New integration: SD Worx now connects to EMAsphere for powerful HR analysis

It is not a surprise for CFOs that personnel costs can account for up to 80% of a company’s costs. As a result, it is key for Finance managers to analyse HR data beyond the finance data: what is driving the costs and what other metrics give us a closer understanding of the business. This is why EMAsphere is delighted to announce its integration with SD Worx, a leading Human Resources and Payroll services provider in Europe. This strategic collaboration marks a significant step in empowering companies with comprehensive and data-driven decision-making tools.

After Partena, Group S, Officient and Silae for HR, SD Worx too could not be missing from our ever expanding list of providers (+150) to integrate with our reporting and data insights solution. This integration enables C-levels to make informed decisions for their company by enriching their HR data with financial and operational data already present in the solution.

“SD Worx's expertise in payroll and resource management is well established. Today, more than 90,000 companies place their trust in the company. We are delighted with this SD Worx-EMAsphere integration, as more than 4 companies out of 10 have no idea about their absenteeism figures*. The SD Worx-EMAsphere connection is essential for any company wishing to assess the effectiveness of its HR policy and make decisions based on reliable, automatically updated data.”
Bart Baute, CEO - EMAsphere

It has also become mandatory for unlisted companies with more than 250 employees, annual sales of more than €50 million and a balance sheet of more than €25 million (2 of the 3 criteria must be exceeded).
