LONDON, June 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP SE (NYSE:
SAP) today announced leading international bank HSBC Holdings plc
as the 2019 recipient of the Klaus Tschira Human Resources
Innovation Award for digitally transforming its HR offering to
serve its workforce of 275,000 people more effectively. Along with
the award, SAP will make a €10,000 donation to the National
Autistic Society, the United
Kingdom's leading charity for autistic people and their
families, on behalf of HSBC.
"HSBC has made its employees the focus of its digital HR
transformation," said Greg Tomb,
president, SAP SuccessFactors. "The inclusion of differently-abled,
neuro-diverse people is a shared vision of both HSBC and SAP. Our
own Autism at Work program builds a culture of inclusion by
recognizing the unique skills and contributions of autistic
colleagues, and we are honored to make this donation to the
National Autistic Society."
As part of its mission to deliver the innovative financial
products and services that its 39 million customers worldwide
expect, HSBC understands it must digitally transform its own
organization – including HR. With the help of the cloud-based SAP®
SuccessFactors® HCM Suite, HSBC can more effectively manage its
employee experience, from compensation and career development to
succession planning.
As a global organization, HSBC is tasked with scaling its HR
transformation across 275,000 employees and contractors across 65
countries. Since HSBC first began its digital HR transformation
project in 2015, it has been able to:
- Streamline and simplify its HR infrastructure, processes and
services
- Provide HR professionals and managers a single platform to
access people data in real time
- Enable employee feedback to be shared and received with
ease
- Deliver improved HR search functionality
- Reduce the number of technical integrations reliant on HR data
by 40 percent
- Reduce people policies by 30 percent, making them more
accessible and relevant
The Klaus Tschira HR Innovation Award commemorates SAP cofounder
Klaus Tschira's vision to help organizations unleash the full
potential of their employees. It is awarded annually to a customer
of SAP SuccessFactors solutions who exemplifies a unique and
innovative implementation of HR technology.
"Over the past several years, HSBC has been focused on setting
the foundation for future growth, innovation and change," said
Alex Lowen; general manager and
head; Group Performance, Reward, People Analytics and HR
Transformation; HSBC Group. "As we continue on this journey, we're
committed to further leveraging next-generation technologies in HR
to support employee engagement, learning and well-being. I would
like to thank SAP SuccessFactors for its generous donation to the
National Autistic Society, a charity that works to improve the
lives of autistic people and their families."
Since 1962, the National Autistic Society has been the
United Kingdom's leading charity
campaigning for autistic people's rights and providing support and
advice to autistic people and their families. The organization's
goal is to help transform lives, change attitudes and create a
society that works for autistic people. About 70,000 autistic
people, their families and friends are able to receive support
through its helplines.
