About Brønnøy Kalk

When you flip through the pages of a magazine, it's likely that you're holding paper made with lime from Velfjord in your hands. Brønnøy Kalk AS, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Norsk Mineral Group, is a leading supplier of lime to Omya Hustadmarmor AS.

The challenges

Brønnøy Kalk wanted to manage HR processes more efficiently, with better control, and to avoid paperwork going between offices to modernize and simplify the everyday lives of employees.

With a lot of manual work involved, it has been challenging to keep simplified processes on staff follow-up and conducting appraisals to guide employees through their professional development and competence building.

• We see that there are several areas within HR that need improvement, and we needed a system that could make our HR processes more efficient and more manageable than they are today. Today we have some digital and some on paper, and now we want a system that gives us better control and a better overview. 4human will help us to follow up on the employees even better, says Maja Cecilie Fagerland, Finance and HR Manager at Brønnøy Kalk. 

Better access to information about different procedures and policies also needed to be simplified, while improving the handling of incidents, actions and feedback. A more structured and digital approach was essential to streamline processes and ensure nothing fell between the cracks.

• "Most of our employees work outdoors and are dependent on coming in to the administration or contacting their immediate manager to get information about policies and procedures that are available here in paper form. We wanted to improve this," says Raymond Langfjord, general manager of Brønnøy Kalk.

Total value together with 4human : 

The structured approach to competence development will ensure that employees get the necessary skills to succeed in their roles, and the digital platform will help modernize the workplace.

By collecting all incidents, actions and feedback in one place will this will also contribute to a better overview and more efficient and time-saving procedurer for incident reporting.

Summary:

Brønnøy Kalk has not only invested in solutions; they have invested in a future characterized by efficiency, quality and a simplified everyday life. We are proud to be their partner on this transformative journey and look forward to creating even more value together.
