What changed
BOLI issued an immediate consumer protection warning on April 6, 2026, alerting Spanish-speaking workers in Oregon about ongoing fraudulent schemes targeting this community. The agency released bilingual press releases (English and Spanish) to maximize reach among affected populations. No regulatory requirements, penalties, or compliance obligations are associated with this advisory.
No immediate action is required from employers or businesses.
