Workers now look for ‘perfect match’ with employers based on values
Ricoh Europe, 15 May 2019 – Today’s workforce is more united than ever in its demand for a seismic change in the way we all conduct business in the future.

- 64% of workers agree sustainability needs to be at the centre of business and product strategies in the next five to ten years

- An average of 63% across all generations think the way the world does business will change dramatically in the next five to ten years
