WORKER PROTECTION

The Preferred Worker Program

A program of the Oregon

Department of Consumer and Business Services’

Workers’ Compensation Division

Who is eligible?

Both employers and workers may

be eligible for preferred worker

benefits.

Employers — Must have and keep

Oregon workers’ compensation

insurance and follow Oregon

workers’ compensation laws.

Workers — Must have an on-the-

job injury that keeps them from

going back to their regular work due

to permanent work restrictions.

What kind of help can I get?

Premium exemption

Premium exemption saves an

employer the costs of workers’

compensation insurance premiums

and premium assessments on a

preferred worker for three years.

During this premium exemption

period, the employer does not

report, and the insurer cannot use

the preferred worker’s wages to

calculate insurance premiums or

premium assessments. To use this

benefit, the employer must notify

the Workers’ Compensation Division

within 90 days of hiring the preferred

worker.

Claim cost reimbursement

This protects the employer from

the costs of a new workers’

compensation claim if the preferred

worker has a new injury during the

three-year premium exemption

period.

Wage subsidy

The Workers’ Compensation

Division repays the employer 50

percent of the preferred worker’s

wages for 183 days. The wage

subsidy may be used as many times

as needed, up to a maximum total

reimbursement of $40,000.

Employment purchases

The Workers’ Compensation

Division can purchase goods or

services that are required to help a

worker find, accept, or keep a job in

Oregon:

Tuition, books, and fees for

classes to update existing skills or

meet job requirements

($1,000 per use, up to $2,000).

Temporary lodging, meals, and

mileage for overnight travel if

required to attend classes

(up to $1,000).

Tools and equipment

required for the job

($2,500 per use, up to $5,000).

Clothing required for the job and

not provided by the employer

($500 per use, up to $1,000).

Transportation-related

purchases that enable the

worker to commute, excluding

vehicles, up to $1,000 within the

first 90 days of employment.

Union initiation fees or dues

owed, plus one month’s current

dues (up to $1,000).

Moving expenses for a job in

Oregon if the new job is 50 miles

or more from the worker’s home.

Occupational certification,

licenses, and related testing

costs ($500 per use, up to

$1,000).

Worksite creation costs

required to purchase equipment

and tools when an employer

creates a new job ($5,000 per

use, up to $10,000).

Placement assistance to help a

preferred worker find a job.

Miscellaneous purchases not

covered by any other category

(up to $2,500).

Worksite modification

The Preferred Worker Program can

purchase items needed to overcome

injury-caused permanent limitations

($35,000 per use, up to $50,000). By

using these modifications, workers

can get the job done safely and

within their limitations. For example,

a house painter who can no longer

climb a ladder or scaffold could use

a scissor lift to get the job done.

Who is a preferred worker?

A person is designated a preferred

worker because they have some

measure of permanent limitation due

to an on-the-job injury.

The Oregon Department of

Consumer and Business Services’

Workers’ Compensation Division

is committed to helping injured

workers get back into the workforce

by providing incentives to

businesses such as:

Premium exemption

Claim cost reimbursement

Wage subsidy

Worksite modification

Employment purchases needed

for a worker to find, accept, or

keep employment

What is the Preferred

Worker Program (PWP)?

The Preferred Worker Program

helps qualified Oregon preferred

workers get back in the workforce.

The program is funded by the cents-

per-hour payments into the Workers’

Benefit Fund paid by workers and

employers. Preferred workers can

offer Oregon employers benefits

that, by hiring them, save the

business money and decrease its

operating costs.
