About

Me@Work enables the FNB HR strategy by delivering an employee centric experience on the FNB Banking App.

Innovation presentation

As a business our purpose was born some 180 years ago and has evolved over time. But it is still as simple now as it was then – the customer is at the centre of everything we do.

At FNB we innovate, align and integrate our HR practices to deliver on an employee centric experience, aligned to the promises we make through our brand, enabled by data and technology platforms. Digitizing the workforce experience and increasing accessibility to staff functions through mobile devices was identified as a key enabler of the FNB HR strategy. This required an employee centric approach to enable a growing mobile, and flexible workforce within the organization. FNB HR chose to re-use our highly successful and award-winning FNB Banking APP to deliver an engaging and simplified user experience. HR, together with FNB technology teams collaborated to deliver a real-time experience addressing employee needs. In just over 12 months since the launch of employee functions on app, there has been significant utilization, surpassing our expectations and enabling us to fast-track the decommissioning of legacy channels.

Uniqueness of the project

In line with our platform business model, supported and enabled by technology. FNB HR delivers a bespoke, employee centric experience based on our unique employee needs that traditional HR technology vendors were not fully able to provide.

Key differentiators:

- True app functionality that provides a rich, secure, interactive experience that can fully leverage device features such as camera, fingerprint reader etc.

- An intuitive, self-service channel that empowers employees to access transactional HR functionality from anywhere and at any time.

- An internal group-wide job application solution enabling users to set job alert preferences and providing a standardized applicant profile. Additional functionality includes integrated help and status tracking of applications.

– Delivers efficiencies across the HR value chain through ease of access and the simplification of transactions.

– Reduced costs for delivery of service when compared to cost of developing and maintaining legacy channels.
