Injured at Work

Management-Labor Advisory Committee

MLAC is the "gatekeeper" to changes in workers' compensation law. With very few exceptions, if they don't sign on to legislation, it fails. The governor appoints MLAC members. These ten representatives (five labor, five business) advise the WCD director, the Oregon Legislature, and governor on all matters relating to workers' compensation. In addition, the Director of the Department of Consumer & Business Services is an ex-officio member.

To receive email updates when agendas are issued, please visit Email updates.

Meetings are held regularly and usually weekly when the legislature is in session. Meetings are listed at https://www.oregon.gov/dcbs/mlac/Pages/mlac.aspx. They are sometimes held at:

Labor and Industries Building
350 Winter St. NE, Room 260
Salem, Oregon
