Accelerated talent development and fully empowered employees
Human resource (HR) management is key to business sustainability. 2021 marked the first anniversary of BorgWarner acquiring and integrating Delphi Technologies and successfully merging the corporate cultures and talent of both companies. Now, with its Charging Forward strategy, BorgWarner is working to accelerate talent and empower employees by building its pipeline, evolving skills, engaging people, re-skilling its workforce around electrification and software, talent discovery and deployment, and increased human resource planning.
Efficient response to the pandemic through Agile Work
In the past year, the way that people did business, studied and lived was impacted greatly as the pandemic continued around the globe. At BorgWarner, the most important thing, as always, is to keep employees and their family members safe and healthy and fulfill its commitment to protecting them and their communities. Demonstrating this commitment, BorgWarner launched the concept of Agile Work, allowing employees to work in different ways, e.g., remotely, flextime or from home to ensure they are able to work safely, effectively and efficiently under any circumstances, without any interruption.
Flexibility in business management enhanced by digital
Not only has the pandemic changed the way people work, but it has accelerated the digitalization of business management. BorgWarner transformed and went digital internally, developing eWork processes for staff daily work flow, administration management, facility feedback, IT services, etc. The digital platform for human resource management will also go live soon, providing employees with professional online services. In addition, to make HR management even more efficient, BorgWarner has created a recruitment platform and an employee self-service HR system on WeChat, offering a rich set of features.
Outstanding corporate culture that helps drive the industry
In terms of corporate culture, BorgWarner upholds such values as entrepreneurship, down-to-earth mentality, focus on results, dare to challenge, responsibility and care for others. Immediately after the acquisition of Delphi Technologies, BorgWarner carried out the Be Heard Engagement Survey across its global operations to get a full understanding of what employees think and expect, thus enabling continuous improvements within the organization. The company also values ESG responsibilities and has been dedicated to Corporate Social Responsibility for years. BorgWarner gives back to its communities in a variety of ways including: educating young people by facilitating employee volunteers to provide Junior Achievement classes in local schools and collaborating with the University of Nottingham Ningbo China on a Chinese engineer and summer internship program, among others. BorgWarner Moves, a program dedicated to turning employee kilometers walked into monetary donations, is another example of the company encouraging its employees to take part in various social activities for the good of their communities, and for the good of themselves.
