(NYSE: WDAY), a leader in enterprise cloud applications for finance and human resources, today announced that If P&C Insurance, the leading property and casualty insurance company in the Nordic region, has selected Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) to replace its multiple HR solutions with a single HR system in the cloud.

Additionally, with Workday’s mobile functionality, on-the-go managers will be able to quickly understand and drill-down into workforce reports and take appropriate actions on their smartphone or tablet when and where the business requires.
