Zaffre HRM is an all-in-one HR and operations software platform by Zaffre Tech. It unifies HR, payroll, attendance, leave, remote-work monitoring, procurement, petty cash, project management, helpdesk and secure client communication in one connected system. Its standout feature is a dual payroll engine that runs local (PKR) and remittance (foreign currency) salaries in a single payroll run.

Who is Zaffre HRM for?

Small businesses, startups and growing companies of 5 to a few hundred employees — particularly those that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected SaaS tools. Strong fit for Pakistan-based companies and any team paying employees in multiple currencies.

What makes Zaffre HRM different from other HR and HCM platforms?

Most HR platforms cover HR and payroll well but leave operations (procurement, petty cash, projects, helpdesk, remote monitoring, client communication) to other tools. Zaffre HRM includes those natively and links every module together — a leave approval updates attendance and payroll, an employee exit triggers asset recovery and final settlement, and a client onboarding flows into billing. It also has a market-unique dual payroll engine.

Does Zaffre HRM support payroll in multiple currencies?

Yes. The dual payroll engine runs local-currency (PKR) salaries and remittance-currency (foreign) salaries together in a single payroll cycle — this is the platform's signature feature and is rare in the market.

Does Zaffre HRM include remote employee monitoring?

Yes, natively. A Tauri-based desktop agent captures login/logout, active hours, application and website usage, and periodic screenshots, and powers productivity-based attendance. It is not a third-party add-on.

Does Zaffre HRM have a mobile app?

Yes — a companion mobile app (Expo / React Native) for attendance, leave, payslips, chat and approvals, with real-time push notifications via FCM.

How is Zaffre HRM priced?

Transparent per-employee, per-module monthly pricing. Modules can be turned on or off per company. Designed to be cheaper in aggregate than the 6+ tools it replaces.

Where is Zaffre HRM based?

Zaffre Tech, the company behind Zaffre HRM, is headquartered in Pakistan and serves customers globally — with strong adoption in Pakistan, UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Best HR Software in Lahore 2026 — Local Buyer Guide

Lahore's economy is just as diverse as Karachi's — large textile manufacturing in Multan Road and Sundar, a deep IT services corridor through Johar Town and Arfa Tower, retail and hospitality across the city, and major education and healthcare institutions. The best HR software for Lahore in 2026 needs to handle all of these patterns, with Punjab-specific compliance defaults baked in (PESSI as the provincial social security scheme).

Punjab-specific compliance — what changes from federal

PESSI (Punjab Employees Social Security Institution)

If you operate in Lahore (or anywhere in Punjab) with 5+ employees, you typically need PESSI registration in addition to federal EOBI. PESSI is employer-only contribution, currently a percentage of insurable wage. Your payroll software must handle PESSI alongside EOBI without you running two systems.

Punjab minimum wage

Set by the Punjab government, revised periodically (typically each fiscal year). 2026 rate must be verified against the current Punjab notification before processing payroll.

Punjab Shops and Establishments Ordinance

Working hours, weekly off, leave entitlements for shop and commercial establishment employees in Punjab are governed by this ordinance — slightly different rules from the Factories Act used for industrial workers.

What Lahore businesses need from HR software

1. PESSI + EOBI together

Both contributions on the same payroll cycle. Per-employee PI numbers (EOBI) and SS numbers (PESSI). Monthly returns auto-exportable.

2. Shift planning for manufacturing

Textile, FMCG and engineering manufacturers around Sundar and Multan Road run multi-shift. Real shift planning (rotation, swap, premium) is mandatory.

3. Remote / hybrid for IT

The Johar Town / Arfa Tower IT corridor runs hybrid teams almost universally. Desktop monitoring, productivity-based attendance, and mobile check-in for the hybrid days are all needed.

4. Multi-location for retail / hospitality

Retail chains across Lahore (Liberty, MM Alam, DHA, Gulberg, Iqbal Town) need per-store attendance, per-store payroll, consolidated reports. Mobile attendance with geo-fence per store is the modern setup.

5. Dual currency for export-sector + IT

Both Lahore's textile exports and its IT services have remittance-paid staff. Dual payroll in one cycle is the time-saver.

Sector-specific Lahore patterns

Textile manufacturing

Multi-shift attendance, tiered overtime (working / off / gazetted), labour-heavy attendance flows, asset tracking for machinery and PPE, raw-material procurement. Manufacturing HRM details.

IT services (Johar Town / Arfa Tower / DHA)

See: HR software for IT services Pakistan.

Retail chains

Per-store rosters, mobile check-in with geo-fence, high-turnover onboarding, petty cash per store.

Education (universities, schools, training)

Academic-calendar leave, faculty contracts and renewals, multi-campus management, asset issuance to teachers.

Healthcare (hospitals, clinics)

24/7 duty roster, on-call tracking, license + credential tracking, contactless face attendance.

What to avoid in Lahore-focused HR software

Tools that only support federal EOBI but not PESSI — you will end up running PESSI manually
Software not aware of Punjab-specific minimum wage updates
Single-shift attendance only — useless for manufacturing
No mobile / no remote support — kills IT services use case

Zaffre HRM Lahore fit

Zaffre HRM for Lahore businesses ships with PESSI + EOBI both pre-configured, Punjab minimum wage tracking, shift planning, multi-location support, dual payroll, face recognition attendance, and the full operations suite (procurement, petty cash, projects, helpdesk).
