All OYA employees are required to submit to a two-step TB test to establish a TB free "base line." If offered employment and you accept, OYA will offer you the TB testing, and if you refuse, OYA will require the necessary documentation from your personal health care provider as a condition of employment. All positions in OYA will require the incumbent to serve as a "mandatory reporter" of child abuse. Visa Sponsorship: We do not offer Visa sponsorship. If you are hired, you will be required to fill out the US Department of Homeland Security’s I-9 form confirming you are able to work in the US. OYA uses E-Verify to confirm that applicants are authorized to work in the United States. Have Questions?: For questions about the job announcement, email OYAJobs@oya.oregon.gov .
