If you feel that your employer has violated wage and hour laws, you may file a complaint with the Portland Office of the Bureau of Labor and Industries´ Wage and Hour Division.
 
If you are owed wages, do not file a complaint. Instead, you need to complete a Wage Claim Form.
 
Complaints may involve any of the following:

• Child labor issues, such as working too many hours or too late, working during school hours.
• Break and meal periods, such as no breaks or meal periods given, no relief during a meal period, or no compensation during break periods.
• Deductions from paychecks including incorrect deductions, deductions for breakage or till shortages, or deductions not properly listed on the pay stub.
• Final paycheck problems such as the final paycheck is not received in a timely manner or not received at all.
• Other examples such as no pay stubs included with paychecks or irregular pay periods.

 
Instructions
Fill out the Complaint Form completely and submit it to:

Bureau of Labor and Industries
Wage and Hour Division

If your complaint involves a claim for unpaid wages, you must also complete and mail a Wage Claim Form to any of the bureau´s Wage and Hour Division offices nearest you. Please do not fax.
