  Data migration and parallel payroll

  We help clean and load employee records, salaries and leave balances, then support parallel payroll runs until results match your current figures.

• WPS for UAE entities

  UAE salaries are paid through the Wage Protection System (MOHRE). We confirm how ZenHR supports WPS for your UAE entities and how salary files are reviewed and submitted through your bank or exchange house.

• UAE Labour Law: gratuity and leave

  End-of-service gratuity and leave follow the UAE Labour Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021). We check that your configured rules reflect your contracts and test sample final settlements before go-live.

• GPSSA contributions for UAE nationals

  Pension contributions for UAE national employees go to the General Pension and Social Security Authority (GPSSA). We confirm how these are calculated and reported in your setup.

• Arabic and English

  ZenHR is positioned as available in Arabic and English. We confirm Arabic support for your edition — screens, payslips and letters — and plan bilingual templates. Rules should be confirmed with the relevant authorities or your adviser; we provide the system side, not legal advice.
