Item 1.    Security and Issuer.

This amendment No. 8 (this ‘‘Amendment’’) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D (the ‘‘Original Schedule 13D’’), filed on January 18, 2007 by Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (‘‘Pershing Square’’), PS Management GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Pershing Square GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and William A. Ackman, a citizen of the United States of America (collectively, the ‘‘Reporting Persons’’), the amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on January 23, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, the amendment No. 2 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on February 6, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, the amendment No. 3 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on February 28, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, the amendment No. 4 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on March 1, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, the amendment No. 5 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on May 2, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, the amendment No. 6 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on May 14, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, and the amendment No. 7 to the Original Schedule 13D, filed on June 13, 2007 by the Reporting Persons, relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the ‘‘Common Stock’’), of Ceridian Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the ‘‘Issuer’’). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 3311 East Old Shakopee Road, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55425. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby supplemented as follows:

On July 5, 2007, representatives of the Reporting Persons notified the Issuer that because a member of the incumbent Board of the Issuer has chosen not to stand for reelection at the Issuer’s upcoming 2007 Annual Meeting and the Issuer has consequently reduced the size of its Board up for election at the 2007 Annual Meeting, the investment funds affiliated with the Reporting Persons (the ‘‘Stockholders’’) did not intend to nominate Professor Michael E. Porter unless the Issuer increased the number of seats to be filled. The Stockholders expect, however, that if their nominees are elected they will increase the board size by one and fill the vacancy created with Professor Porter.
