Workday (NASDAQ: WDAY) released global research on Jan 14, 2026 showing AI saves employees time but much value is lost to rework. Key findings: ~40% of AI time savings are consumed by fixing low-quality output, 85% of employees report saving 1–7 hours/week with AI, and only 14% consistently see clear net benefits. The study of 3,200 full-time employees at $100M+ firms finds gaps in training and role redesign: 89% of organizations have updated fewer than half of roles for AI, and leaders prioritize training (66%) though only 37% of high-rework employees receive it.
