About us | Protime

Protime is much more than just an organisation that aims to support companies in their workforce management and time registration. Behind each company, there are people who, each in their own way, contributed to building the company culture. Obviously, Protime is no exception to this rule.

But at Protime, we feel that there is something unique. A culture so engaging, our employees made walking the extra mile their second nature.

Founded in 1995, Protime is today a European market leader in time registration and personnel planning.

Protime was founded by Peter s'Jongers and 3 companions at the young age of 25. Entrepreneurship has always been in his blood. But more than just wanting to have a growing business, co-founder and COO Peter s'Jongers was looking for that special cultural fit that made every Protimer #proud of being part of our company.

Our tools are now used in almost 40 countries. We have offices in Aartselaar (BE), Namur (BE), Paris (FR), Luxembourg (LU), Manchester (UK), Waddinxveen (NL), Frankfurt (DE). Today, our team has exceeded 450 Protimers.

"Time is valuable. You can only spend it once."

Why are we here?

Time is precious. You can only spend it once.

In today’s fast-moving environment, organisations must adapt to the speed of external and often disruptive changes. This demands an increasing need for efficiency, effectiveness and flexibility. Thanks to our solutions, Protime helps people get a grip of their precious time and bring value to their organisations. We will be one of the best employers in Europe and find pride in what we do together.

How do we do it?

Company values are the fundamental beliefs of an organisation. These guiding principles dictate behaviour and can help Protimers understand the difference between right and wrong. Core values also help to determine if we are on the right path, fulfilling our goals. They help us to define how Protimers should behave in business.

This is what a Protimer is like:

CUSTOMER FOCUS: WE search the solution, not the procedure
COLLABORATION: WE bundle our talents to get things done
CAMARADERIE: WE share a spirit of trust, respect and friendship
GROWTH: WE pursue growth and learning

Corporate Social Responsability embedded in our culture

Time is precious, you can only spend it once. If we want to get the most out of the available time, we have to aim at being the worlds best employer for every Protimer!

We make a conscious shift from being a ‘great place to work’ towards being the best employer for each Protimer. The ambition is almost the same, but we choose a more internally defined goal. We don’t want to be the best to win games or win a contest, we want to create the best possible version of our workplace in all its facets. We want to have a meaningful impact on every Protimer, the society we operate in and the environment we live in.

Team culture eats Company Culture for breakfast. When every team is the best team to work for, we have the best company to work for. The culture ambassador program is essential is this.

We used the great place to work survey once a year to ask for feedback, but we feel this is not enough. We need to move to a listening organization. One where we use more frequent, shorter surveys in order to take the right actions, evaluate them and listen again.

At Protime we strive to create a workplace where everyone feels seen, heard, valued and empowered to succeed. A workplace where everyone feels like they belong and is treated with respect and equity. This is our internal mission statement where we will work on in the following years Our values will be our compass. Why? Diversity and inclusion means more creativity, innovation and work happiness!

At Protime you can grow every day. Let us make it explicit, so we can facilitate your growth the best way possible. HIKE will even have its own tool in 2023!

Protimers have a natural aptitude in supporting society. Ask around and see how much volunteering is going on. We make time valuable by donating our own time to good causes. In the future we will increase our level of commitment even more.

The environment is not just a fashionable subject. It‘s a vital cause in which we believe we must invest. This means taking small steps on a daily basis, taking action and breaking habits. And not just in our private lives. We already take nature into account when we make decissions, but as of 2023 we will ramp up our efforts with challenging goals!

If you ask a Protimer why he or she loves to work for us, many of the arguments concern their own team! And we totally get this!
Team culture is a major driver for engagement. This is why a culture ambassador in every team will safeguard and nurture team culture.
This ambassador is the right hand of the teamleader when it comes to group values and behavior. They live and breath culture. He or she is an important contact for colleagues if they want to talk about team health or wellbeing.

“They use the values as a guide and focus on valuable connections between team members.”

Our ambassadors guarantee our company culture stays strong by focussing on it throughout the year. Driven by the dream of being the best workplace on the planet, we believe that every Protimer can promote that culture. They are convinced that acting consistently in accordance with our culture, based on clear values and exemplary behavior, makes us stronger as a company, as an employee and above all as a human being.

Protime is a proud daughter of the SD Worx group since 2011. This means that you can benefit from a complete service from time management to payroll management from a single source. Practical, isn't it?
