2 reasons either you are low on oil or oil pressure switch is bad check your oil level first.
doe's your car have an actual oil pressure gauge? if so oil pressure should be in safe zone 35 psi or better if not than you have serious issues with oil pump not likely though. but if its up then it could be a bad oil pressure sending unit (just a sensor to tell computer what your oil pressure is) replace it and issue will go away.in the mean time if gauge says oil pressure is up than car is safe to drive as long as its not leaking like you said. if no gauge have autozone or advance check it they have a scanner and will do it for free.

The amount is just above the minimum mark. I had an oil hcnag ejust over 2 months ago. I have not noticed and oil spots in my garage.
Check there is sufficient oil in the sump(check it at dipstick) or maybe the wire to your oil pressre gauge has dirt on it which can cause this problem.
