HRX360 is HR and payroll software built for UAE construction and contracting companies. It tracks worker attendance across multiple sites using biometric devices and geo-tagged mobile clock-in, runs monthly payroll with overtime and variable pay, generates WPS-ready SIF files, sends automatic visa and labour card expiry reminders, and gives owners and finance teams headcount and payroll cost visibility per company, branch and cost centre — with transparent per-employee pricing.
A construction company doesn't have an attendance problem. It has a visibility problem.
Your workforce is spread across sites, your office is somewhere else, and payroll still has to be exact on the same date every month. Timesheets arrive late from site supervisors — on paper, in WhatsApp photos, in half-filled Excel sheets. Someone in the office retypes them, overtime gets disputed, and WPS preparation becomes a monthly scramble.
Meanwhile, hundreds of visas, labour cards, Emirates IDs and passports expire on different dates. Miss one, and a worker can't legally be on site.
When the workforce is large and scattered, spreadsheets stop being cheap. They become the most expensive system you run.
One platform for the office and every site
Site attendance you can trust
Biometric and RFID devices (ZKTeco, Hikvision) at fixed sites and camps, plus geo-tagged mobile clock-in with photo verification for workers at temporary or remote locations. Attendance flows straight into payroll — no retyping.
Shifts and overtime, captured at source
Configure shifts per site and capture actual in/out times. Normal and holiday overtime is calculated in attendance reports, ready to apply to the pay run through variable pay — backed by records instead of disputes.
Labour-heavy payroll, structured
Salary components, deductions, variable pay and payslips in a controlled workflow (Draft → Completed → Locked) so payroll is reviewed before it's final — whether you pay 50 workers or 500.
WPS/SIF generation
Produce a WPS-ready SIF file directly from locked payroll. No manual file building, no last-minute formatting stress before the bank cut-off.
Visa & document expiry reminders
Automatic alerts for visas, labour cards, Emirates IDs, passports and certificates across the whole workforce, so renewals start early — not after a worker is stopped at the gate.
Worker records in one place
Complete profiles for every worker and staff member: personal details, contracts, documents, job history, bank details — secure, searchable, exportable.
Employee self-service
Office staff and supervisors check payslips, leave balances and attendance from a mobile-ready portal. Workers without smartphones are fully covered by device-based attendance — ESS is optional per employee.
End-of-service gratuity
Calculate UAE gratuity to the day when a worker's contract ends, with the EOSB picture visible before the final settlement, not after.
Reports & dashboards
Headcount, attendance, overtime, leave and payroll cost across sites and companies, exportable to Excel in one click.
Attendance that works the way construction works
A head office system that assumes everyone walks past one fingerprint reader doesn't survive contact with a construction company. HRX360 doesn't assume that.
Fixed sites & camps
Connect biometric/RFID devices (ZKTeco, Hikvision) at each site. Punches sync to one central attendance record per worker.
Temporary & remote sites
Supervisors and mobile workers clock in from a phone with GPS location and photo verification — you see where and when, not just a number on a sheet.
One consolidated view
Office staff and site workforce in a single attendance register, by site, by day, by shift — with late, absent and overtime flags before payroll, not after.
From timesheets to WPS file — one controlled flow
The most expensive payroll errors in construction happen in the handoffs: site to office, Excel to bank file. HRX360 removes the handoffs. Attendance and overtime flow into payroll, payroll runs through a Draft → Completed → Locked workflow with review built in, and the WPS-ready SIF file is generated from the locked run. Salary reconciliation catches month-on-month anomalies — a doubled overtime entry, a missing deduction — before the money moves.
Payroll cost you can actually see
Finance doesn't just need payroll to run — it needs to know what labour costs, where. HRX360 gives finance teams payroll cost reporting per company and branch, a cost-centre dimensioned GL/journal voucher export so labour cost lands against the right site in your accounting system, gratuity/EOSB accrual visibility for provisioning, and Excel exports that drop into the month-end pack.
Many sites. Many companies. One system.
Contracting groups rarely run as one legal entity. HRX360 supports multiple companies and branches under one account — each with its own employees, devices, payroll and WPS files — and owners switch between them from a single login instead of separate systems and spreadsheets per license. Role-based access keeps site supervisors, HR, finance and management each seeing exactly what they should.

Construction HR & payroll — your questions answered
Q:What is the best HR and payroll software for construction companies in the UAE?
The best fit for UAE contractors is software that handles site-based attendance, labour-heavy payroll and WPS/SIF in one system. HRX360 is built for this: biometric and mobile site attendance, structured payroll with overtime, WPS-ready SIF generation, document expiry alerts and multi-company support, from AED 12 per employee per month.
Q:How does attendance work for workers spread across sites?
Fixed sites use biometric/RFID devices (ZKTeco, Hikvision). Temporary or remote locations use geo-tagged mobile clock-in with photo verification by a supervisor or the worker. Everything lands in one central attendance register that feeds payroll.
Q:Do workers need smartphones?
No. Device-based attendance covers workers without phones. Employee self-service is optional per employee — typically office staff and supervisors use it.
Q:Can HRX360 generate the SIF file for WPS?
Yes. The WPS-ready SIF file is generated directly from locked payroll, so the file always matches the approved pay run.
Q:Can it handle multiple companies or trade licenses?
Yes. Multi-company and multi-branch support is built in — each entity runs its own employees, payroll and WPS files, all managed from one account and one login.
Q:How long does setup take?
Most companies are live in about 30 minutes for core setup; device integration is configured with our UAE support team.
Q:How much does it cost?
From AED 12 per employee per month. See the pricing page for plans.
