Be You & Belong

We aspire to create an exceptional, inclusive workplace where everyone can be themselves, no matter their background or life experiences. Every person’s path is unique, but a common thread that connects us all is finding a sense of belonging.

For many, belonging is about living authentically and finding strength in community. Colby, based at our ESCO facility in Portland, Oregon, considers Pride Month a personal reminder “that we belong – that we have a place in the world.”

He adds that none of this progress was accomplished without the people who came before. “We have many more opportunities today than we did yesterday,” he shared.

As a Steering Committee Member for the Weir Pride Alliance (WPA), the Technical Service Representative is forging new pathways and opportunities for LGBTQ+ colleagues who seek belonging at Weir. The work the WPA has done since it started in 2021 has enabled Colby’s peers to accomplish these objectives in a productive and meaningful way – facilitating opportunities to network, educate and advocate for Weir’s LGBTQ+ community and their allies.
