Comment était votre journée au travail?
"était" implies that the work day is over.
You could say:
Comment se passe ta journée (au boulot/ au travail) ?
If you don't mention "au boulot/au travail", that's implicit in my opinion.
I think this is an american tradition. One can translate it but no french speaker would talk like that.
I wouldn't refer to work explicitly, but ask, "How is it going?" -- Comment ça va ? -- or, Ça va bien ? -- or just, Ça va ?
If I wanted to ask for a detailed report about work, maybe, Elle était comment, votre journée au travail ?
Ça s'est bien passé, ta journée au boulot ? invites a one word answer (and is familiar, using ta instead of votre).
Note that était is past tense ("was"), which doesn't match the title of the question ("is going", present tense).
