| Workday | Legacy | Workday Benefits | Benefits Administration | HCM | n/a | 2021 | 2021 |
In 2021 Northern Trust implemented Workday Benefits as a centralized Benefits Administration capability to align benefits, retirement, and total rewards engineering with the firm’s global people strategy. The implementation was positioned to support total reward delivery, the employee value proposition, and governance needs tied to executive compensation and board level oversight, reflecting specialties in global expansion and management of virtual teams.
Workday Benefits was configured to cover core benefits administration workflows including eligibility and enrollment management, benefits lifecycle events, open enrollment automation, retirement and pension administration, and wellness program enrollment. Configuration emphasized role based access, customization for executive and director compensation rules, and instrumentation of moments that matter to improve benefits orchestration across employee segments.
The solution was integrated with other Workday modules to maintain a single source of workforce data, with HR transactions and compensation data flowing into benefits eligibility and enrollment processes. Integrations and data feeds supported internal total rewards analytics and governance processes while enabling consistent policy application across international operations and shared services.
Governance and process changes accompanied the rollout to centralize benefits policy, standardize approval workflows, and formalize stewardship for global benefits programs. Operational ownership aligned benefits administration with total rewards, retirement, and compensation teams to support ongoing program design and regulatory controls without external system partner references.
