MINNEAPOLIS and LONDON, July 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Dayforce, Inc. (NYSE: DAY; TSX: DAY), a global human capital management (HCM) leader that makes work life better, today announced that WHSmith, a leading global retailer for news, books, and convenience, has expanded its use of the Dayforce platform. WHSmith has implemented HR, Managed Pay, Advanced Scheduling, Performance Management, Succession Planning, and Analytics in the UK, and will add Compensation, Recruiting, and Onboarding later this year. WHSmith initially selected Dayforce for Time and Attendance in 2017.

Backed by a single data architecture, Dayforce is designed to deliver simplicity at scale – while helping organisations optimise the potential of the boundless workforce. With Dayforce, WHSmith will drive efficiencies and enhanced accuracy by consolidating its people management and payroll systems in more than 500 stores across the UK.
