In Gresham, Oregon follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act for weekly overtime (1.5x after 40 hours in a workweek) and also requires daily overtime in certain industries such as manufacturing, where 1.5x is owed after 10 hours in a workday. Overtime is based on your regular rate of pay, which includes most non-discretionary bonuses, not just your base hourly wage.
The applicable minimum wage in Gresham is $15.45/hour. Gresham sits inside the Portland metro urban growth boundary, where Oregon sets a higher regional minimum wage of $15.45/hour, above the standard statewide rate, indexed each July. Overtime must be at least 1.5x your regular rate, and if your rate is higher than the minimum, overtime is figured on your actual rate.
Sometimes. Oregon requires daily overtime (1.5x after 10 hours in a workday) for employees in manufacturing establishments and some other industries, in addition to weekly overtime after 40 hours. Most other Gresham workers follow the 40-hour weekly rule, which this calculator estimates.
Salaried executive, administrative, and professional employees who earn above the FLSA salary threshold ($684/week) and meet the duties tests are generally exempt, as are most independent contractors. Oregon generally follows the federal exemption rules, with some state-specific protections. Check with an employment attorney for your situation.
Overtime is taxed as ordinary wages. New for 2026, the federal One Big Beautiful Bill Act lets eligible non-exempt workers deduct up to $12,500 ($25,000 for joint filers) of overtime pay from federal taxable income. Oregon taxes overtime as ordinary income at its graduated rates up to 9.9% and has not adopted a matching state deduction. Consult a tax professional to confirm eligibility.
