Brussels 3 December 2019 – Employees are (still) clocking in when they arrive at work at a huge number of companies in Belgium, Germany, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Eight out of ten companies register when their employees start and stop work using a conventional time and attendance (T&A) system: a card reader, a time clock, Excel sheets, or even paper. An international study by HR service provider SD Worx and specialist in time registration and personnel planning Protime has found that digital and biometric alternatives – such as logging in with an app or fingerprint scan – are far less common.
Antwerp, 29 November 2019 – Cathy Geerts has commenced her role as Chief HR Officer at HR service provider SD Worx. In her new position, Cathy Geerts will join the SD Worx Executive Committee and report directly to CEO Kobe Verdonck.
London 12th November 2019 – Nearly three-quarters of European employers (69%) trust the HR department to provide HR data-based insights and appreciate the added value these can bring (73%). This is according to new research surveying both HR and non-HR business decision makers, from leading HR and payroll provider SD Worx. The three biggest business areas where HR data-based insights can have impact are: employee costs (45%), employee satisfaction & engagement (45%) and productivity (42%). The top-3 potential barriers for embracing HR data-based insights are: lack of communication between HR & the wider business (29%), costs associated with it (27%) and internal structures limiting innovations (27%).
