Oregon Laws

Oregon law requires all employers to support breastfeeding employees by providing break time and a private space (other than a bathroom) to pump at work. The law specifies that employers must offer a “reasonable rest period” whenever the employee needs to pump, replacing a previously fixed time requirement. 

Employers with fewer than 10 employees may request an exemption if they can demonstrate an “undue hardship.” For more details, see OR 653.077 and the amendment: HB 2593.
