Section 659A.009 - Declaration of policy against discrimination in employment because of age

It is declared to be the public policy of Oregon that the available workforce should be utilized to the fullest extent possible. To this end, the abilities of an individual, and not any arbitrary standards that discriminate against an individual solely because of age, should be the measure of the individual's fitness and qualification for employment.
