grammar - Is putting a comma before two non-coordinating conjunctions still correct?

Can I put a comma before 'or' in the following sentence:




Airline work can earn double the salary of factory work, or at least equal





Background:



The rule says you need a comma before a coordinating conjunction: and, but or etc



The rule does not say anything about putting a comma between two non-coordinating conjunctions



'At least equal' is not an independent clause so it's not a coordinating conjunction



Therefore, if I put a comma before 'or' is that incorrect?
