| Twenty
years ago, a group of workers and employers came together to fix a crumbling
workers' compensation system. Known as the "Mahonia Hall reforms,"
the changes developed by the group were adopted by the Legislature in a
special session on May 7, 1990. Since then, Oregon's workers' compensation
system has become one of the most successful in the nation, with low costs
for employers, improved workplace safety, and innovative programs to help
injured workers get back on the job. This webpage provides information about
the upcoming 20th anniversary celebration, interviews about the success
of the reforms, and resources for workers and employers. |
