PAYROLL & WPS
Payroll that pays correctly — and files to WPS first time
Every month, somewhere in the UAE, a payroll officer finds out at 4 pm that the bank rejected the SIF file over one missing IBAN. eHRMS ends that ritual: gross-to-net calculated to UAE rules, validated before generation, and one SIF per trade licence in the Central Bank format.
- WPS SIF · CBUAE format
- Min. Res. 598/2022
- GPSSA & DEWS
- OT 1.25× / 1.5×
- AED 6,000 guardrail
HOW A MONTH CLOSES
Four steps from attendance to accepted SIF
-
Attendance flows in on its own
Punches from biometrics, GPS and web land in one register. Overtime is calculated at 1.25× on normal days and 1.5× on rest days and holidays — the engine checks each date against the entity's holiday calendar, so nobody chooses multipliers by memory.
-
The engine computes gross-to-net
Structures plus what the month actually brought: overtime, unpaid days, leave without pay, loan instalments, GPSSA for nationals, DEWS for DIFC staff. Every line traceable.
-
Review, approve, notify
Payroll approval pushes exports to finance and tells employees their payslip is ready — on the app, not at the printer.
-
Generate the SIF and submit
One click builds the Salary Information File in CBUAE format — EDR records plus the salary control record with your employer MOL ID and bank routing. Validation names any employee missing an IBAN or MOL ID first. Track the submission to Accepted.

THE RULES, CODED IN
What the payroll engine already knows
| Rule | How eHRMS applies it |
|---|---|
| Overtime | 1.25× basic on normal days; 1.5× on rest days and public holidays; statutory caps enforced (2 hours/day) |
| Calendar basis | 30-day month for salary, leave and settlement calculations |
| WPS | SIF generated in Central Bank format per Ministerial Resolution 598/2022, validated before submission |
| Pensions & savings | GPSSA for UAE/GCC nationals; DEWS for DIFC staff at 5.83%/8.33% by tenure |
| Minimum wage guardrail | AED 6,000 alert threshold for UAE nationals |
| Final settlement | Payable within 14 days of exit (Article 53) — deadline chased by a scheduled job |
Statutory values live in one reviewable configuration, each referenced to its legal article. Your labour counsel reviews it once; every calculation follows it. The UAE has no personal income tax — so eHRMS spends its energy where UAE payroll actually gets hard: WPS, allowances and end-of-service.
THE COST OF WAITING
What a fragile payroll process actually costs
every time a SIF file bounces
The rejection usually surfaces after the bank's cut-off, so the fix costs you a day and your employees a weekend of worry.
put work permits at risk
Persistent WPS non-compliance is exactly what holds up new permit applications for the whole establishment.
spent checking someone else's arithmetic
Overtime multipliers, unpaid days, loan instalments — re-checked by hand every cycle because nobody trusts the sheet.
follows you to the exit
Gratuity and leave encashment both compute from it, so a quiet salary-structure error becomes an expensive settlement dispute years later.
