Dayforce will optimize HR and people processes
for the Minnesota-based NBA franchise
Ceridian HCM Holding Inc. (NYSE: CDAY; TSX: CDAY), a global
human capital management (HCM) technology company, today announced
that the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx organization has selected
Dayforce, Ceridian’s flagship cloud software, to help streamline
their people processes, manage the employee lifecycle, and maintain
compliance. Ceridian will be the HCM service provider for all three
teams under the Timberwolves franchise: NBA Minnesota Timberwolves,
WNBA Minnesota Lynx, and G League Team Iowa Wolves.
“Sports teams are companies in constant motion, and we believe
Dayforce will be a game-changer for the Minnesota Timberwolves and
Lynx organization off the court. With complex personnel challenges
unique to their industry, Dayforce will help the franchise save
time and work smarter, empowering its entire workforce in the
process,” said Chris Armstrong, Chief Operating Officer, Ceridian.
“We are delighted to expand our sports portfolio as we welcome the
Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx organization to the Ceridian
family.”
As an organization, the Minnesota Timberwolves face complex
regulatory requirements, including multi-state taxation, as the
players and coaches work in numerous states during the NBA and WNBA
season. The challenges of such a workforce drove them to look for a
partner to help them gain control over compliance and get a
complete picture of their data to make smarter people
decisions.
“With a diverse workforce spanning three professional sports
teams, our organization requires an HCM solution and support team
that is agile, flexible, and responsive to our HR needs,” said
Sianneh Mulbah, Chief People Officer, Minnesota Timberwolves and
Lynx. “Throughout the NBA and WNBA seasons, we have full-time and
part-time employees at home and on the road with us. A single
solution like Dayforce will ensure we remain compliant, while
making work life easier for our employees and players. We are
thrilled to work with our hometown Minneapolis-based partners at
Ceridian on a holistic partnership that will fulfill many of our
internal needs.”
Previously using disparate systems, the Minnesota Timberwolves
and Lynx organization valued Dayforce’s single, cloud platform and
Ceridian’s proven experience working with professional sports
organizations, including the Denver Broncos, Houston Texans, and
Vegas Golden Knights. The organization plans to implement the full
Dayforce suite, including HR, Payroll, Benefits, Talent Management,
and Workforce Management.
“With Ceridian being headquartered in Minneapolis, we feel
immense pride in partnering with the Minnesota Timberwolves and
Lynx. They are an acclaimed local sports organization and like
Ceridian, they understand the importance of putting people first,”
said Lisa Sterling, Chief People and Culture Officer, Ceridian.
“This is yet another step forward in their journey to transform
their workplace culture for the better and we are honored to
partner with them.”
Ceridian and the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx teams
celebrated their partnership at the August 9th WNBA Minnesota Lynx
home game in Minneapolis.
