The essentials

Getting payroll wrong costs more than time

In the UAE, salaries for most mainland companies must be paid through the Wages Protection System (WPS).

That means a correctly formatted SIF file, submitted on time, with the right amounts — or you risk fines and labour-file consequences. On top of that there's gratuity, leave, additions and deductions to get right, and payslips your staff actually understand. We take the whole thing off your desk: you approve the numbers, we handle the rest, and everyone gets paid accurately on the date you set.

Common questions

UAE payroll, answered

What is WPS and does it apply to my company?

The Wages Protection System is the UAE's electronic salary-transfer system that ensures employees are paid in full and on time. Most mainland companies registered with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation are required to pay salaries through it. We generate the compliant SIF file for each run.

How is end-of-service gratuity calculated?

Gratuity for unlimited-term arrangements is based on the employee's basic salary and length of service under the UAE Labour Law, with the entitlement building up the longer someone stays. We calculate it correctly for each leaver and accrue for it through the year so it's never a shock.

Can you handle payroll for just a few employees?

Yes. We run payroll for businesses of every size, from a handful of staff to several hundred. The process and the compliance requirements are the same — we simply scale to fit.

What do you need from me each month?

Just the changes: any new hires or leavers, overtime, bonuses, deductions or unpaid leave. If nothing has changed, payroll runs on the same figures as last month. We send a short checklist so it takes you minutes.

Is our salary information kept confidential?

Completely. Payroll is handled by a named contact under strict confidentiality, and access to salary data is limited to the people who genuinely need it. Discretion is part of the service.
