Oregon Administrative Rule 437-001-0275(2)(a)

Ġ	 You have the right to know about hazardous substances used in
your workplace
You have the right to file a complaint with the Oregon Bureau of Labor
and Industries (BOLI) within one year, or with federal OSHA within
30 days, of discrimination by your employer for making safety and
health complaints or for exercising your rights under the Oregon Safe
Employment Act.
The Oregon Safe Employment Act of 1973 provides job safety and health
protection for workers through the promotion of safe and healthful
working conditions throughout the state. The Oregon Occupational
Safety and Health Division (Oregon OSHA) of the Department of
Consumer and Business Services has the primary responsibility for
administering the act. This includes the right to refuse work that would
expose you to serious physical harm or imminent danger.
Oregon OSHA adopts occupational safety and health standards, and
its trained safety and health compliance officers conduct workplace
inspections to ensure compliance with the Oregon Safe Employment Act.
Anyone who wants to register a complaint about the administration of
the Oregon Safe Employment Act can do so by contacting:
OSHA San Francisco Regional Office
San Francisco Federal Building
90 7th Street, Suite 2650
San Francisco, CA 94103
