The Challenge
Elevating employee proficiency to better serve customers
The Body Shop is a well-known global retail chain in the cosmetics and beauty business. Its Indonesian stores have over 1,200 employees geographically scattered across 42 cities. Flying the whole workforce into one training centre in Jakarta was making it challenging to efficiently and effectively educate and engage them.
Recognising its people as its greatest asset, the company wanted to embark on a journey to digitally transform HR and provide constant updates on the latest industry trends to allow employees to recommend the best beauty and style solutions to customers.
The Solution
Offering prompt online training in the latest beauty industry trends
To keep employees informed about the latest beauty and style trends, The Body Shop implemented SAP SuccessFactors solutions to provide timely online training.
When new information on industry and style trends is available, it can quickly and efficiently be shared with employees online. The SAP SuccessFactors Learning solution allows employees to log in at their chosen time, download training content, and complete it in under 10 minutes.
To help employees perform at their best and increase employee satisfaction, The Body Shop uses the SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals solution to provide 360-degree performance feedback from supervisors and managers. With this feedback, employees can focus on what they do best, understand areas for improvement, and continue working toward their career goals.

Keeping employee satisfaction in mind, The Body Shop transformed HR into a strategic role focused on providing actionable insights and leadership direction by effectively monitoring and managing employee performance.
