Statements

Amt für Berufsbildung, Kanton St. Gallen

«Empiricon had already been responsible for supporting the HR business model project of the Canton of St. Gallen - so it made sense to have Empiricon (co-)develop the BWZ processes based on this. For us, the added value of the collaboration was the wealth of experience regarding our organization and HR processes. Consolidating the views of the various requirement groups as far as possible was a challenge in the project. On behalf of the entire office, I would like to thank them for their truly valued and absolutely professional support.»

The software and consulting services are based on a deep understanding of HR processes and the latest research findings. The application is also intuitive to use and delivers clear and concise results. The insights gained have already led to concrete improvements in various areas and provided us with valuable information that we are using to update our HR policy. Impressed by the in-depth knowledge, professionalism and customer focus, we feel that we are taken very seriously as a customer and valued as a partner. We are convinced that the application for digitalised, structured exit interviews is a worthwhile investment for any company.»

Martin Züst, Project Manager

City of Zurich

«As the largest municipality in Switzerland, the City of Zurich is a very heterogeneous and multi-layered administrative organization with almost 30,000 employees in over 50 departments. Changing framework conditions at an advanced stage of the "Employee Survey 2022" project also required a high degree of flexibility from all project participants. Empiricon did an excellent job of dealing with this complexity. The collaboration with Empiricon was a great pleasure for the municipal project team and a complete success in many respects.»

«We focussed on a range of different aspects when selecting an external partner for our global employee survey. In addition finding a provider with many years of extensive experience in the design and implementation of employee surveys, it was important to us to receive support throughout the entire process – from the development of the questionnaire to the implementation of actions defined on the basis of the results. It was also extremely important to be able to maintain absolute anonymity and guarantee the data protection of our employees. We were highly satisfied with both the service provided and our experience of working with Empiricon through all stages of the project. Empiricon’s consulting team offers unbeatable knowledge and expertise when it comes to designing and conducting surveys, evaluating the results and supporting the follow-up process.»

«In a newly formed HR team with new management, new staff and a range of different challenges, it is important to have a common understanding of strategy and goals, to focus on the key issues, to (re)define the direction, ensure collaboration within the team and reflect on the organisation. Discussing the relevant input, perspectives and mutual expectations in the context of a workshop is a worthwhile contribution to a successful HR future. A professional and goal-oriented workshop moderated by Empiricon further enriches the results and adds an external perspective. Many thanks for your constructive and methodical moderation.»

«Our collaboration was more than just successful - it was productive and extremely enjoyable. The employees of Empiricon we were able to work with combined not only a deep specialist knowledge, but also an extremely pleasant and personable manner. This combination contributed significantly to the results achieved. We were particularly impressed by the flexibility and customer focus that were always at the forefront of our collaboration. No matter what adjustments we had to make, the team always found constructive solutions. Reliability was a constant that we could rely on at all times. We will use the employee survey we introduced as an organization in the long term to continuously reflect on working conditions as well as corporate and management culture and develop them further together. Many thanks for the outstanding collaboration!»
