European Human Capital Effectiveness Report
2010 marks the 17th edition of the European Human Capital Effectiveness Report - a comprehensive source of human capital measurement data.
The report provides a portfolio of clearly defined quantitative workforce performance metrics alongside comprehensive benchmark data from organisations across a range of industry sectors in Europe.
PwC’s 13th Annual Global CEO Survey confirms a number of the key people themes that will be at the forefront of business leader’s planning following the global downturn:
- in the wake of the financial crisis, 79% of CEOs said they wanted to change their strategy for managing talent;
- 66% of CEOs plan to increase investment in this area over the next 3 years;
- 39% of CEOs are expecting to increase headcount over the next 12 months.
In order to effectively manage talent and maintain and improve the impact of people on business performance, organisations must have access to accurate data. Our report offers organisations objective data to help evaluate performance and optimise their return in investment in their people.
Content and coverage
The analysis covers the latest comprehensive data submissions from more than 800 PwC Saratoga clients collected from January 2008 to the autumn of 2009. The following areas of metric measurement are covered:
- Human capital impact (financial impact, productivity and ROI)
- Human capital engagement (resourcing, learning & development, compensation & benefits, absence, turnover)
- Human resource function (size and cost of the function, outsourcing, HR roles and remuneration)
- Workforce structure (diversity, span of control, percentages of management and professionals)
Metrics are analysed across five dimensions: industry sector, country, organisation size, revenue size and the rate of revenue growth, and presented both graphically and numerically.
