WorkSource Oregon Employment Assistance and Priority of Service

Oregon Employment Department
No-cost employment services with priority of service

You get employment training and placement help through Local Veteran Employment Representatives and Disabled Veteran Outreach Program specialists. Priority of service means you get access to a service or resource earlier than people who are not eligible, and when a service or resource is limited you get it before or instead of them. If you have significant barriers to employment, staff refer you to an outreach specialist for an assessment for enhanced services.

Check eligibility

How to apply

Contact a WorkSource Oregon center and tell them you are a veteran or an eligible spouse so they record your priority of service.

What you'll need

Your DD214 to establish veteran status, or documentation of your spouse’s service, disability or casualty status if you are claiming as a spouse.
