An Employer Value Proposition statement, which represents why talent chooses one company over others, can be challenging to define. So don’t be shy to take cues from some of the world\u2019s successful companies when developing your own<\/em><\/p>\n

At its most basic, an Employee Value Proposition (EVP) statement describes what employees get in return for the skills, experience, and other competencies they bring to a company.\u00a0 It summarizes the characteristics, benefits, and ways of working in an organization, and serves as the \u201cagreement\u201d between the company and employee in return for the latter\u2019s contribution and performances. Externally, it also characterizes the company and helps differentiate it from its competitors.<\/p>\n

Choosing One Employer Over Another<\/h4>\n

An aspect of the overall employer brand, an EVP statement is essential when competing for talent. For example, when an employee is choosing between employers who offer similar wages and benefits, a notable one is what may ultimately help the qualified candidate choose one employer over the other.<\/p>\n

According to various research, when candidates eventually decide on a job offer, the key consideration for them is how the company would impact their career advancement and how stimulating the job will be. Turns out it\u2019s not always about the money after all.<\/p>\n

A great EVP statement can best convey what benefit a company offers an employee, while delivering on it as promised also eventually helps retain employees and keep them engaged.\u00a0At its core, an EVP statement answers the question \u201cWhat\u2019s in it for me?\u201d<\/em> for current and potential employees.<\/p>\n

\n

Developing an EVP<\/h2>\n

Developing a strong EVP matters because it is the foundation of your brand and your company\u2019s external recruiting and internal retention efforts.\u00a0 Now, while it\u2019s tempting to form random value propositions into a catchy statement and have it placed on your social media pages or have stencilled beside your office logo for everyone to see, it is important to make sure it still reflects the values that are actually embodied in your workplace.<\/p>\n

For example, if an EVP can talk about how much the employees enjoy working for the company, but the statement has actual employees rolling their eyes at it; or, it tells of how it cultivates a family atmosphere, but is then reputed to not properly cover its employees\u2019 government mandated benefits; then the EVP is evidently to the contrary and needs to be revised. Or discarded altogether.<\/p>\n

Current and future employees are the best advocates for a brand, but in turn will not buy into that role if the statement is not in line with what they observe or experience. With that, an EVP\u2019s development always begins internally, being tested on current employees before being marketed to potential hires.<\/p>\n

While something of an arduous process, surveying employees should be considered when crafting an EVP, not necessarily to only uncover negatives, but also to discover and isolate the positives. Asking current employees about what they love about the company is almost always the ideal starting point when crafting a strong EVP statement.<\/p>\n

EVP Examples From Some of the World\u2019s Most Recognized Companies<\/h2>\n

The fundamental question asked when crafting an EVP is \u201cwhat do we offer our employees in exchange for their time and effort?\u201d<\/em>, and as their needs and what they offer evolves, so too does the EVP.<\/p>\n

Even some of the world\u2019s most recognizable brands didn\u2019t hit home runs with their initial EVP statements. And, even when some of them did, they eventually had to redevelop it to keep up with the times and remain relevant with the increasingly competitive job market.<\/p>\n

The following are some notable EVP statements that have been utilized by major companies to separate themselves from not only their competitors within their respective industries, but also other significant brands whom they have to compete with in terms of branding and for talent.<\/p>\n

The examples above hopefully prove helpful in your development of your own official EVP. Once decided upon, experts recommend it be shared with new hires and job candidates, as well as current employees, and they in turn will help communicate the value the company offers to others.<\/p>\n

Experts also emphasize the importance of reviewing the EVP\/s regularly to ensure relevance. This can be achieved by asking questions related to the EVP when employees join or leave the company, during their performance reviews, and by running periodical employee surveys that provide ongoing data about how they identify with the company and its EVP statement.<\/p>\n
