Other Volunteers--Assumed wage must be at least $6.50/hour or $800/month minimum.
Unpaid boards, commissions, councils, and public officials: If these officials receive any "remuneration," t ey
would be considered subject workers and reported using regular payroll categories. If they receive no remunera Ion
and you wish to provide workers' compensation benefits, you will need to either establish an assumed monthly w ge
or keep monthly time records and estimate/report assumed payroll using Oregon minimum wage. CIS has
designated Class Code 8742V for this type of exposure. Please call if you have questions or need advice.
Inmates/Community Service Workers: If your entity uses workers from the correctional system (i.e., commu ity
service workers, inmates on work release, peer review crews, etc.), it is important to address and clarify in wri ing
PRIOR to work inception which entity will be responsible for covering this exposure. CIS recommends you ob am
a Certificate of Coverage for Workers' Compensation from the sentencing court or make arrangements to pro\ ide
coverage through your own entity. If the second option is chosen, keep monthly time records and report tl1 ese
workers using Oregon minimum wage. CIS has designated Class Code 7720V for this type of exposure.
Miscellaneous: Assumed payroll for all other volunteer elections should be computed at Oregon minimum w 1ge
using actual hours worked and reported in the appropriate NCCI classification code with a "V" added to the e nd.
Unanticipated volunteer projects or exposure can be added on throughout the coverage year (1) by endorsem nt,
(2) with advance notice to CIS, and (3) allowing two weeks for processing. Coverage of this type canno be
backdated.
