§ The result
Dayforce leads Workable on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Dayforce scores 57 and Workable 48 under rubric v1.0 — a 9-point gap inside the ATS-integrated cohort. Dayforce leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Workable is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Dayforce leads is Data Governance Disclosure, Dayforce 63 to Workable 58. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Dayforce 74, Workable 55 — and at a 20% weight it carries 41% of the weighted advantage Dayforce holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +9.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +9 beside that +9.2.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
