Description
Calamari is a web-based and mobile solution for attendance and leave management. The platform is broken into two modules so that businesses only pay what they use. Clock-in/Clock-out uses QR scanning and Bluetooth devices with the mobile app to track work hours. It also sends alerts about late arrivals, unexpected absents, and other abuses. The Leave Management module can create absence calendars for employees, and automate absence allowances based on company policy.
It integrates with Slack and GSuite, JIRA and Office365.
Description
WatheeqaHR gives Gulf HR teams one place to review attendance and prepare payroll, instead of reconciling separate spreadsheets every month. It supports Arabic and English for companies and company groups in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman.
Keep each company’s employees, payroll records and permissions separate while using a consolidated company overview. Import original attendance exports in Excel or CSV and investigate late arrivals, overtime and missing punches before approving payroll. Attendance tracking is optional.
The platform also covers leave requests and balances, employee document expiry dates, advances and payslips. Employees use a browser portal to request leave and view their own records. An optional Windows connector is available for compatible attendance devices; file import remains an alternative.
For UAE companies, WatheeqaHR generates WPS SIF files for the employer to submit through a bank or exchange house. The service does not transfer salaries or submit statutory filings. Employers and accountants should review country calculations. A free Attendance Analyzer works without signup, and the full platform has a 14 day trial.
