Time & Attendance Software in Kuwait

AITIME is purpose-built for Kuwait — it integrates with ZKTeco and Hikvision biometric terminals across Kuwait City offices and industrial sites, generates MOL Kuwait-ready payroll reports from verified attendance data, tracks PAM work permit compliance in real time, automatically calculates Kuwait Labour Law No. 6 of 2010 overtime rates (125% for regular overtime, 150% for rest days), and enforces Ramadan reduced hour requirements. The bilingual Arabic and English cloud dashboard is designed for Kuwait HR teams managing diverse workforces across oil and gas, financial services, retail, and telecommunications.

Under Kuwait Labour Law No. 6 of 2010, overtime is paid at 125% (basic hourly wage plus 25% premium) for hours worked beyond the standard 8-hour working day or 48-hour working week. For work performed on an employee's designated rest day (typically Friday), the rate rises to 150% (basic wage plus 50% premium). Work on official Kuwaiti public holidays — including National Day (February 25), Liberation Day (February 26), and religious holidays — is also compensated at 150% of the basic hourly rate. AITIME applies these rates automatically based on verified shift data from biometric terminals and GPS check-ins, ensuring accurate overtime calculations for KPC contractors, Alshaya Group retail staff, and Kuwait City corporate employees.

Most large Kuwait companies — including KPC subsidiaries, NBK branches, Zain telecom, and Alshaya Group retail operations — use biometric terminals (fingerprint or face recognition) at entry and exit points combined with cloud-based attendance management software. AITIME integrates with ZKTeco, Hikvision, and Dahua terminals across Kuwait City offices, Ahmadi oil field facilities, Shuwaikh Industrial Area, and retail locations from The Avenues to Marina Mall. The AITIME cloud dashboard gives Kuwait HR managers real-time visibility of who is present, who is late, and who is absent across all locations simultaneously — with MOL Kuwait-ready payroll reports generated automatically each pay cycle.

Under Kuwait Labour Law No. 6 of 2010, the standard working hours are 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week. During the holy month of Ramadan, working hours are reduced to 6 hours per day and 36 hours per week for Muslim employees. The weekly rest day is Friday (or an alternative day by agreement for continuous operations). Kuwait public holidays include National Day (February 25), Liberation Day (February 26), New Year's Day, Islamic New Year, Prophet's Birthday, Isra and Mi'raj, Eid Al Fitr (3 days), and Eid Al Adha (3 days) — all automatically loaded in AITIME's Kuwait public holiday calendar. Annual leave is 30 working days per year under Kuwait Labour Law.

Alshaya Group operates one of the largest retail workforces in Kuwait, managing hundreds of stores across dozens of shopping malls — from The Avenues and 360 Mall to Marina Mall and Al Kout. Managing split shifts, part-time staff, weekend roster variations, and peak-season scheduling across so many locations requires a cloud-based attendance system with real-time multi-site visibility. AITIME's shift scheduling engine handles all of this: store-level biometric terminals capture punch times, GPS geofencing verifies staff are in-store, and the Kuwait City cloud dashboard shows HR managers a live attendance overview across every Alshaya brand and location. PAM work permit tracking ensures Alshaya's large expatriate retail workforce remains compliant at all times.
