In keeping with Oregon Child Support Program's (CSP) vision, "Children can depend on their parents to provide the support they need," Attorney General Hardy Myers announced that a technical seminar is scheduled for Oregon employers to learn about their legal obligations relating to child support. The seminar is scheduled for 8:30 a.m., August 23, 2006, at the Red Lion Inn, 3301 Market Street in Salem.

Employers are key partners in the success of the Child Support Program in Oregon by helping children and families receive the support to which they are entitled. The seminar is designed to provide employers with information about laws enacted by the Oregon Legislature between 1989 and 2003.  The CSP will provide technical assistance on reporting new hires, order/notice to withhold income, income withholding laws, national medical support program and available electronic services.

The employer seminar is open to all employers and labor organizations doing business in the state and is free of cost.  Information regarding pre-registration, new hire reporting, employer assistance and medical support can be found at www.dcs.state.or.us/employersor by calling the Department of Justice Division Child Support at (503) 378-2868.
