CERIDIAN CORPORATION
Termination of Registration Statements.
Ceridian Corporation ("Ceridian"), formerly known as Control
Data Corporation, established its Personal Investment Plan (the
<PAGE>
"Plan") in 1983. Because the Plan is a "qualified plan" under
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and subject to tax
deferral treatment under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue
Code, it provides employees of Ceridian and its subsidiaries with
the opportunity to save part of their income on a pre-tax basis
and to have those savings accumulate in tax-deferred investment
funds until termination of active employment. Because one of the
investment funds available under the Plan invests in shares of
Ceridian's common stock, Ceridian registered, under the
Securities Act of 1933, a total of 1,000,000 shares of its common
stock for issuance under the Plan on a series of three
Registration Statements on Form S-8, File Numbers 2-81865, 2-
93345 and 33-15920, the latest of which was filed with the
Securities Exchange Commission (the "Commission") in July 1987.
Because all of the 1,000,000 shares of Ceridian common stock
registered on these three Registration Statements that could be
offered and sold under the Plan has been sold, these three
Registration Statements can be terminated. As a result, Ceridian
hereby files this Post-Effective Amendment to terminate its Form
S-8 Registration Statement File Number 2-81865, its Form S-8
Registration Statement File Number 2-93345, and its Form S-8
Registration Statement File Number 33-15920. Shares of Ceridian
common stock (and Plan interests) that may currently be offered
and sold under the Plan have been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933 on a Registration Statement on Form S-8, File No. 33-
56833, filed with the Commission on December 13, 1994. This
Registration Statement remains effective.
