In Oregon, employers who are covered by the state workers' compensation law withhold employee contributions from the wages of covered employees for the workers' benefit fund at the rate of 1.1 for each hour or part of an hour that the worker is employed. Every covered employer is also assessed 1.1 per hour for each worker employed for each hour or part of an hour. The employer-employee contributions for workers' compensation are collected monthly, quarterly, or annually by the employer's insurance carrier, according to a schedule agreed upon by the employer and the carrier. The insurance carrier remits the contributions to the state's Workers' Compensation Department.

During the month of July, the number of full-time employee-hours worked by the company's employees was 8,110; the number of part-time employee-hours was 2,330.
