One named partner to align payroll with Workday
You have made HR consistent across countries with Workday. Payroll is usually where consistency breaks down: Workday doesn't process pay in every market, and a separate provider in each country leaves you with different processes, uneven compliance, and no single view of payroll cost.
Zalaris closes that gap with one payroll platform beneath your Workday HCM - running accurate, locally compliant pay in every country you operate. You keep Workday as your single source for people data, and your payroll strategy finally keeps pace with your HR.

Workday stays your system of record - Zalaris runs the pay
