With a team of technical professionals, they make an important daily contribution to industrial projects in the region.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The HR issue<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Scalar faced a clear challenge: attracting and retaining scaffolding and hoist technicians. In addition, they wanted to be less reliant on freelancers and instead invest more in their own employees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The question was: how do we build a sustainable recruitment and retention strategy that suits our organisation?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What did they do within the programme?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, the target audience and the way Scalar presents itself as an employer were examined. Based on this, the recruitment strategy was refined and concretely translated into campaigns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the target group has been more clearly defined (with a focus on young talent)\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>worked on stronger campaign visuals and copy\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the salary explicitly included in communication\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>considered career changers and internal training\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What did the process yield?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new approach yielded immediate results: Scalar conducted multiple job interviews and has already hired a new employee.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, the process exposed another challenge: internally, there was insufficient capacity to properly guide the entire recruitment and selection process. Therefore, Scalar opted for an HR consultant who handled this entire process from A to Z. In addition to these duties, the HR consultant was also deployed for a long-term HR strategy, an onboarding day for new employees was organised, and a central point for HR information was established. HR thus acquired a more central role within the organisation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scalar wanted to attract and retain more technical professionals while reducing its reliance on freelancers.
