Overtime

When	Per hour
Daily overtime	$74.98

Statutory minimum: (base x 1.5) + fringe, after 8 h/day Mon-Fri (10 h on an established 4x10 schedule), over 40 h/week, and all hours on Saturday, Sunday and the six ORS 279C.540 holidays. Add any zone, shift or hazard pay to the base before multiplying. A contractor's CBA overtime terms govern instead (ORS 279C.540(4)); public-university contracts owe overtime only after 40 h/week.

Time and a half on the base rate, with the fringe at straight time, for hours over 8 a day Monday to Friday (over 10 on a 4×10 schedule), over 40 a week, and all hours on Saturday, Sunday and six holidays (ORS 279C.540; OAR 839-025-0050). The figures here are (base × 1.5) + fringe, computed; zone and shift pay go on top.

Davis-Bacon teamster rate in Klamath County

Federally funded or assisted construction here uses the U.S. Department of Labor's wage determinations. On projects that are also federal, Oregon requires the higher of the state and the federal rate, and the specifications must contain both (ORS 279C.830, 279C.838).

We don't put a federal figure next to BOLI's here, because the federal determinations split this trade into groups that don't line up with BOLI's. The federal rows for this trade are below; match the classification to the work.
