon the basis of which an individual may become entitled
to benefits under an employment security law of another state or of the federal
government, shall be deemed to be wages for insured work for the purpose of
determining benefits under this chapter. Wages for insured work, on the basis
of which an individual may become entitled to benefits under this chapter,
shall be deemed to be wages on the basis of which unemployment insurance is
payable under such law of another state or of the federal government.
     (2) No such arrangement shall be entered into unless it contains provision for reimbursement to the fund for such of the benefits paid under this chapter on the basis of such wages and provision for reimbursement from the fund for such benefits paid under such other law on the basis of wages for insured work, as the director finds will be fair and reasonable to all affected interests.
     (3) Reimbursements paid from the fund pursuant to this section are deemed to be benefits for the purposes of this chapter. However, no charge shall be made to an employer’s account under ORS 657.471 in excess of the maximum benefits payable under ORS 657.150 or when no benefits would have been payable to an individual but for this section, because of the lack of wages for insured work necessary to qualify for benefits.
     (4) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (1) and (2) of this section, the director shall participate in any arrangements for the payment of compensation on the basis of combining an individual’s wages and employment covered under this chapter with wages and employment covered under the unemployment insurance laws of other states that are approved by the United States Secretary of Labor in consultation with the state unemployment insurance agencies as reasonably calculated to ensure the prompt and full payment of compensation in such situations and that include provisions for:
     (a) Applying the base period of a single state law to a claim involving the combining of an individual’s wages and employment covered under two or more state unemployment insurance laws; and
     (b) Avoiding the duplicate use of wages and employment by reason of such combining. [Amended by 1957 c.699 §11; 1971 c.463 §19; 2005 c.22 §463]
     657.775 Cooperation with
other states on reciprocal basis for collection of contributions. (1) The
courts of the State of Oregon shall recognize and enforce the liability for
unemployment insurance contributions imposed by other states which extend a
like comity to this state, and officials of such other states may initiate
civil proceedings in the courts of this state to enforce the collection of such
contributions. The certificate of the Secretary of State of such other states
that such officials have the authority to collect the contributions is
conclusive evidence of such authority.
     (2) The Attorney General is empowered to initiate and prosecute civil proceedings in the courts of other states by and in the name of the Director of the Employment Department to enforce the liability for unemployment insurance contributions imposed by the State of Oregon, and may also initiate and prosecute civil proceedings in this state as agent for and on behalf of any other state to enforce liability for unemployment insurance contributions due such state if the state extends a like comity to the State of Oregon. The compensation for the services of the Attorney General rendered on behalf of other states under this section shall be paid from moneys appropriated to the Employment Department for administrative expenditures. The compensation for similar officers of other states for services rendered on behalf of this state under this section shall be paid by such other state. However, all other expenses of civil proceedings under this section shall be paid by the state, officer or agency thereof at whose request such proceedings were initiated.
     (3) The Attorney General, with the approval of the director, may employ a special assistant under ORS 180.140 (5) to initiate and prosecute civil proceedings in other states to enforce liability for unemployment contributions imposed by the State of Oregon and nothing in this section shall be deemed to prevent the officials of other states from employing any member of the Oregon State Bar to initiate and prosecute civil proceedings in this state to enforce liability for unemployment insurance imposed by such other states.
     (4) As used in this section, “contributions” includes interest and penalties imposed pursuant to an unemployment insurance statute. [1963 c.453 §2; 1983 c.740 §247]
     657.780 Agreements with
governmental agencies to withhold benefits for child support obligations;
rules. (1) As used in this section, “appropriate agency” means an agency
authorized to enforce child support obligations pursuant to a plan approved
under part D of title IV of the Social Security Act.
     (2) Notwithstanding ORS 657.855, the Director of the Employment Department may enter into agreements with the appropriate agency of this state whereby child support obligations which are being enforced pursuant to a plan approved under section 454 of the Social Security Act and owed by an individual who is eligible for unemployment compensation may be met, in whole or in part, by withholding from the unemployment compensation due the individual the amount specified by the individual to the appropriate agency to be withheld or the amount determined pursuant to an agreement with the individual submitted to the appropriate agency or any amount otherwise required to be withheld pursuant to ORS 25.378 and 25.414 and forwarding of the amount so withheld to the appropriate agency.
     (3) Any amount deducted and withheld under subsection (2) of this section shall for all purposes be treated as if it were paid to the individual as unemployment compensation.
     (4) This section shall apply only if appropriate arrangements have been made for reimbursement, by the appropriate agency or agencies involved, for the administrative costs incurred by the Employment Department under this section.
     (5) The director shall prescribe such rules as are deemed necessary with respect to implementation and administration of procedures to comply with the provisions of this section. [1982 s.s.1 c.30 §9; 1991 c.115 §1; 1993 c.798 §49]

     (B) If the recipient is not referred to the JOBS Plus Program in accordance with subparagraph (A) of this paragraph and has not obtained unsubsidized employment within eight weeks of the week after the recipient applied for unemployment insurance benefits, the Employment Department shall reassess the recipient’s reemployability and refer the recipient to the JOBS Plus Program if appropriate.
     (d) Notwithstanding ORS 411.892 (4)(d)(A) and (B), unemployment insurance recipients may participate in the JOBS Plus Program for no more than 13 weeks, unless the department determines that an additional period of participation in the program of up to 13 weeks is appropriate.
     (e) Employers participating in the JOBS Plus Program by providing subsidized employment to JOBS Plus Program recipients through the Employment Department shall be reimbursed in accordance with ORS 411.892 (12).
     (7) To the extent that additional moneys may be obtained for the program from sources other than state tax revenues, the additional moneys shall be appropriated to the Oregon JOBS Plus Unemployment Wage Fund. [1995 c.561 §12; 1995 c.816 §27; 2001 c.657 §1; 2001 c.781 §1a]
