ORS 659A.198 Use of paid leave

Except as provided in subsections (2) and (3) of this section, and unless otherwise provided by the terms of an agreement between the eligible employee and the covered employer, a collective bargaining agreement or an employer policy, a covered employer is not required to grant leave with pay under ORS 659A.192 to an eligible employee to attend a criminal proceeding.

An eligible employee who takes leave to attend a criminal proceeding may use any paid accrued vacation leave during the period of leave or may use any other paid leave that is offered by the covered employer in lieu of vacation leave during the period of leave.

Subject to the terms of any agreement between the eligible employee and the covered employer or the terms of a collective bargaining agreement or an employer policy, the covered employer may determine the order in which accrued leave is to be used when more than one type of accrued leave is available to the employee.
