[Boli_rules] Request for public comment on Petition for Rulemaking

[Seiler, Erin]

On March 22, 2021 the Labor Commissioner received a petition requesting amendment to the Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR). Pursuant to  ORS 183.390<https://www.oregonlaws.org/ors/183.390> and OAR 137-001-0070<https://secure.sos.state.or.us/oard/viewSingleRule.action?ruleVrsnRsn=9849> petitioners request an amendment to OAR Chapter 839, Division 20 - Meal and Rest Periods.

In accordance with ORS 183.390 and OAR 137-001-0070, upon receipt of a petition requesting that a rule be amended, BOLI is required to seek public comment on the proposed amendment to the rule, specifically public comment on whether options exist for achieving the rule's substantive goals in a way that reduces the negative economic impact on businesses.

Upon completion of the public comment period, BOLI will make a determination whether deny the petition or initiate rulemaking proceedings. The agency must complete this process no later 90 days after the date of submission of a petition.

BOLI will accept public comments on the amendment proposed by the petitioner until 5:00 pm on May 21st. Attached is proposed amendment.
