How Safe Is Your Workspace
Marjorie is an office manager for a major issuance company based in Miami. A typical day at work for her consists of running to the office supply room to get items requested by her colleagues. Her other duties and responsibilities include answering phones, preparing payroll, record keeping, reviewing and approving supply requisitions; assigning and monitoring clerical functions; the list goes on and on. Though her days at work are often hectic and a bit stressful, Marjorie is able to balance daily duties and responsibilities with eloquent professionalism. But despite her strong ability to manage the ends and outs at her office, one day Marjorie gets injured on the job. It happened when she was in the supply room and was trying to lift a heavy box. She threw out her back. After getting help from a colleague, Marjorie reported the incident to her human resource department. The human resource officer filed the proper paperwork and as company protocol, Marjorie was sent to a medical doctor to examine her injuries. Cases of employees getting injured on the job occur all across the United States on a daily basis. We at RMG Staffing acknowledge that employees are prone to get injured on the job no matter how many safety measures are put in place. But the implementation of the right safety measures does limit the number of employees who get injured. Recently, we held our annual Safety Standard Operating Procedure Meeting and Workshop. During the proceedings, our staff obtained and was updated on the correct way to respond if they or one of their colleagues get injured on the job. The topics of discussion included what one should immediately do after suffering an injury, how a supervisor should be contacted and the proper paperwork to be filed after suffering an injury. “We follow strict guidelines in order to limit the number of injuries our great staff have on the job,” says CEO of RMG Staffing Ricardo Michelangeli. “Our safety brochure has step by step actions to adhere to when such cases occur. Our immediately desire is to make sure the injured employee gets medical attention if needed and in addition, our designated supervisor will make certain the other needs of the injured employee are met. I can’t recommend enough that all employers have these types of safety meetings and workshops on a consistent basis because an injured employee leads to an unhealthy company.” In addition to our Safety Standard Operating Procedure Meeting and Workshop, we also conducted our annual catering, banquet, and events training. The proceeding consisted of informing our staff of the right actions to be taken during the hosting of our amazing clients’ events. Some of the topics of discussion included updating the staff on RMG’s culture, fundamentals and mission statement; grooming standards and what sets us apart from other companies; the do’s and don’ts in our events; helpful hints to being an exemplary team member and guest interactions procedures. We at our RMG Staffing pride ourselves in being the best of the best. We don’t expect you to just take our word for it. Our annual Safety Standard Operating Procedure Meeting and Workshop and events training functions are proof that our excellence is shown through inspirational words, professional manner, and great actions.
The gig economy and its effects on the Staffing Industry
By definition, a gig economy is a work environment where a company uses technology to reach prospective employees or short-term contract workers to fill temporary positions or perform tasks that usually doesn’t take a long time to perform. Sounds weird? Well think of ridesharing app Uber and you’ll get what we mean. Aside from Uber other companies that operate within the gig economy industry include Upwork, Snagajob, Amazon Flex, Etsy and the list goes on. Upwork connects web developers and IT professionals looking for work with companies who are looking to hire for short-term projects. Snagajob is an app you can use to find anything from day labor jobs to positions with big companies. Amazon Flex is the Amazon’s version of Uber, where the company uses regular folks who own cars to make deliveries to customers who order products off their website, and Etsy is a marketplace people use to sell handmade items, vintage products, and other creative goods. There are hundreds of many more out there. If you a Smartphone then you have access to the hundreds of companies that post want ads through these apps. “The trend toward a gig economy has begun. A study by Intuit predicted that by 2020, 40 percent of American workers would be independent contractors. There are a number of forces behind the rise in short-term jobs. For one thing, in this digital age, the workforce is increasingly mobile and work can increasingly be done from anywhere, so that job and location are decoupled. That means that freelancers can select among temporary jobs and projects around the world, while employers can select the best individuals for specific projects from a larger pool than that available in any given area,” Tech Target reported. The staffing agencies were the ones who have traditionally matched these types of workers with employers. Not only did staffing agencies find people jobs they also acted as trusted professionals who provided prospective employees with guidance, training, and extensive career knowledge in their particular field. “Staffing firms typically offer free training to their candidates,” says CEO of RMG Staffing Ricardo Michelangeli. “Whether it’s brushing up on Microsoft Office applications or advice on resume preparation. We at RMG to that and much, much more!” Staffing agencies doing much much more for their candidates is what continues to separate the industry from the gig economy, and it’s the same reason why great companies continue to rely on us for exceptionally skilled workers instead of resorting to apps. In addition, agencies can help candidates through any shift in the current job market and help candidates adjust to those changes. Technology will continue to evolve and we as human beings will continue to do our best to keep up. Experts admit that the gig economy will continue to grow and evolve and we should also expect to see various levels of instability. The Staffing industry has been here since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution and so in other words, we’re not going anywhere.
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.

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.
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.
Artificial Intelligence – Instead of a Hostess, You Have a Robot
We at RMG Staffing will continue to stay on top of the latest trends in the industry. A new wave of the future is coming and no, we’re not talking about 2018. We’re talking about artificial intelligence where computers don’t just perform mental tasks but also think for themselves. It’s called deep learning. It essentially involves feeding a computer system big data, which it then uses to make decisions about other data. This data is fed through neural networks. These networks, called logical constructions ask a series of binary true/false questions, extract a numerical value, of every bit of data which pass through them, and then classify it according to the answers received. IBM’s Watson computer is a perfect example of deep learning artificial intelligence. Watson even appeared and competed against contestants in Jeopardy. The idea for IBM’s Watson had been in existence since the late 1970s and as we head towards 2018 and beyond the capabilities of artificial intelligence will surpass our wildest imagination. This past October the World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology hosted The ICAICS 2017: 19th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science. The conference brought together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of artificial intelligence and cognitive science. It also provided a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of artificial intelligence and cognitive science.One of the conference’s most appealing segment consisted of a talk and paper presented by Lipeng Zhang, Limei Li, and Yanming Pearl Zhang. Titled “Using Information Theory to Observe Natural Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence,” they talked about Pepper, a friendly humanoid robot that uses deep learning to act and think for itself. “Pepper is the first humanoid robot capable of recognizing the principal human emotions and adapting his behavior to the mood of his interlocutor,” SoftBank Group Corp stated, a Japanese multinational telecommunications corporation. “To date, more than 140 SoftBank Mobile stores in Japan are using Pepper as a new way of welcoming, informing and amusing customers. Pepper also recently became the first humanoid robot to be adopted in Japanese homes.” Pepper had also made an appearance at Oakland International Airport. The 4-foot-tall human-shaped robot was hired by Pyramid Ale Taproom in Terminal 2 to drum up business, offer menu advice, give directions and be a charming addition to the dining experience. And during October of 2016, another company brought similar humanoid robots to the San Jose International Airport in San Jose, California. Named Norma, Amelia, and Piper, the three gave travelers airport directions, danced and even took the time to take selfies. Softbank recently announced that it’s highly advanced AI-powered NAO robot is being used by Hilton Hotels across the U.S. as a concierge. In a partnership with IBM’s Watson program, the robots are called “Connie,” and named after Hilton Conrad Hilton. “Connie isn’t simply a NAO robot with some basic programming added. Hilton’s version is powered by Watson software, which enhances its natural language processing so Connie can better understand human speech. It was also designed to improve over time and the more it interacts with people, by storing every question guests ask for future reference. Besides answering inquiries about the hotel, Connie will also be able to recommend tourist spots, restaurants, and other destinations, since it has access to WayBlazer’s travel platform,” Softbank revealed in a press release. These deep learning and artificial intelligence initiatives are taking the businesses and hospitality industry by storm. The humanoid robots will eventually replace kiosks and dramatically improve businesses’ customer service. Will they completely replace humans? Only time will tell.
A Coach For Life
It’s that time of the year again. The time we send the year off with a bang by partying until, well you know, like Prince said. “Like its 1999.” But besides the partying, another thing we usually do around this time of the year reflects and looks back on the good, the bad and the in-between of the previous year. It’s time to think, write down and begin to commit to New Year’s Resolutions. Some of the most popular resolutions tend to be losing weight, stop smoking, career advancement, saving for or buying a new house. Research has shown that about half of all adults make New Year’s resolutions. However, fewer than 10% manage to keep them for more than a few months.The main reason why people don’t stick to resolutions is that they set too many goals or they’re unrealistic to achieve. They may also be victims of “false hope syndrome”. False hope syndrome is characterized by a person’s unrealistic expectations about the likely speed, amount, ease and consequences of changing their behavior. “’New Year’s resolution’ is kind of this buzzword that can make people crazy,” said Dr. Stephen Graef, a sports psychologist at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center revealed to CBS News. “Most people have a toxic relationship with the term. So from the beginning we set ourselves up for failure because we know that anywhere from 50 to 80 percent of people are going to ultimately get off their path of resolution.”In order to be successful in accomplishing New Year’s resolution run must be proactive throughout the entire year. New Year’s resolutions should be a daily task throughout the 365 days of the year and one of the best ways to accomplishing daily goals is to have a life coach. If LeBron James needed a coach on his route to winning a national championship, we all should obtain a life coach in our own route to being successful in life. 7 Reasons Why You Need a Life Coach 1. Makes You More Accountable.2. Saves You Time And Gets You Efficient Results.3. Saves You Money.4. Saves You Stress, Pain And Frustration.5. Gives You Ideas You Never Thought Of.6. Gives You Insights Into Yourself.7. Gives You A Stronger Sense Of Belief And Self-Confidence.But despite the obvious benefits of obtaining a life coach, some still frown at the idea. But really, life coaches, at least the good ones, give you a a great workout for your brain; they know that we are only going to listen to ourselves, because ultimately we’re all a little clueless about our own miraculous epiphany to change anything about our comfortable but unhappy lives. “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it,” is a wise and famous quote from author Charles R. Swindoll. It’s also the same quote Andreina Pradas who runs the Inhance Company located in Miami uses in coaching her clients through the highs and lows. She is described as the “Happiness Ambassador, Coach, Transformer of consciousness and Creator of the 3 Steps to the Profit through Happiness.” A life coach for SBE and Shore Club Hotels, Andreina has also helped our employees at RMG Staffing. To paraphrase RMG Staffing CEO Ricardo Michelangeli, Andreina provides the mentorship and the coaching in our daily pursuit of happiness. The end of the year is upon us. Start thinking about your New Year’s resolution. Write them down. 2018 is set to be an awesome year and one can certainly obtain goals and be happy with the aid of a life coach.Connect with Andreina Pradas.
Staffing Industry Economic Forecast for 2018
The world’s population rose to 7.5 billion in 2017, and as we reach closer to the end of the year, a few more thousand people will be born, and as the global population continues to rise, the more consumers will demand, and the more businesses will be pressured to supply products and services. According to the most recent forecast released at the Federal Open Market Committee meeting on December 13, U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will rise to 2.5% in 2018, similar to the percentage growth of 2017 and in comparison to the 2.1% growth in 2016. But they are also saying that the increase in GDP will drop to 2.1% in 2019 and 2.0% by 2020. Unemployment rates will drop to 3.9% in 2018 and 2019, but rise to 4.0% by 2020, which is an improvement compared to the 4.1% rate in 2017, and the 4.7% rate in 2016. During the meeting, Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen revealed that a lot of workers are part-time and would prefer full-time work. The forecast shows that most job growth is in low-paying retail and food service industries. “Moreover, the economic expansion is increasingly broad-based across sectors as well as across much of the global economy,” Yellen stated in her annual address to the U.S. Congress. “I expect that, with gradual adjustments in the stance of monetary policy, the economy will continue to expand, and the job market will strengthen somewhat further, supporting faster growth in wages and incomes.”Inflation will be 1.9% in 2018 and rise to 2.0% by 2019. We had 1.7% increase in inflation in 2017 and yet these rates were lower than the 2.1% rate in 2016 compared to the 0.7 percent inflation experienced in 2015. The low rates in the previous years were caused by declining oil prices. U.S. manufacturing is forecast to increase faster than the general economy. Production will grow by 2.8% in 2018 and yet growth will slow to 2.6% in 2019 and 2% in 2020.As for our Florida economy, we are expected to surpass the national growth rate. The housing and construction sector is expected to see the fastest growth, with an expected annual average rate of growth of 5.2%, followed by professional and business services growing at 4.5% annually. In addition, Florida economists predict wages to grow by 3.7% year-over-year. “In the South Florida metropolitan area, construction, wholesale trade and education and health services were the fastest growing sectors year over year, and education and health services also added the most jobs, 18,000. After a rough September, leisure and hospitality gains were solid for the month and year over year,” The Miami Herald reported. With this positive outlook for both the national and Florida economy, we can honestly say the best is yet to come, especially for the hospitality industry. Miami Music Week 2018 is just around the corner. Hotels and restaurants are getting prepared. The economic effects of Ultra Music Festival to the surrounding businesses will be gigantic and will assist in pushing South Florida’s hospitality sector throughout the rest of 2018. Despite what 2018 and beyond brings, we at RMG Staffing is fully equipped to continue to provide our current and future clients with the best human resource in the industry.
