Limits

Tenant-scoped throttling (see gated Workday Community documentation) tenant
varies
see https://community.workday.com/api
Workday enforces tenant-level throttling and per-integration concurrency caps for time- tracking and scheduling endpoints; specific values are not publicly published.

Policies

Documentation gating
Workday rate-limit policy is published only on community.workday.com, which requires a customer login. No public per-second or per-minute numbers are available.
Backoff
Standard guidance is exponential backoff with jitter on HTTP 503 and documented Workday SOAP throttling faults.
Batch operations
Time-block and clock-event endpoints expose batch variants; using them is the primary mitigation for tenant-level throttling.
