In India, SAP received recognition once again as one of the "Best
Workplaces" by the Great Place to Work(R) Institute. According to the "Best
Workplaces in India" Study, 2008, SAP Labs India is one of the top 50 best
workplaces in the country across various industry sectors and is among the top
five employers in the information technology (IT) software category. In China,
SAP was recently honored as an IT Industry Employer of Choice at the "Top
Chinese IT Employers of 2007" award ceremony, sponsored by the leading IT
publication, China Information World, and the industry consulting company,
CCID Consulting. This was the first award of its kind for the Chinese IT
industry. In the Americas, SAP Mexico earned a distinct ranking as a "Super
Enterprise" in "The Companies Everybody Wants to Work For" ranking by TOP
Companies. SAP Mexico was ranked as number 22 overall and number four within
the IT & Services Segment.
SAP also ranked 16th in a European survey and, as a result, was named as
one of the "50 Best Large Workplaces in Europe to Work for," according to the
Great Place to Work(R) Institute. This came on the heels of SAP's recognition
as "Germany's Best Employer" in the category of "Companies With More Than
5,000 Employees" for the fourth consecutive year in 2008 (see February 13,
2008 press release titled, "SAP Named 'Best Employer' in Key Global Markets").
Earlier this year, SAP Japan also ranked among the top 20 companies for the
second time.
High survey rankings awarded by existing SAP employees in various
locations demonstrate the continued importance the company places on its
talent management and attraction. Personal responsibility for achieving
superior customer orientation, innovation and quality awareness, as well as
striving to deliver first-class products, were cited as the definitive
characteristics that make SAP a great place to work.
"Today's world-class talent expects a world-class working environment,"
said Claus E. Heinrich, executive board member, SAP AG. "We have the highest
appreciation for our team members across the globe, and we are honored to be
recognized in turn as their preferred employer. The contributions from our
diverse employee base continue to drive the innovation and entrepreneurial
spirit that sets SAP apart as a company."
As a global leader in business and IT innovation, SAP invests in talent
development by offering a variety of global employee enhancement programs. A
"Skills on Demand" library provides employees with access to more than 13,000
e-learning courses, skill briefs, job aides, books, simulations and other
learning materials that helps employees to expand their skill sets. In 2007,
SAP launched the Career Success Center (CSC), a global resource that allows
employees to plan, manage and develop their careers in-line with the needs of
the business. The company also established SAP Inspire, an initiative that
encourages employees to effectively turn creative ideas into winning business.
