LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - October 19, 2015) - HR Technology Conference and Expo, Booth #1923 -- Ceridian, a global human capital management technology company, and WorkAngel, an employee engagement and retention platform, partnered to offer an industry-first mobile employee engagement and wellness solution.

The singular platform provides an immersive employee engagement experience, consisting of direct access to:

• Gamified financial rewards and social recognition
• Corporate discounts on brand name products for employees and their families
• Wellness resources for mental, social, physical, and financial health including access to counselors and life coaches
• Corporate social network and intranet capability

Jamie True, Founder and CEO of WorkAngel, comments: "Forward-thinking companies understand the commercial benefits of adopting a human-first approach to human resources. With active disengagement estimated to cost the US $450-550 billion per year and poor communication of benefits estimated to cost UK businesses £2.7billion per year, the importance of employee engagement should be the core DNA to success. This agreement signifies the shared vision of WorkAngel and Ceridian to deliver innovation that will empower companies to drive employee engagement and wellness to new levels and reap the associated rewards."

"Ceridian has extensive insight into employee engagement and wellness," says David Ossip, Chairman and CEO of Ceridian. "By combining WorkAngel's social recognition technology and employee benefits and rewards program with Ceridian LifeWorks Employee Assistance Program (EAP) wellness expertise, and Dayforce HCM's powerful platform, employers will be able to change company dynamics, improve productivity, enhance engagement, and influence a positive cultural change from one place."
