State of Oregon Mandatory Furlough Days: Office will be closed
Furloughs - Message from the Governor on closure dates

The current recession has reduced state revenues, and has forced the Legislature to make deep cuts in agency budgets. Coping with these cuts requires closing most state offices and facilities on the days listed in the link below. State workers affected by the closures will take unpaid furloughs on those days. We apologize for any inconvenience these closures might cause, and we look forward to restoration of a full work schedule for all state agencies when the economy improves.

The mandatory days that will be closed on Furlough Days follow. In addition to these dates when the state offices will be closed, the Agency Director must take an additional four "floating" unpaid furlough day:

All on Fridays: October 16, 2009 and November 27, 2009
In 2010: March 19, 2010; April 16, 2010; June 18, 2010; August 20, 2010; September 17, 2010; November 26, 2010
