Belonging in Action
Creating workplaces where people feel seen, valued, and supported is more than a philosophy at Staffmark Group. It is the way we operate every day. As our workforce has become more remote and hybrid, we noticed something many companies have felt too. A sense of belonging can easily fade without intentional effort. That is why our Business Resource Groups, or BRGs, have become such an important part of who we are as an organization.
I recently sat down with Staffing Industry Analysts’ senior editorial director, Craig Johnson, to talk about what this shift really means. Here are a few of the key insights I shared about the opportunities and the growing pains of this new era:
National Hispanic Heritage Month at Staffmark Group
National Hispanic Heritage Month, observed each year in the United States beginning on September 15, celebrates U.S. Latinos—their culture, history, and contributions. First established by Congress in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week, it was expanded to a month-long celebration in 1988. The observance begins in mid-September to align with the independence days of several Latin American nations: Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica all celebrate on September 15, followed by Mexico on September 16, Chile on September 18, and Belize on September 21.
Juneteenth at Staffmark Group: Honoring Freedom, Uplifting Community
Since its designation as a federal holiday in 2021, Juneteenth has gained more widespread recognition, but for many of us, it has always been sacred. This year, I was proud to celebrate it not just personally, but alongside colleagues across Staffmark Group, through acts of service, joy, and community.
