Workday Formed Strategic Alliance with Equifax to Improve Client Experience
A further development is that Workday and Equifax, a leader in data, analytics, and technology worldwide, have formed a strategic partnership. The goal of this collaboration is to make employment and income verifications easier for WDAY’s clients.
The goal of the agreement is to enhance the verification process’s efficiency and user-friendliness by merging Workday Payroll and Equifax’s The Work Number service. This innovation will streamline processes for employees applying for loans and government assistance, freeing up HR staff to concentrate on more strategic tasks like employee performance and wellbeing.
It is anticipated that the merging of its secure platform with Equifax’s credentialing capabilities would maximize operational efficiency, cut expenses, and improve assistance for staff members at important life milestones, including buying their first house.
It is projected that its new optional Employment Verification Connector for Equifax integration will be available to all U.S. Payroll clients by 2025. The connection will not result in any additional expenditures for Workday (WDAY) customers.
