This is a Register of Wage Determinations under the Service Contract Act issued by the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment Standards Administration for Oregon counties (Baker, Grant, Harney, Malheur, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, and Wallowa). The wage determination, numbered 2015-5589 Revision 30, became effective December 3, 2025, and establishes prevailing wage rates for service contract employees performing work in the specified geographic area. The document lists over 200 occupation classifications across multiple service categories including administrative support, automotive service, food preparation, furniture maintenance, general services, health occupations, information technology, instructional occupations, laundry and dry cleaning, machine tool operation, materials handling, mechanics and maintenance, personal needs, plant operations, protective services, recreation, stevedoring, technical occupations, and transportation. Wage rates range from $14.51 per hour for waiter/waitress positions to $69.92 per hour for nuclear medicine technologists.

All listed occupations receive fringe benefits including health and welfare at $5.55 per hour (or $222.00 weekly/$962.00 monthly), vacation accrual of two to five weeks depending on tenure, and eleven paid holidays annually. Computer professionals earning at least $684 weekly are exempt from wage determination requirements if they meet specific compensation and duty criteria. Air traffic controllers and weather observers receive night differential pay (additional 10 percent between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.) and Sunday premiums (25 percent of base rate). An eight percent hazardous pay differential applies to ordnance and explosives work, while a four percent differential covers lower-hazard ordnance-related duties. Contractors must provide uniforms at no cost to employees and reimburse uniform cleaning costs at specified rates. The determination references Executive Orders 13706 and 13658 regarding paid sick leave requirements for applicable SCA-covered contracts awarded after specific dates.
