Oregon does not have a state law mandating private-sector employers to reimburse employee expenses.
State employers must cover expenses related to approved travel for business purposes, including transportation, lodging, meals, and more, either via reimbursement, cash advance, or other means (such as providing a state-owned vehicle for transportation).
