BetterPlace announced a collaboration with Microsoft to transform employee experience for frontline workers across Asia-Pacific. The collaboration will build on the respective strengths of both companies and leverage the power of AI to develop industry-first solutions tailored for the frontline workforce, estimated to be approximately 340 million across Asia-Pacific.
BetterPlace offers a comprehensive Human Capital SaaS platform in the frontline worker ecosystem to help enterprises reduce inefficiencies in hiring and onboarding of workers, prevent leakages by facial recognition-based attendance management, and reduce the risk of non-compliance through payroll and vendor management.
The platform also fosters positive social impact by increasing frontline workers’ earnings through workforce fulfillment services, digital upskilling and benefits like credit access.
The collaboration will integrate the advanced HCM capabilities of BetterPlace with Microsoft’s enterprise Cloud and AI platform, helping enterprises to effectively acquire, employ and upskill their frontline workforce. The integration of BetterPlace’s advanced analytics platform with Microsoft 365 and Power BI platform will empower enterprises worldwide with deeper employee insights and improved lifecycle management.
The collaboration will also include the development of a mobile-first upskilling program, specifically designed for frontline workers. To address the unique challenges faced by this segment, BetterPlace and Microsoft will create innovative, accessible, and engaging upskilling content optimized for mobile devices.
These career development programs will empower frontline workers with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their roles, while offering flexibility and convenience to accommodate their work environments. By investing in the professional growth of frontline workers, the organizations aim to contribute to a more inclusive and dynamic workforce across Asia Pacific.
