The workforce picture

What Oregon employers need.

Corridors and hubs

  • Port of Portland
  • I-5 through the Willamette Valley
  • I-84 through the Columbia River Gorge
  • I-205
  • Columbia Corridor industrial area

Portland is the state's freight hub. Warehouses cluster near the Port of Portland, in the Columbia Corridor and east toward Troutdale and Gresham. Those operations need forklift operators, loaders and pickers.

The Willamette Valley is rich, diverse farmland. Salem, Albany and Eugene support food processing, packaging and cold storage. Plants there need dependable production crews.

Oregon also has an established recycling culture, including its long-running bottle deposit program. Sorting facilities and waste haulers need steady labor. Construction around Portland, Bend and Medford adds demand for laborers and tradespeople.
