Payroll, Compliance & Governance

Overview

Payroll is the one HR process where a plausible answer is not good enough. This module computes gross-to-net deterministically (payroll math is code, not a model) and checks every run against the regulations of your jurisdictions, citing them. No payment executes without named human approval; that gate is hard-coded and cannot be bypassed.

What it does

• Deterministic calculation

  Gross pay, deductions, and net pay computed by deterministic rules: the same inputs always produce the same run.

• Jurisdiction-aware compliance

  Runs validated against the regulations that actually apply, with the citation shown, not a generic checklist.

• GCC-native payroll

  KSA GOSI and WPS, UAE MOHRE and EOSB, and Egypt social insurance and tax handled as first-class rails, not localizations.

• Payslips and statutory reports

  Payslips, statutory filings, and the payroll summary generated after approval, with payment references tracked to confirmation.

How a run works

Every module runs the same contract: the system drafts, a named human approves, and the approved artifact keeps its history.

1. 1Draft

   The module pulls approved changes from the employee lifecycle, runs validation checks, and calculates the full gross-to-net summary.

2. 2Human gate

   The run halts at the compliance gate: payment requires named human approval (HR Director and Finance Director), and the gate is hard-coded into the system; it cannot be bypassed.

3. 3Approved artifact

   The confirmed run executes with a payment reference; payslips and statutory reports are issued, and the settlement is confirmed back to the employee record.

Proof

• HARD-CODED GATE

  Human approval before any payment is a structural property of the system, not a setting. No configuration removes it.

• GOSI · WPS · MOHRE · EOSB

  GCC payroll obligations are native: KSA GOSI and WPS files, UAE MOHRE and end-of-service benefits, Egypt social insurance and tax.

• HASH-CHAINED AUDIT

  Every run, check, and approval lands in a hash-chained audit trail: payroll history cannot be quietly edited.
