Paid Leave Oregon Setup in Desktop

I know a way to ensure your rate is accurate, LM62.

Let's add the rates to the employees' profiles. Beforehand, I've listed these details that'll help you learn how Paid Leave Oregon program works:

• The total contribution rate is 1% and is paid on the first $132,900 in wages.
• Your employees pay 60%. Your business may choose to pay the employee portion as a benefit to your employees.
• If you have more than 25 employees, your business pays 40%. If you have less than 25 employees, you don’t pay an employer portion.  The agency has a guide and chart to help you determine your employee count.
• If you use QuickBooks Online Payroll Core, Premium, or Elite with automatic tax payments and filings turned on, or you use QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Assisted, we pay and report the premiums for you.
• If you use QuickBooks Online Payroll Core, Premium, or Elite with automatic tax payments and filings turned off, or you use QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Basic, Standard, or Enhanced, you’ll need to pay and report the premiums yourself.

Here's how to add the rate:

1. Go to Employees, and select Employee Center.
2. Double-click your employee.
3. Select Payroll Info.
