The company, best known as a manufacturer of explosives and blasting systems used in mining, will deploy Ceridian’s Dayforce software.

“Dayforce will support Orica’s future growth by providing a single system for timely and accurate payroll and helping maintain compliance across multiple geographies at scale,” Ceridian said in a statement.

The project involves personnel from Orica, Deloitte, Brisbane-based consultancy Think Best Practice and Ceridian.

Deloitte has so far participated in the product selection process and would maintain a role in the implementation.

Orica has more than 12,500 staff globally; it appears the company currently runs different HR systems for different geographies.
