What role do values and purpose play in a highly dynamic world of work? How is the labor market developing in the face of a shortage of skilled workers, advancing digitization, and a difficult economic situation caused by factors such as supply chain problems or the war of aggression on Ukraine? And how is it possible to carry out successful HR work in these environments long term despite these challenges? Answers to these questions were discussed at the trade fair surrounding the 30th presentation of the German Human Resources Management Award. The event is the largest European platform for an exchange of views on HR management between a wide range of companies at eye level.
Outstanding and innovative human resources (HR) projects were again closely examined this year. The highlight of the evening: the award ceremony for the Human Resources Management Award 2022.
Jury member Dr. Sabine Voermans, physician, health scientist and head of health management at the German health insurance company Techniker Krankenkasse, gave the laudatory speech for Fendt. Decisive for the first place in the category "Corporate Health Management and Mental Health" were the overarching health mission statement, as well as the strategic project "Wir im Dialog". The project is jointly supported by the company health management team, the works council and the management. "Wir im Dialog" aims to develop a culture of prevention in regular discussions between managers and employees. This promotes permanent exchange and improves the working atmosphere.
"The labor market is changing and challenging HR departments. Our new sustainability strategy focuses on the well-being of employees in one area of action. The topic of holistic health is particularly close to my heart. I am all the more pleased to receive this award for our company health management," says a delighted Ingrid Bußjäger-Martin, Managing Director for Finance and IT Fendt.
11 jury members decide in six categories
Awards were presented in six categories: Recruiting & Employer Branding, Training & Dual Studies, Leadership & Culture, Corporate Health Management and Mental Health, HR-Tech & Digital and Talent Learning. From 78 applicants, an independent jury of eleven nominated three companies per category. The jury consists of different experts from the fields of human resources, health management, marketing, labor market and psychology. In addition to the jury voting, there was an additional public online voting a few days earlier with a total of 16,000 votes to decide the places one to three. In this voting, votes could be cast during a Virtual Warm-Up Workshop on September 8, 2022, and also via the link on the website of the German Human Resources Award.
