Overtime Management Softwarefor UAE, GCC & African Businesses
Businesses across the UAE — from construction contractors in Dubai to hospital networks in Abu Dhabi and retail chains in Sharjah — rely on overtime management software to manage their workforce compliance. With UAE's Ministry of Labour (MOL) requiring accurate attendance records and the Wages Protection System (WPS) mandating verified payroll data, manual tracking is no longer an option for any serious business operating in the Emirates.
In Saudi Arabia, companies in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Mecca face additional compliance requirements through Mudad payroll integration and GOSI social insurance contributions. Our overtime management software solution handles all of these automatically — including Hijri calendar configurations, Eid public holiday rules, and Saudi Labour Law overtime calculations that differ from UAE's framework.
Qatar-based businesses in Doha and Al Rayyan benefit from LMRA-aligned attendance records and WPS-equivalent payroll exports. Bahrain's SIO contribution tracking, Kuwait's MOL requirements, and Oman's OCCI-aligned compliance are all pre-configured in the platform, so companies expanding across the GCC don't need separate systems for each country.
Across Africa — in Nairobi, Lagos, Accra, Dar es Salaam, and Kampala — our overtime management software platform supports multi-currency payroll, local labour law configurations, and offline attendance recording for workers in areas with unreliable internet. African businesses processing payroll in Kenyan Shillings, Nigerian Naira, or Ghanaian Cedi can use the same unified platform as their GCC counterparts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Overtime Management Software from HR teams across UAE and GCC.
What are the UAE Labour Law overtime rates?
Article 67 of the UAE Labour Law mandates 125% of the hourly rate for weekday overtime and 150% for overtime on weekly rest days or public holidays.
Can overtime be capped per employee per month?
Yes. You can set a maximum overtime hour limit per employee, after which the system alerts the manager and blocks further overtime from being logged.
Does the system handle overtime in Saudi Arabia and Qatar differently?
Yes. Saudi and Qatari overtime rules are fully configurable with their respective multipliers, weekly hour limits, and maximum thresholds.
Can supervisors pre-approve overtime before employees work it?
Yes. The pre-approval workflow lets supervisors authorise a specific number of overtime hours in advance — any excess is flagged as unauthorised.
How does the system calculate overtime for night shift workers?
Night shift overtime is calculated from the scheduled shift end time. Cross-midnight shifts are handled correctly with the full shift counted on the start date.
Is Overtime Management Software suitable for small businesses in the UAE?
Yes. The system is designed to scale from small businesses with 10–50 employees all the way to large enterprises with thousands of staff across multiple sites. Pricing and configuration adapt to your team size.
