THE GROUP

Who we are and
what we do

RACER Benchmark Group GmbH is a leader in comparative analyses of employee surveys in Europe. The group provides excellent benchmarks and best practices in the context of personnel research for companies.

As an independent company, RACER Benchmark Group GmbH evaluates employee surveys that are currently conducted regularly by 17 leading companies in the German-speaking world. The RACER Group conducts intelligent benchmarking in various facets on the basis of more than 2 million data records from over 70 countries and on the basis of aggregated and anonymised data from its respective member companies.

 

 

„If you can’t measure it, you can’t get it!“

„The key for us, number one, has always been hiring very smart people.“

 

 

WE WANT TO GROW

After establishing the RACER Benchmark Group as a limited company, our goal is further growth. We are looking for you!

We currently have a potential benchmarking volume of well over 2 million employees* in our member companies. In core questions, this data is available for more than 70 countries*. This makes the RACER Group the global leader in anonymised benchmarking based on aggregated data.

With the new online database of our service partner IPSOS, data can be accessed 24/7 and directly from any location at any time.

The focus of growth is not only on other corporate groups, but also on larger medium-sized companies, market leaders and “hidden champions”. With this shoulder-to-shoulder approach, both more differentiated and more accurate benchmarks can be generated. The gains in the area of “best practice” would be equally promising for SMEs and corporate groups.

*We will be happy to inform you personally about the current and exact status at any time.

„Train people well enough so they can leave. Treat them well enough so they don’t want to.“

 

 

BY CONVICTION

That’s what our members say.

With the benchmarking approach represented by the RACER Benchmark Group, management as well as those responsible for ES in corporate groups and medium-sized companies have at their disposal a very systematic, methodically secured and scientifically elaborated approach for the evaluation and interpretation of the complex ES data in the company! Benchmarking is an important methodological approach that is used at all management levels.

Detlef Hartmann

CEO, RACER Benchmark Group

Who are the best consultants for the company? The employees. They know best how to promote the corporate culture and increase economic success. Using qualified benchmarks on employee feedback from other successful companies, we find the right levers for deriving measures.

Dr. Silke Wechsung

Vice President HR Development & Diversity, TÜV Rheinland

In addition to benchmarking, the focus is on the exchange of best practices or alternative solutions in the RACER Benchmark Group. Through the group, I get direct feedback on where we stand as a company on various issues. Furthermore, I can coordinate with other member companies on how their packages of measures look like in order to increase employee engagement.
