In OR, while an employer must pay employees at least once every 35 days on regular paydays as designated by the employer, there is no law regarding at what point in the day a paycheck must be handed out. The fact that some workers are paid before others does not give rise to a legal claim unless doing so violates the terms of an empolyment contract or union agreement. A business can set the conditions of the workplace much as it sees fit. Not all employees need be treated thae same or even fairly absent some form of legally actionable discrimination.
