Identify and mitigate risk across Workday with Kainos

Ensure your Workday system is safe, compliant, and ready for internal and external audits, wherever your business is based

Our Workday auditing and compliance experts can help you prepare, evidence, and optimise Workday when it’s time for internal and external audits, freeing up both staff and SMEs to focus on what they do best while mitigating the risk of fraud or inappropriate activity.
