RGE adopts Workday HCM to modernise HR processes

Royal Golden Eagle (RGE), a producer of natural fibres, edible oils, green packaging and clean natural gas used to create products that feed, clothe and energise the world, has deployed Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) to digitally transform its HR processes and capabilities across its workforce.

With Workday’s HCM, RGE’s people managers and employees now have greater autonomy over HR processes such as performance reviews and career development planning. This enables RGE to develop its workforce more effectively and efficiently by fostering a high-performance culture that encourages its employees to continually reskill and upskill to stay relevant.

Bey Soo Khiang, Vice Chairman of RGE, explained, “With the rapid pace of change in today’s workforce, as a company, we need to harness digital transformation across all areas of the business to adapt to changes quickly and more effectively. Workday’s simple-to-use interface makes it much easier for us to streamline our people process, allowing us to manage our workforce more efficiently on one platform.”

With a 60,000-strong workforce across multiple markets, RGE required a single, unified HR system that works across all markets and reduces silos created by legacy and disparate systems. RGE is now able to consolidate all its workforce and employee data on a single platform with Workday’s HCM system, enabling the standardisation of HR processes and enhanced workflows across the entire organisation. With complete visibility across the entire talent management process, RGE can mine actionable insights and make smart, data-driven decisions that translate to business value and drive sustainable growth.

RGE’s purpose-driven approach and adoption of new technology for digital transformation have supported it in its efforts to be innovative. The company is committed to preparing its IT ecosystem for a digital-first future by leveraging technology to personalise the employee experience and redesign existing workflows.

Sandeep Sharma, President of Asia for Workday, concluded, “Amid the transition to a digital-first economy, having the right technology and processes that cater to effective talent management will be crucial in developing the workforce of the future. Workday is committed to supporting RGE in its expansion amid the evolving talent demands of an increasingly digital landscape.”
