March is Women’s History Month, a time to reflect on the accomplishments of women throughout history and acknowledge those who are shaping the future. At ServiceMaster of Salem, Eugene, Corvallis, and Lincoln City, we are proud to have a strong team of women who are not only excelling in the restoration industry but also leading the way for future generations. These remarkable women are helping shape the future of our company and our community with their passion, leadership, and dedication.
The restoration industry, like many others, has historically been dominated by men. Women entering this field have faced many challenges, from overcoming stereotypes to earning the respect and trust of clients and colleagues. Yet, these women have continued to break barriers and prove that their leadership, skills, and compassion are essential to the success of this industry. Their resilience in pursuing careers in a male-dominated field has not only paved the way for themselves but has also created opportunities for future generations of women to succeed in the restoration business.

At the corporate level, ServiceMaster has been shaped by the leadership of many remarkable women. Sue K. Pritchard, with her contributions to ServiceMaster's Disaster Restoration Services, helped enhance disaster recovery efforts, making the company a key player in the field. Additionally, Ruth R. A. Yuen, a former executive at ServiceMaster, has significantly influenced the company's strategies and growth, ensuring the business continues to thrive and innovate in the restoration industry.
While these women are just a few examples, we have many others at ServiceMaster who are making history every day. Their leadership, resilience, and commitment are paving the way for future generations of women in the restoration industry. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, we honor and thank these strong, inspiring leaders for all they do to help others in their times of need.
Let’s continue to support and uplift women who are making history, today and every day!
