Payroll Compliance Software

Payroll compliance software for Pakistan

Payroll compliance in Pakistan means getting four things right every month: FBR salary tax under Section 149, EOBI contributions on the notified wage base, provincial social security such as PESSI or SESSI where it applies, and provident fund or other deductions your policy promises. StreamHCM keeps those rules inside the pay run, so each payslip shows the deduction and the payroll record keeps the history you need when a certificate, statement or inspection comes up.

What's Included

What stays inside the pay run

Statutory rules already supported in StreamHCM payroll, applied on the same employee record as the payslip.

FBR salary tax that follows the law's method

Tax is deducted at the time of payment on a projection of the year's salary, adjusted for tax already withheld. StreamHCM applies the current FBR slabs in every run and updates them when rates change. Read the salary tax certificate guide and use the salary tax calculator.

EOBI on the right base

Employee 1% and employer 5% are calculated on the wage base inside payroll. The rates and the current base are written up in the EOBI contribution guide, and one month can be checked in the EOBI calculator.

Provincial social security

PESSI in Punjab and SESSI in Sindh are applied where the establishment is covered. The written guides are PESSI and SESSI.

Provident fund, loans and final settlement

Employer and employee provident fund, loan EMIs and salary advances are deducted in the same run, and final settlement uses the same record. See provident fund in Pakistan and the final settlement guide.

Records you can show

Payroll is locked at finalization, every change is kept in history, and reports are exportable for an auditor or inspector. The module page is payroll management, and the payslip lines are in the salary slip format.
