Why This is Important

Payroll is one of the most critical and sensitive business functions. Errors in payroll can lead to employee dissatisfaction, legal issues, and penalties from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). The UAE's Wage Protection System (WPS) mandates that all employees must be paid through approved channels, with strict penalties for non-compliance including fines up to AED 5,000 per employee and potential work permit suspensions. Proper payroll management ensures employee satisfaction, legal compliance, and accurate financial records. Outsourcing payroll eliminates the risk of errors, saves time, and ensures you never miss a deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1.What is WPS and why is it mandatory?

The Wage Protection System (WPS) is a UAE government initiative to ensure timely and full payment of wages to employees. All UAE employers must pay salaries through WPS-approved channels (banks or exchange houses). Non-compliance can result in fines, work permit restrictions, and inability to hire new employees.

Q2.How is gratuity calculated in the UAE?

For employees with unlimited contracts: 21 days' basic salary per year for the first 5 years, then 30 days' salary per year thereafter. For limited contracts: similar calculation based on actual service. Gratuity is capped at 2 years' salary. We handle all gratuity calculations automatically.

Q3.Can you integrate with our attendance system?

Yes, we can integrate with most attendance and time-tracking systems including biometric devices, cloud-based systems, and manual timesheets. This ensures seamless data flow from attendance to payroll processing.

Q4.What information do you need to process payroll?

We need employee master data (names, salaries, bank details, visa information), monthly attendance records, leave applications, any salary changes, new joiners, and resignations. We can set up automated data feeds to minimize manual work.

Q5.How quickly can you process payroll each month?

Once we receive all required information, we typically process payroll within 2-3 business days. We recommend providing data by the 25th of each month for month-end salary payments. We can also accommodate urgent processing if needed.
