Dubai · Abu Dhabi · Tokyo
What the HR digitalisation covers.
Assessment and recommendation of the appropriate HRIS platform — Zoho People, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle HCM, or others — based on company size, budget, and UAE/KSA localisation requirements.
Configuration of the selected HRIS to reflect UAE Labour Law payroll rules, leave entitlements, WPS integration, and organisational structure.
Automation of the monthly payroll cycle within the HRIS — including WPS file generation, payslip distribution, and EOSB accrual tracking.
Digital leave request and approval workflows, attendance tracking integration, and leave balance management aligned to UAE Labour Law entitlements.
Implementation of employee self-service portals — enabling employees to access payslips, apply for leave, and update personal information without HR administrative involvement.
Migration of existing employee data to the new system, data quality validation, and training for HR administrators and managers.
How an engagement works.
Review current HR processes and system requirements. Recommend the appropriate platform with a build-vs-buy rationale.
Configure the system for UAE/KSA payroll rules, organisational structure, leave policies, and WPS requirements.
Migrate existing employee data — contracts, leave balances, payroll history — with quality validation.
User acceptance testing and parallel payroll run to validate accuracy before going live.
System go-live with parallel support. Administrator and manager training sessions.
Markets we cover.
How we differ.
- HRIS configured with global defaults — UAE payroll rules not applied
- WPS integration not addressed at implementation
- Leave entitlements set to global defaults, not UAE Labour Law
- Data migration quality not validated — errors propagate into live system
- Training not calibrated to UAE HR team requirements
- System configuration includes UAE Labour Law payroll rules and WPS integration
- Leave entitlements, EOSB accruals, and allowances configured correctly from day one
- Data migration with quality validation before go-live
- Training by a team that understands both the system and UAE HR requirements
- Post-go-live support from the same team that implemented the system
