As we head into the end of the week, I always think of the many cleaners that are either finishing the week or have cleans to be performed. And like Rosie in the video, the question I ask is - are the cleaners getting treated as they should be? Yes, the impression in the video is of a gig worker, and the first impression that comes to mind is an Uber driver, or maybe a DoorDash delivery person, but what if I told you that the Fair Work Commission changes, due August 26, 2024, class cleaners as gig workers in Australia. Why? Because most cleaners are underpaid, mistreated, and incorrectly classed as contractors (over 80% percent of the cleaning industry operates like this - Sham Contracting) when they actually employees. So I ask you, if your cleaners, like Rosie are trying to earn a living, but getting to some payment that equates to $7 per hour, do you think this is fair? There is a solution - for everyone to accept that all workers deserve to be paid correctly, even if this means that the cleaning costs will go up. And just like Rosie, when she sees an opportunity to get a well paid job, where she is treated well, we get cleaners approach us. Cleaners hear from their relatives, their friends, and our current cleaners about how we treat our team, and contact us, asking how do they get a job with us. And to you, what is the outcome? A cleaner that is so appreciative to have the job, so happy to at last be paid correctly, so happy to have the training and support, they do their ultimate best to deliver to you, our clients and us, the best standard they can. So as we all end a week, I ask for some thought to be given to the Gig workers - the ones that work the hours most of us don't like to even think about working, and ask are they being treated fairly?

Journal entry: 22/05/2024 Day 52 of seeking employment and I believe cabin fervour is starting to set in! Today, feels much like the proceeding days and weeks. The routine is as so. Get up, say morning to the house mate (AKA the wife don't tell her I said this about her), drink several coffees, review employment boards alongside what organisations are offering on their own sites. Apply to a number of potential opportunities, with the realisation that I will hear no response, regardless of the subsequent follow ups to the team or personal email, indicated in the application. I fear my communications aren't getting out!! Then it's chasing the tribal packs know as, Recruiters. (I jest. the vast majority are good) After which the days are spent planning next steps and strategies for the following day. My worry is, if the house mate (AKA the wife) catches on quick there will be a list of house hold jobs to be completed, and I have no excuses. If you are reading this entry and know of an opportunity to save my sanity, message be directly, before all hope is lost. #frauddetection #newopportunities #riskmanagement

As Halloween casts its eerie glow, one industry is experiencing a spine-chilling boom: funeral service jobs. This sector saw a 102% increase in jobs from Q3 to Q4. With experienced workers retiring faster than new hires can fill these roles, demand for Funeral Directors, Embalmers, Funeral Services Assistants, Arrangers, and Attendants is at an all-time high. Wondering which other industries are creeping up in demand? Get in touch to uncover the latest labor market trends. 🎃 Happy Halloween! 🎃 #LaborMarketIntelligence #FuneralJobs

At Nicky Mehta London, we do things differently… Our goal is always to provide our clients with an exceptional level of service and a gold-standard experience, which means we do things a bit differently than your traditional virtual PA agency 👀 It all starts with who you work with. Some Virtual PA agencies act a bit like Uber. When a task is asked of them, it gets assigned to whoever is available. But at Nicky Mehta London, we know the importance of the personalised approach. If you need us to book you a flight, we’ll be booking the exact seats you like, to the meal you love when you're on the plane ✈️  You see, as our valued client, we get to know you inside out, so that we can make your day as easy as possible!  This is why, when you sign on to work with us, you’ll be assigned a dedicated PA who will always be working for you so they get to know you really well and you experience true continuity when working with us! Something else we do differently is we charge by the minute. We’re extremely transparent in how much time every task takes us and we don’t believe in rounding up for the sake of it!  Perhaps the biggest difference when it comes to our agency is we go above and beyond the standard services and we’re able to do this because of our team's extensive experience and contacts in a variety of industries ⚡  The projects we work on can be wildly different and our packages are tailored to your bespoke needs.  Want us to plan your trip to Tokyo and book you a choreography class with an actor from Kill Bill at the same time…we’ve got it covered! (and yes, that’s a real client example!).  We pride ourselves on being able to cater to your exact needs with a personal level of service that leaves our clients feeling like they’ve struck gold 🩵 Not having to worry about organising events, getting caught up in completing tasks you don't have time for and eliminating the stress that comes with your daily life! Ready to discover how a Virtual PA can transform your life? Let’s chat about how we can work together!  https://lnkd.in/e-JnEBSK  #executiveassistant #virtualexecutiveassistant #londonassistant #travelorganisation #luxurytravel
