    Oregon employers to save millions By JOSEPH B. FRAZIER
    PORTLAND — Oregon employers will pay $22.7 million less a year in total workers’ compensation costs beginning in January under rates announced Tuesday by Gov. Ted Kulongoski.
    The total payment per $100 in payroll goes from $1.95 to $1.92. The total rate has dropped almost every year since reforms began in 1990. That year it was $4.32, one of the highest rates in the nation.
