about the event
Message from SAP Romania:
“Turn compliance into confidence and innovation into advantage.”
SAP HR Connect June 2026 is connecting people, processes, and data/AI. This Bucharest edition narrows that promise to the two leadership urgencies of 2026: Pay Transparency and Agentic AI.
A curated, leadership-level experience where HR, Legal, Compensation and business leaders:
-
Understand what the EU Pay Transparency Directive (EU) requires, what “good” looks like in practice, and how to avoid costly missteps (pay ranges, salary history ban, employee right-to-information, pay gap reporting, remediation triggers).
-
See a systems view of compliance across the HR lifecycle—Recruit → Employ → Develop → Reward → Report—with SAP SuccessFactors + SmartRecruiters as the enabling layer.
-
Experience SAP’s AI direction: Joule Agents and agentic AI as practical copilots/agents in HR workflows (case handling, workforce intelligence, talent/succession, payroll/HR Q&A).
Don’t miss HR Connect 2026!
