Understanding Your Oregon Paycheck
Calculating your take-home pay in the state of Oregon requires more than just looking at federal tax brackets. Oregon is one of the few states that does not have a sales tax, but it compensates with one of the higher state income tax rates in the Pacific Northwest. Furthermore, unique employee-paid assessments like the Workers' Benefit Fund and the Paid Leave Oregon program directly impact your bottom line.

Mandatory Oregon Employee Deductions
1. Paid Leave Oregon
Effective 2023, employees in Oregon contribute to the Paid Leave program. This program provides employees with paid time off for family, medical, or safety reasons. The employee contribution rate is currently set at 0.6% of your gross wages (up to the Social Security wage cap).
2. Workers' Benefit Fund (WBF) Assessment
Oregon also has a unique Workers' Benefit Fund assessment. Unlike most taxes based on earnings, this is based on the hours you work. As of 2024, the assessment is $0.02 per hour worked, with the employee paying $0.01 per hour and the employer paying the other half.
3. FICA Taxes
Regardless of which state you live in, Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) taxes are mandatory. These consist of:
Social Security: 6.2% of your gross pay (up to the annual limit).
Medicare: 1.45% of your gross pay.
