Les Schwab Retiree Rehire Program
HOW IT WORKS
2024 Retiree Rehire Program
- Retirees can be rehired through a current staffing agency partner, Mid Oregon Personnel.
- Retirees will be employed by Mid Oregon Personnel as leased workers (they will be W-2 employees of Mid Oregon Personnel, not 1099 contractors). This allows Retirees to stay on the Retiree Health Plan.
- As leased workers, Retirees are covered under Les Schwab’s workers’ compensation.
- Mid Oregon Personnel charges a markup of 18% (carried by store).
- Retiree rehires are exempt from pre-employment background and drug screening.

Timekeeping & Pay Information
Pay days
Pay days are on 10th and 25th of each month. Direct deposit or pay card options available.
Sick time
Each eligible employee accrues 1 hour of sick leave for every 30 hours that the employee works, up to a maximum accrual of 40 hours in each year of employment. Sick leave begins accruing from the employee’s date of hire. They are eligible to use sick time after 90 calendar days of employment with Mid Oregon Personnel.

Holiday pay is paid at straight time at the time of the holiday. When the normal work schedule is other than 8 hours per day, holiday pay will be adjusted accordingly. To be eligible, employees must work full time hours for at least 3 months (including any time as a temporary prior to becoming a leased worker).
Timecards
The retiree leased worker will record their time on a paper timesheet and submit their timesheet to their supervisor on the 16th of the month by 9:00am (for hours worked from the 1st - 15th) and on the 1st day of the month by 9:00am (for hours worked from the 16th - last day of the month). Please review and email the timesheet by 11:00am on the 16th and 1st with your approval. The contact and submission information for Mid Oregon Personnel is on the timesheet template.
