Shareholder Proposals

Item 6
S
Disclose employee retention rates by demographic category.

Request that Workday disclose employee retention (or separation) rates broken down by demographic categories the company is required to track (for example veteran status, age, gender, race, disability). The proponent argues such disclosure would help investors evaluate talent retention, brand and operational risks, and would align Workday’s public reporting with practices at many peers. The company opposition states it already provides extensive human capital information, uses internal tools to manage retention, and that segmented retention metrics may be misleading without context and could incentivize optimization of metrics rather than a skills-based approach.

Item 7
G
Disclose shareholder voting results by share class (one-vote vs multi-vote).

Request that Workday report the results of shareholder votes separately for each share class (Class A one-vote shares and Class B multi-vote shares), beginning with the 2026 annual meeting. The proponent argues that because a small group holds most multi-vote shares, aggregate vote tallies can mask whether unaffiliated (one-vote) shareholders support measures. The proposal cites investor demand and best-practice recommendations for class-by-class reporting to improve transparency on independent shareholder sentiment.
