Telefonica Digital expects to save at least 30 to 40 percent through cloud based HR software over the next three years.

The communications giant has invested millions in procuring HR software from Workday, however expected savings would deliver savings that paid for the investment within two years.

The system will consolidate applications while providing a flexible platform that can be rapidly implemented.

HR costs have also been achieved through the promotion of BYOD and integration of HR systems across different regions.
