About this file

This document is a Workers' Compensation Exemption Certificate for a Multnomah County Services Contract, marked as a sample document not intended for submission. The form provides a mechanism for contractors to claim exemption from workers' compensation insurance coverage requirements under Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 656. The certificate offers five distinct exemption categories: Sole Proprietor, For-Profit Corporation, Nonprofit Corporation, Partnership, and Limited Liability Company, each with specific qualifying conditions such as having no employees, performing all work through owners/partners/members, and not engaging in certain types of construction-related work.

The document includes detailed notes clarifying exemption criteria, such as defining "substantial ownership" for corporate shareholders (10% ownership or equivalent) and cautioning that exemptions for partnerships and limited liability companies performing construction work are complex. Contractors must carefully review and accurately complete the appropriate section, signing and dating the form to validate their workers' compensation insurance exemption status. The form serves as a critical compliance document for contractors engaged with Multnomah County, ensuring transparency and legal adherence to state workforce regulations.
