Giving Back: RMG helped Prepare Hundreds of Lunch Bags
Recently, RMG participated in an event to help curve the hunger and homeless population in the city of Miami. Held at the newly established Mr. Kream ice cream shop in Wynwood during the #HashtagLunchbag event, RMG and a list of other companies with big hearts pooled their resources together and organized this event to feed the hungry and the homeless. As a group, we put together lunch bags that included a healthy dose of food for those who we often see on the streets during our commutes to work and home. Miami has great weather year round but for those who don’t have a home to go to or a job to support themselves, when living on the streets our great weather could often turn into a scorching sun that wrecks havoc on the body. Combined with dehydration hunger can lead various diseases and ultimately lead to one’s death, especially during the summers. That is why RMG was so willing and ecstatic to be part of this amazing event. “I have been blessed in founding a successful company that finds jobs for those looking for work in the hospitality industry,” president and CEO of RMG Staffing Ricardo Michelangeli says. “And it provides me with great joy to help feed the less fortunate.” #HashtagLunchbag is not just a Miami event that feeds the hungry and homeless. It is a national movement that consists of businesses, organizations, and individuals whose main goal is to do anything and everything it takes not to have people die of hunger. #HashtagLunchbag began on Christmas 2012 in a Los Angeles apartment by a group of friends who were having trouble finding a fun & meaningful way to give back. They went to their local grocery store and bought enough food to prepare 100 homemade lunches. They hit the streets of Santa Monica and Venice Beach and gave nutritional and delicious meals to anyone that hadn’t had a healthy meal in a long time. After they were done, the group went on social media and shared their experiences in helping the less fortunate eat a healthy meal. They used #HashtagLunchbag with every post. Their post went viral. The group received an astronomical amount of support and got swarmed with likes, comments, calls, texts and e-mails by those wanting to get involved or create similar events in their local communities. The group’s initial meeting started in a small apartment and then moved into a Los Angeles restaurant. They went from making lunch bags with a few hundred to thousands. With their use of social media that intrigued and inspired their friends and their followers, the #HashtagLunchbag events became a movement that was able to be held various cities across the United States and help feed hundreds of thousands. They added love notes of encouragement to each meal to further acknowledge those they were feeding, reminding the less fortunate that they weren’t forgotten. To date, the organization has grown to 100 plus cities and hosted #HashtagLunchbag events all around the globe. Living Through Giving Foundation is the registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that now runs the organization. RMG was really happy to be part of this event and we encourage individual and other businesses to join or organize their own #HashtagLunchbag. Be a part of a great cause and help the less fortunate and empower humanity.
How to Improve Your Job Search Results
RMG Staffing has been in the hospitality and staffing industry for more than a decade. With a wonderful and dedicated team, we have and will continue to provide exceptional service to our clients. In addition to making our clients feel like rock stars, RMG Staffing is blessed to be in a position where we can dramatically improve the careers of those who want to excel in South Florida’s hospitality industry. We also try to give excellent career advice to every prospective employee that walks through our doors. One of the many pieces of advice we offer is ways to improve one’s job search. Here are four key ways to jump-starting your career in the right path. 1. Focus on the High-Return Job Efforts Job boards have less than a 5% effectiveness rate while networking has more than a 50% effectiveness rate. Start by selecting 10 to 30 companies where you would love to work. Do a company search on LinkedIn and identify the decision makers and their staff. Follow the company and people on LinkedIn and Facebook, join their groups and conversations, and comment on their blogs. 2. Review Your Online Presence Studies show that 88% of employers Google prospective employees’ names so make sure you have a completed LinkedIn profile. Check your various social media presences and be careful of the content you post. Take down or change any comments that reflect poorly on you. 3. Optimize Your LinkedIn Profile Would you show up if a recruiter was searching through LinkedIn to find people for the position you are seeking? Try it and if you are not on the first or second page, go back to your profile and add keywords to increase your ranking. A simple trick is to look at the profiles of the people who rank well and follow their examples. 4. Create Measurable Goals Stay disciplined. Set goals. For example, “I will make 15 networking calls and have two weekly meetings.” Make sure you are focusing on high-impact efforts like networking versus job board submissions. Keep a record of your efforts so if an employer calls, you can quickly determine when and how they were contacted.
Staffing Industry Trends
Summer 2018 is almost here. At this moment we’re either preparing for summer vacation or getting ready to jump into the seasonal employment job market. For those of you who are gearing up for the summer job opportunities in the hospitality industry, you’ll be happy to hear that our economy is showing positive gains. Overall the staffing industry is doing exceptionally well and a large number of staffing firms are anticipating increases in revenue this year compared to 2017. According to the 2018 North American Staffing & Recruiting Trends Report, the driving forces behind this growth are based on strategic planning devised by industry professionals who know how and what to prioritize. Staffing firms top three priorities: Increasing profitability (45%) Driving top-line revenue growth (43%) Improving candidate sourcing (42%) Increasing profitability is always a top priority for any business and staffing firms are using technology and social media to bring in revenue. Firms are using the latest apps to build their network and obtain new clients. These apps schedule virtual meetings and help keep track of sales. In reference to social media, websites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram allows staffing firms to market their brand directly to consumers and clientele. In addition, social network websites like LinkedIn gives staffing firms a great platform for recruiting new talent to their team. The other trends that are driving the staffing industry in 2018 include: Improving the management of client relationships Expanding into new markets Automating and accelerating recruiting and placement processes Engaging candidates and improving the candidate experience Increasing employment brand development and marketing We at RMG Staffing understand what it takes to stay ahead of the pack. We constantly update ourselves on the latest trends in the industry. In addition to the previously mentioned priorities that are trending in the staffing industry for 2018, we also use various other initiatives to push our company and most importantly our clients to greater heights. These initiatives include improving our diversity, new interviewing tools in our hiring process and data collection. Miami is a city of various cultures from all over the world. As a step to improve our diversity, we seek out employees of various backgrounds and skills. Our clients also come from a diverse background. Our interviewing tools are quite innovative. In addition to hosting open houses, we also implement tech-driven skill assessments in our interviewing process that guarantees our clients’ needs are met. Our in-house IT department is exceptionally gifted in troubleshooting. If there is ever a tech issue, they are quick to analyze the situation and resolve the matter in sufficient timing. We’re almost halfway through 2018 and based on the current state of the staffing industry, we are looking to experience an exceptional ending for the year.
The US vs. the European Economy
According to the latest Labor Department figures the US economy added 313,000 jobs in February. This is the biggest gain since July of 2016 and is more than the number economists had expected. The unemployment rate stayed at 4.1%, which is the lowest in 17 years and wages grew 2.6% in comparison to 2017. We added half a million jobs during the first two months of 2018. The economic reports also show the month of February being the 89th consecutive month of job gains, which is the longest streak since the Labor Department started tracking these numbers in the 1940s. The industries that made the biggest job gains include: Banks and financial institutions with 28,000 jobs. Manufacturing businesses hired 31,000 workers. Construction gained 61,000 employees, Mining industry held up to 9,000 new hires. This is great news for South Florida because Miami is ranked among the top 100 cities to find jobs in 2018. Out of a total of 182 US cities, the WalletHub study revealed that our city came in 51st. “College graduates, especially, will see a strong boost in their job prospects,” WalletHub stated. “But your luck of finding work depends largely on location.” WalletHub findings are supported by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity that reported Florida had an unemployment rate of 3.6 percent and Miami-Dade County with an unemployment rate of 4.6 percent. This current trend in economic growth is not exclusive to the US. Europe’s economy is expanding at an even faster rate. The European Union consists of 28 European nations and generates an estimated 30% of the world’s GDP and in 2017, the eurozone experienced a 2.5% economic growth. The eurozone consists of Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Spain. The region has seen unemployment fall to the lowest level since 2009 and factory productions are up at 3.2% from last year. “Anything the U.S. economy can do the eurozone economy can do, slightly better it seems,” Jacob Deppe, head of trading at online currency broker Infinox Capital told CNN. “With both the U.S. and eurozone growing in tandem and with Asian economies on a roll, the hope is that 2018 delivers continued growth, further confidence, and economic stability for the first time in a decade.” The US job market is heading in the right direction and Europe is experiencing substantial growth. Overall, the global economy is doing pretty well. As we continue into 2018, we should expect to see more growth for both the US and the European nations for the new few years.

Moving to Miami from Out-of-State
There are many reasons why people choose to relocate from one state to the other. Sunny skies, great beaches, diverse culture, sumptuous cuisines, employment opportunities, and being closer to loved ones are reasons out-of-towners have made Miami their new home. Other reasons why people from out of state move to Florida include: no state income tax is a major perk, lower housing costs than many parts of the country, world-class beaches and outdoor entertainment, year-round warm weather, discounts to acclaimed local attractions. But no matter what the reasoning behind your move, we all end up running into the same logistical challenges. For those of you who are in the predicament of moving to Miami from another state, here are a few answers to some questions that will surely help alleviate the headaches that usually come with the move. Moving options A lot of people who relocate to our city from another state tend to do the moving without professional help or movers. Though this choice is the cheapest, sometimes doing all the packing and moving yourself can surely put a hurting on the body, mind, and soul. Here are some other options you can choose. Bekins Van Lines Full-service moves include everything — packing, loading, driving, and unloading — so it’s common for it to be the most expensive. Though Bekins Van Lines is known for full-service moving, they also offer an option where customers can do their own packing to save money. They’ll perform in-home estimates for more accurate quotes or can give ballpark estimates online. PODS PODS is typically thought of as a middle-of-the-road option. A portable storage container is delivered to you, you load belongings inside, and they deliver it to the new location. U-Haul Truck rental is the most do-it-yourself option for a move to a new state. You pack, pick up the equipment, load the truck, drive it, unload it and return it. U-Pack U-Pack operates similarly to PODS in that you do the packing and loading and don’t have to drive. However, thanks to an efficient transportation network, U-Pack offers a broad coverage area and rates often comparable to truck rental. Here are some steps you should take once you make your move: Sign up for a Florida driver’s license or identification card. Update car insurance to reflect your new address and register your car. After the relocation process, you might need to file taxes in two different states if you have earned income in both places throughout the year. Recently, U-Haul announced that Florida was amongst the top five states their customers are relocating to. Panama City, Kissimmee, Brandon, St. Cloud, Melbourne, Davenport, Boca Raton, Bradenton, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami are the popular Florida cities the moving company counted. These people are also coming from all parts of the US, including South America and Europe but no matter where you are coming, once you get settled in, you will definitely be happy you made the move to our wonderful city.

On The Scene with RMG Staffing: Veuve Clicquot Carnaval
Imagine sipping sparkling rosé champagne while mingling with the hottest celebrities in the entertainment world as a remarkable group of Colombian salsa dancers shake their bodies in effortless motion to the sound of Latin rhythms and pop music. On March 21, the renowned Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin French Champagne brand produced their fourth annual Veuve Clicquot Carnaval. Over 4,000 locals, celebrities, and influencers attended the event which was held at Museum Park. “This year, we were excited to expand the event overall,” Aygline Pechdo, vice president at Veuve Clicquot USA stated in a press release. “Our goal is to cultivate a unique, vibrant, and exciting experience for our attendees and continue to grow Clicquot Carnaval into the most highly-anticipated and must-attend event in Miami, year after year.” The festive gathering was in support of Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) and our dedicated team at RMG Staffing was very much honored to have provided the staff for the event. Those in attendance included Insecure actress Issa Rae, Tessa Thompson from the blockbuster movies such as Creed and Thor: Ragnarok, Edgar Ramirez, Joan Smalls, Nacho Figueras, and Tyson Beckford. Also in attendance were social media influencers, journalists, and socialites. “We provided the staff for the Pegasus World Cup Invitational horse race that was held at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach earlier this year,” President of RMG Staffing Ricardo Michelangeli stated. “Veuve Clicquot Carnaval is another luxurious event that attracts successful leaders in various industries. The event has strong brand recognition and Veuve Clicquot is a five-star company that provides premium champagnes. The event was executed to perfection and we were honored to have been chosen to provide the staff that serviced the wonderful attendees.” Along with the salsa dancers, additional entertainment was provided by DJ and fashion tastemaker May Kwok and a live drumming display that included a group of drummers who maneuvered through the crowd, daring the attendees not to dance to the sound their pulsating beats. Veuve Clicquot used the event to celebrate their 200th anniversary of the world’s first blended rosé champagne, which was established in 1818. Italian luxury fashion house FENDI was also there to feature their FENDI x Veuve Clicquot Rosé Charm. The Rosé Charm is a stunning little bag charm colored in Veuve Clicquot’s iconic pink rosé hue. It’s made of soft pastel pink fox fur, with polka-dot motif in shades of orange and tone-on-tone leather lace and includes a palladium-finish spring clip with an engraved Fendi logo tag. The first Veuve Clicquot Carnaval was in 2015. The company brought the event to Miami to pay homage to the city’s tropical atmosphere and international flare. RMG Staffing was pleased to have participated in the event, and we can’t wait for 2019’s celebration.
RMG Staffing Celebrates MLS in Miami
Miami is finally getting its own MLS soccer. The news came in mid-February that retired European soccer star David Beckham was awarded his major-league franchise after a long four-year battle with local leaders for a possible site. Contact us for more information about RMG Staffing or hiring us for your next event in Miami, Fl! “It is with tremendous pride that we welcome Miami to Major League Soccer,” MLS Commissioner Don Garber said in a press release. “With David Beckham, Marcelo Claure, Jorge and José Mas, Masayoshi Son and Simon Fuller leading the way, we know the right people are in place and the time is right for Miami to become a great Major League Soccer city. This ownership is committed to bringing Miami the elite-level soccer team, stadium, and fan experience it richly deserves. We look forward to working with the entire organization on a strategic and successful launch for Miami’s MLS club.” Beckham and the group behind the team won approval to build a proposed 25,000-seat soccer stadium on the western edge of Overtown. Though their authorization has been granted, they still have some regulatory hurdles to overcome. These obstacles include land-use changes, rezoning, and the permanent closure of a road that has a busy intersection. Also, final approval depends on environmental review and a hearing conducted by board members of elected officials. This hearing is set to open to the public. Since the soccer stadium is being fully financed by private funds and won’t be backed by tax dollars, the public is very supportive of the stadium’s site. “Our pledge to our fans in Miami and around the world is simple: your team will always strive to make you proud on the pitch, our stadium will be a place that you cherish visiting, and our impact in the community and on South Florida’s youth will run deep,” David Beckham stated during the press conference that was held to announce the proposed stadium site. Beckham’s road to making MLS in Miami wasn’t easy. His original plan was to have a site next to Miami Heat’s American Airlines Arena. Due to the potential to have catastrophic effects on Downtown Miami’s traffic and the enclosure of a bay view, the plans were scrapped. Beckham and his group then sought a site next to the Miami Marlins’ stadium. Those plans were also scrapped due to the foreseen horror of too much traffic in the area. The proposed Overtown site for the stadium is less densely populated. “I love soccer,” head of Talent Acquisition for RMG Staffing Vanessa Yepes stated. “I grew up watching soccer so having our own team makes me so proud to live in South Florida.” So how will MLS impact us in Miami? The first thing it will do is boost our local sports scene. Miami has a large number of residents from Latin America who love soccer. Having a team of our own will allow us to combine the love we have for our community with the love we have for soccer. The second major impact MLS in Miami will have is the improvement of the local Overtown area. For decades, city leaders have been weighing options to how they can improve the Overtown area. The proposed site will bring jobs to the local community and bring other businesses such as restaurants and create a much-needed nightlife that will also benefit the new condo developments in the area. “Our pledge to our fans in Miami and around the world is simple: your team will always strive to make you proud on the pitch, our stadium will be a place that you cherish visiting, and our impact in the community and on South Florida’s youth will run deep,” Beckham went on to say at the news conference. Since the MLS site isn’t finalized, Beckham and his group have the option to continue to seek other locations in the city. Latest reports from the Miami Herald suggest the group is also looking into the Pepsi distribution center in Doral, the city golf course near Miami International Airport and land inside Hialeah Park and Casino. No matter what they group eventually decides, get ready Miami MLS is definitely coming to our wonderful city. For more details, visit MLS Soccer’s Website.

Your Commute Might Be Improving
We all can agree, the traffic in Miami is a total nightmare. No matter where you live, to get from point A to B usually takes a very long time and if you’re on the road during rush hour your chances in getting to where you need to go in a timely manner go from slim to none. Largely populated cities such as New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles have public transportation systems to help reduce the number of traffic pileups and Miami is one of the top five most populated cities in the country yet we are literally at the bottom when it comes to the efficiency of our public buses and trains. The outlook of South Florida’s public transportation system is so grim that city leaders have been scrambling to find solutions to alleviate commuters from future traffic nightmares. “As a person who commutes in and out of busy Brickell,” RMG Staffing President Ricardo Michelangeli expressed, “I experience bad traffic on a daily basis. Our local government needs to find both short and long-term solutions to Miami’s traffic problems. The longer it takes for employees to get to work the less productive and unhappy they will be at their jobs.” The Miami Herald recently published an article about Miami-Dade’s Mayor Carlos Gimenez traveling to China in search of a cheaper alternative to the Metrorail. Traveling with a group of 50-plus elected officials, county administrators, lobbyists, property developers, the 14-day trip itinerary will focus on a train factory in Zhuzhou, China, where the delegates will get a chance to observe the Chinese factory that is building “a ‘virtual train’ — it’s a rubber-wheeled vehicle (like a bus) that would be able to use autonomous steering to follow painted lines on regular highways alongside automobile traffic,” according to the Miami Herald. The Chinese company built the train in June of last year and Mayor Gimenez and his delegates will get a chance to see the train in action. Also on the itinerary is a stop in Hong Kong, where Mayor Gimenez and company with various other executives in the airline and film industry. Their trip to Japan includes a ride on a high-speed train. Other initiatives involving the private sectors include Brightline, the only privately funded express inter-city passenger rail service in the United States. The company will have two new trains that will provide service in South Florida later this year. The express inter-city passenger service will connect Downtown Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach, with connecting service to Orlando in the next phase. The Downtown Miami terminal is called “MiamiCentral,” and will incorporate retail and office space and will eventually come to include 800 rental units of residency that will open in 2019. The company is also completing a set of rental apartments on the site of their West Palm Beach location. Future plans also include residential apartments near their Ft. Lauderdale terminal. Tri-Rail, which is operated by South Florida Regional Transportation Authority, will continue to separately run its Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach rail line. A ticket on Brightline from Miami to Ft. Lauderdale will cost more than Tri-Rail but will be faster due to their direct destination. Joe Sous is a healthcare executive who works for Miami Jewish Health System in east Miami-Dade County. He lives in Boca Raton and his commute usually averages to 90 minutes each way on Tri-Rail. The new Brightline train will dramatically reduce the time it takes for him to complete a full commute. “It’s only 50 miles door to door, but it’s not the miles that matter, it’s the time,” Sous admitted to the Miami Herald. “How long does [the] commute take from point to point on the train versus by car? We will look at everything, but the Brightline is an enticement for those of us who like suburban areas, or want to live north.” The future of public transportation in South Florida will definitely improve but only time will tell to what degree those improvements will be made.
On the Scene with RMG Staffing: Pegasus World Cup Invitational 2018
South Florida is known for great beaches, wonderful restaurants, and pulsating nightlife. Now thanks to The Stronach Group, we are also being recognized for world-class horse racing. On Saturday January 27, Stronach Group held its second annual Pegasus World Cup Invitational horse race at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach. In front of an excited 10,000-plus record-breaking crowd, 12 horses and their jockeys competed for a $16 million prize. Fans, celebrities, politicians, Miami influencers were there to witness jockey Florent Geroux and his horse Gun Runner win the race in an amazing finish. “The crowd, the entertainment, the fans and of course, our human and equine athletes made this an electric day from early morning into the evening,” Gulfstream’s General Manager Bill Badgett stated in a press release. “The Stronach Group continues to revolutionize the experience of attending a thoroughbred race. We want to thank the wonderful fans and horsemen throughout the world. We feel the Pegasus World Cup Invitational will continue to grow, attract and engage even more of the world’s best horses.” Celebrities in attendance included super producer and former judge of NBC’s The Voice Pharrell Williams, rock star Lenny Kravitz, rappers Post Malone and Ludacris, actress Olivia Culpo, CBS’ NCIS actor Wilmer Valderrama and Latin superstar Prince Royce to name a few. Florida Governor Rick Scott also attended the event. RMG Staffing was definitely there. Our excellent team serviced the private celebrity VIP cabanas at the event. Starr Catering and Design Cuisine provided the delicious meals that highlighted the extraordinary dining experiences we were honored to be a part of. “It was another great night in South Florida,” RMG Staffing’s President Ricardo Michelangeli stated. “Gulfstream is a world-renowned destination and we were very happy that our staff contributed to their continued excellence in bringing the top horse racing competition to South Florida.” Guests enjoyed drinks from Absolut Elyx, Perrier-Jouët and Heineken as they witnessed the exciting race. King of Miami nightlife David Grutman brought out the LIV Boardwalk Village Pop-Up. Porsche Ultimate featured their exclusive high-end sports cars. The glaring atmosphere was enough to make you think you were in an extravagant scene from Leonardo DiCaprio’s “The Great Gatsby” film. After the race, attendees were blessed with a performance by rapper/ singer Post Malone, hosted by Ludacris with spin doctor DJ Ruckus. “The 2018 Pegasus World Cup Invitational was everything we hoped for and more”, said Belinda Stronach, Chairman, and President, The Stronach Group. “It brought together an energetic and diverse crowd, that combined thousands of new fans with our traditional fan base for a day of world-class entertainment and Thoroughbred horse racing like no other.” Broadcasted live on NBC, The Pegasus World Cup Invitational is the richest horse race produced by The Stronach Group. They are one of the preeminent horse racetrack operators and suppliers of pari-mutuel wagering technology. In addition to their property at Gulfstream, the company operates various racetrack across America and is a leader in thoroughbred racehorse breeders, having produced numerous Triple Crown and Breeders’ Cup champions. We can’t wait for the return of Pegasus World Cup Invitational in 2019 at Gulfstream Park. RMG Staffing is an agency based at Miami, we staff all kind of events, contact us!
How RMG Staffing Sees Millennials Impacting the Job Market
How RMG Staffing Sees Millennials Impacting the Job Market According to many surveys, the U.S. economy added a little over 2 million jobs within the past six months. But the number of workers between the ages of 20 to 24 dropped by just over 200,000 jobs during that same period. The 20-to-24 age category was the only group to shed job opportunities during the past six months. Even though the age group of 35 to 44-year-olds showed the second lowest job growth, they still had 200,000 more people than Millennials employed with that same time frame and employment among workers aged 55 and over rose by 742,000. “Millennials, it seems, really are the job hoppers people say they are. Those born between 1980 and 1996 are the most likely to look for and change jobs,” according to Gallup’s new report ‘How Millennials Want to Work and Live.’ The report found that found that 21% of millennial workers had left their job in the last year to do something else, a number that is more than three times higher than that of non-Millennials who report doing the same. Some Millennials might be getting out of the job market to continue their education. They are also the one who are more flexible with their work schedules. According to a new study by Bentley University, 77% of Millennials acknowledged that flexible work hours would make their workplace more productive for people their age. With their consistent usage of social media and technology that allows them to communicate and work anytime and anywhere, this statistic comes as no surprise. But as the millennials become the majority, employers will continuously be pressured to adjust to their preferred work schedules. This leads to the expectation that non 9 to 5 work schedules and telecommuting to become a common workplace practice instead of being labeled as a ‘special privilege.’ Some reports suggested that by 2030 a majority of Millennials will be done away with the 9-to-5 workday entirely. “We’re not there yet—so what will the transition look like?” Alexandra Levit asked on The Muse website. “My guess is that we’ll start with ‘easier to swallow’ flex-work arrangements, such as job-sharing (two employees split the workload and time commitments of one 40-hour per week job), day shifting (some employees work from 7 AM to 3 PM while others work from 10 AM to 6 PM), and on-peak/off-peak work schedules (employees work more hours during their busy season and vice versa).” A look at some Millennial findings from the Intelligence Group: 64% say it’s a priority for them to make the world a better place 72% would like to be their own boss. But if they do have to work for a boss, 79% of them would want that boss to serve more as a coach or mentor 88% prefer a collaborative work culture rather than a competitive one 74% want flexible work schedules 88% want “work-life integration,” which isn’t the same as work-life balance, since work and life now blend inextricably Currently, one in three American workers is Millennials, born between 1982 and 2002. By 2020, it is estimated that Millennials will account for nearly 46% of the active workforce. Based on those findings, RMG Staffing believes Millennials are the future of the workforce.
