SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.,
Dec. 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced that L'OCCITANE
Group, the natural ingredient-based cosmetics and well-being
producer, has deployed SAP® SuccessFactors® solutions for human
capital management (HCM) to help drive its digital HR
transformation across the globe. By implementing the SAP
SuccessFactors solutions, L'OCCITANE has achieved an HR platform
that is consistent across the globe and provides better insight
throughout its retail operations and improved standardization and
efficiency of its HR processes across the group. With reduced
administration of core HR processes and a unified, best-in-class
user experience for employees, L'OCCITANE Group is now better
equipped to attract and retain top talent.
"We chose SAP SuccessFactors solutions to help us simplify and
streamline our HR operations," said Xavier
Meulemans, director of Total Rewards and HRIS at L'OCCITANE
International. "As a global company committed to growth,
effectively attracting and engaging a diverse workforce are
paramount to our continued success. With SAP SuccessFactors
solutions, we're equipped to better manage a flexible and changing
workforce across different geographies and cultures, while also
increasing transparency and efficiency. We're proud to partner with
SAP as we innovate in HR and put people at the center of our
digital transformation."
One of the key HR challenges for the group is aligning different
organizational areas within one global structure. With the SAP
SuccessFactors Employee Central and SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting
solutions deployed internationally, L'OCCITANE's store employees,
managers, HR and corporate office all benefit from having direct
access to employee data for better insights and decision-making.
Furthermore, all candidates now have access to the same
streamlined, easy-to-use application process that is consistent
across the globe.
"The retail industry is one of the most competitive industries
around," SAP SuccessFactors* President Greg
Tomb said. "L'OCCITANE Group recognizes that investing in a
differentiated and digitalized experience for employees today is a
strong investment in the company's future. We're excited to partner
with this leading natural cosmetics group to tell its story about
how its people are at the center of its digital business
transformation, and how SAP SuccessFactors solutions uniquely
support the company's objectives. Seeing how an industry leader
like L'OCCITANE is addressing the realities of today's global
business imperatives can help others better understand what
people-focused transformation can look like for their
organizations. We look forward to continuing this collaboration and
to the success that we hope it will continue to bring."
L'OCCITANE Group is a leading global producer and retailer, and
one of thousands of international organizations using SAP
SuccessFactors solutions to help drive their digital HR strategies
and turn purpose into performance. As companies look to transform
HR to meet the demands of an increasingly global and digital
workforce, they are embracing SAP SuccessFactors solutions to help
optimize HR processes and enhance the employee experience. With
data centers around the world, SAP provides businesses with the
tools needed to deliver a unified employee experience across
borders while also helping to address local and regional
regulations.
