# Oregon Unemployment Checklist: Weekly Work Search Rules, Excel Log and Documents to Gather

Oregon's weekly work search rules from Oregon Employment Department's own pages, in one checklist: at least 5 work-search activities a week; at least 2 must be direct contacts with employers; report: when you file your weekly claim in Frances Online or by phone, you're asked about your direct employer contacts; records: keep records of your work search efforts for each week you claim; the claimant handbook (UIPUB350, rev. 03/26) doesn't set a retention period.

Who it is for

People claiming unemployment in Oregon who need to keep a weekly work search record for Oregon Employment Department, and family members helping them stay organized.

Not the right fit if

You claim unemployment in a state other than Oregon, or you need help with a denied claim or an appeal: this organizes the weekly work search record and doesn't advise on eligibility.

Why it is different

- Built only from our Oregon work search data file, checked November 2026 against 4 official pages: Oregon Employment Department: Weekly claims; Oregon Employment Department: Weekly Claim Request for Regular Unemployment Insurance (Form 127, 0125); Or. Admin. R. 471-030-0036, Eligibility factors (Cornell LII, last amended March 2022).
- Every item in the checklist is confirmed on an official page and linked to it.
- The Excel summary flags any week with fewer than 5 logged activities, recalculating with zero formula errors.

What is inside

- **Oregon weekly work search log (Excel).** A log with the columns Oregon Employment Department asks for (Employer or organization, Job title or type of work, Address, website or email, Date, How you made contact, Result), a weekly summary that counts your activities against Oregon's 5 per week and a documents checklist.
- **Start here: Oregon filing and work search steps.** The 10 facts Oregon Employment Department's pages confirm, each with its source and check date. The weekly requirement, in the agency's words: At least 5 work-search activities a week; at least 2 must be direct contacts with employers. How to report: When you file your weekly claim in Frances Online or by phone, you're asked about your direct employer contacts. Activities Oregon counts: direct employer contacts: asking about work or applying in the way the employer wants (at least 2); applying for jobs that fit your skills; interviewing; reemployment services at a state workforce center; updating your résumé; reviewing lists of available jobs. Records: Keep records of your work search efforts for each week you claim; the claimant handbook (UIPUB350, rev. 03/26) doesn't set a retention period. Job bank: WorkSource Oregon. Who may not have to search, per the agency: temporarily unemployed: in contact with your regular employer with a reasonable expectation of returning to work, generally within four weeks; members in good standing of a union that doesn't allow members to seek non-union work; federal employees temporarily out of work in a government shutdown who expect to resume work; as otherwise directed by the Employment Department.
- **Documents to gather.** A checklist of the papers a claim usually asks for (IDs, employer names and dates, pay records, separation papers), with space for anything Oregon's application adds.
- **Printable weekly work search log.** A paper version of the log with Oregon's columns, one week per page, for claimants who prefer to write it down.

Questions

## Common questions

**What's in the download?**

An Excel weekly work search log for Oregon and three Word documents with matching PDFs: a start-here checklist of Oregon Employment Department's work search rules, a documents-to-gather checklist and a printable weekly log. You get a download link by email after payment.

**How many work search activities does Oregon require each week?**

At least 5 work-search activities a week; at least 2 must be direct contacts with employers. That is in the data file we checked November 2026 against Oregon Employment Department's own pages; your notices from the agency come first.

**How do I report my work search in Oregon?**

When you file your weekly claim in Frances Online or by phone, you're asked about your direct employer contacts. The agency's page: https://frances.oregon.gov/Claimant/_/.

**What if the agency's pages don't say something?**

Anything Oregon Employment Department's pages didn't state when we checked is left out of the kit's facts and put on a short "Look up before you file" list, with the agency's page to check, never guessed. In this kit that is: official list of activities, official log form, how long to keep records, who may not have to search, how the week is counted.

**Is this legal or benefits advice?**

No. It's general information and an organizer. Oregon Employment Department decides whether your work search meets its rules. MCC Solutions isn't affiliated with any state agency.
