Payroll

The end-to-end process of calculating, approving and disbursing employee compensation, including statutory deductions.

Full definition

Payroll is the recurring process of calculating each employee’s compensation for a pay period and disbursing it, after applying allowances, deductions (income tax, social security / EOBI, provident fund, loans, advances), overtime, bonuses, commissions and arrears. Modern payroll software automates the calculation and integrates with attendance, leave and time-off so changes propagate automatically. Zaffre HRM ships a dual payroll engine that runs local (PKR) and remittance (foreign-currency) salaries in a single pay run.
