Oregon general laborer rates
Also called laborer, construction laborer, labourer. Rates by SubTrack.
Oregon rates sit on Portland civil, ports, and I-5 industrial. Prevailing wage in the metro is not the same as an Eastern Oregon T&M job. These USD charge-out ranges are public benchmarks, not employee pay. General laborer charge-out is the most-used T&M labor line on civil tickets. It is not a pipelayer or a skilled laborer. OT rules belong on your sheet so the field does not invent them. In Oregon, a general laborer typically bills $65 /hr (range $55 to $80, as of 2026-08). For a check against nearby markets, Washington sits at $70 /hr, and California sits at $75 /hr. These are public benchmarks. Your billable number lives on a SubTrack rate sheet.
