The tax is one-tenth of one percent (0.001), or $1 per $1,000 of wages. The STI tax is calculated on wages earned by an employee who is an Oregon resident regardless of where the work is performed, or an employee who is a nonresident who performs services in Oregon.
By law, as an employer you must withhold a portion of your employees' wages based on their allowances and send the funds to the Department of Revenue (DOR).
