17,000 employees at leading Midwest health services provider move to web-
based system for appraisals, succession, and compensation planning
OTTAWA – February 11, 2009 – Sisters of St. Francis Health Services, Inc.
has selected Halogen's leading talent management suite to streamline
processes and drive more value from HR strategies. The leading health
service provider has more than 17,000 employees across 13 facilities in
Indiana and Illinois, and offers a broad range of acute care services.
Sisters of St. Francis Health Services is moving from a paper-based employee
appraisal system to a completely automated talent management system
which tightly integrates employee appraisals, 360 and multi-rater feedback,
goal tracking, compensation planning, and succession planning. Sisters of St.
Francis Health Services joins more than 500 healthcare facilities across North
America that rely on Halogen, the clear leader for employee performance
management solutions in the healthcare market.
Halogen was selected over other vendors based on the flexibility of the
solution, the full feature set of applications, and the product suite's
healthcare-specific focus. With multiple locations across two states, it is
important for the Sisters of St. Francis Health Services to deploy a single
system that provides industry best practice solutions to the healthcare
environment.
"In making the move to a Web-based talent management system, it is
important to our organization that we are able to address the needs of each
of our facilities, while establishing a performance-driven culture for all of our
17,000 employees," said Tom Creevey, Vice President Human Resources,
Sisters of St. Francis Health Services, Inc.
According to IDC, in service industries such as healthcare, aging workers are
beginning to retire while younger workers are not entering these fields in
numbers that can maintain the status quo. Employers in these industries are
learning that both attraction and retention are key to sustaining a
competitive edge . The ability to provide constant, fair and consistent
feedback through employee performance management is an important part of
retaining and attracting key staff.
"Halogen is very familiar with the healthcare market and provided positive
customer references from various healthcare organizations. In selecting
Halogen, we are confident that our system will be able to address all of our
hospital's talent management related needs while providing the functionality
HR, managers, and employees need on a day-to-day basis," said David Terek,
HRIS Business Solution Manager, Sisters of St. Francis Health Services.
