ORLA Regional Meetings Scheduled

ORLA staff will be on the road this October hosting Regional Meetings where members can engage in discussions on issues impacting their business. Hear what's coming in to play in 2020 and what you need to know to be prepared for new laws and regulations.

These meetings, held twice a year in fall and spring, provide members an informal, round-table forum to gain insight and intelligence, exchange ideas and ask questions. ​Topics include: paid family leave, Corporate Activities Tax, plastic bags/straws, restaurant compensation solutions and tip pooling, Oregon restaurant wage survey, Oregon Tourism Leadership Academy, and local / regional issues.
