Employees have an opportunity to ask questions about benefits and their payroll at these orientations. If you would like to learn more about your benefits and how to accurately post your timesheet, please discuss with your supervisor about attending one of the following meetings. We will be looking at future dates for other locations, employees will be notified as soon as those are scheduled. Once the payroll is shipped via US Postal Service, the state is no longer in control of the delivery. With direct deposit the paycheck is in the bank on payday, regardless of whether the checkstub is delivered on time or delayed by the postal service.
Students increase their skills and knowledge while fulfilling career-related learning requirements.
State employees help train an available pool of new workers who understand our workplace needs and expectations. Governor Kitzhaber strongly encourages state employee participation in structured, worksite learning experiences in support of the education of Oregon's students. We are experiencing a dramatic increase in inquiries for student placements in state agencies as a result of the high school requirement to participate in career related learning experiences. Take Our Kids to Work Day is an excellent time to teach students about the programs and services we provide to all Oregonians. This activity would be added to the periodic report the Oregon Military Department does regarding the School to Work program.
