Oregon Independent Contractor Agreement FAQ
Common questions about independent contractor agreements under Oregon law.
Must Oregon construction contractors be registered?
Yes. Oregon requires construction contractors to register with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) before entering into any construction contract. Unregistered contractors cannot enforce payment claims and may face civil penalties. Verify a contractor's registration at oregonccb.org before signing.
What is Oregon's ABC test for independent contractors?
Under ORS §657.040, a worker is an employee for unemployment insurance purposes unless: (A) the worker is free from the company's direction and control, (B) the service is performed outside the company's usual business, and (C) the worker is independently established in the same type of work. All three prongs must be met.
