The human resources department at OPTIMA packaging group is the recipient of the prestigious Allianz Industrie 4.0 award presented by the Baden-Wuerttemberg department of commerce for pioneering work in human resource management in the digital age.
Director of human resources Sebastian Henke in July accepted the award for solutions that demonstrate the added value of digital networking. It was the first time the Baden-Wuerttemberg state association of the VDMA (German mechanical engineering industry association) presented the award to a human relations department.
In its submission, the Schwaebisch Hall firm described several innovations that support “Human Resources as an Accelerator of Transformation.” The firm employs 2,400 at 19 locations worldwide.
