Relay Resources

How have you shifted to better serve your employees? We are committed to being radically inclusive of people with disabilities, and people who are neurodivergent. That means we're constantly learning and adjusting our practices to better serve our employees. We are dedicated to sharing our ideas with you so that together we can continue to move toward a more inclusive future for disabled people in the workforce.

Congratulations to Relay Resources President and CEO Dr. Jennifer Camota Luebke for being appointed to the Board of Trustees of United Cerebral Palsy. “Each of these individuals has had an impressive history of engagement in the disability community and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the board.” - United Cerebral Palsy President and CEO Armando A.

“Do not wait for your teams to ask for an accommodation. Assume you will have neurodivergence on our teams (because you probably do, even if you don’t know it) and actively, intentionally create environments that will support them.” Nate Shalev, Diversity and Inclusion Specialist [ ID: Relay Resources employees positioned at tables assemble materials in our Supply Chain Solutions facility. ] #Accessibility #WorkplaceAccommodation #pdxJobs #Portland #AccessibleWorkplace #DisabilityInclusion #Inclusion #HireMyStrengths #TheBarriersWeFace #InclusionRevolution #DisabilityEmployment

New assistive and accessible technologies are making the world more inclusive for those with visual, hearing and physical disabilities.

We bet you've heard that big changes are coming to PDX Airport.

Since 1996, Relay Resources has provided janitorial services at our very busy airport. Our talented employees are thrilled to be a part of the team to keep our award-winning airport clean!

Why do only 23% of Americans with disabilities have jobs? Our mission is to change that, one job at a time. [ ID: The first image has the words "It's Disability Pride Month... Meet America's most underutilized workforce: People with Disabilities" placed over the image of a smiling woman. The second image has white text on a teal background with a human figure graphic. The words read "A majority of Americans can't identify one of America's largest minorities. There are over 33 million adults with disabilities. Only 23% of them have jobs." On both of the graphics, there are logos for Relay Resources, Source America, the Ability One Program and True Inclusion Equals All. ] #DisabilityEmployment #DisabilityPride #DisabilityPrideMonth #PDX #Portland #DisabledPeopleBelongEverywhere #RelayResources Graphics provided by SourceAmerica

We’re proud to announce that our Janitorial Team (including workers from floor maintenance and our workforce training program) recently passed the ISSA-The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association audit with honors! Relay scored 100% on the audit, which representatives from ISSA said is very difficult to accomplish, especially at a global facility like the Portland International Airport.  Subsequently the team received the Global Biorisk Advisory Council’s Cleaning Industry Management Standard Green Building Advanced with Honors certification, which demonstrates best practices in cleaning. This honor exemplifies the high professional level of services we’ve delivered to our customers.  We congratulate and celebrate our teams for these accomplishments!
