Oregon Workers Compensation Laws: Do I Need a Oregon Workers Compensation Lawyer
Oregon Workers' Compensation State law denies workers' compensation benefits when an employer shows, by a preponderance of the evidence, that a major contributing cause of an employee's injury was the consumption of alcoholic beverages or the unlawful use of controlled substances, unless the employer "permitted, encouraged or had actual knowledge of such consumption." Ore. Rev. Stat. § 656.005(7) (1997).
