Overview

What it solves

Employee data lives in spreadsheets and email threads, so nobody trusts which salary, manager or national ID is current.

Why it helps
  • One record per person that leave, attendance, payroll and insurance all read from.
  • Arabic and English names side by side, national ID and IBAN stored encrypted.
  • Bulk import from Excel with row-by-row review before anything is saved.
  • Leaving is handled end to end: the termination takes effect after the last working day, access ends, and the leaver’s team, approvals and open work are handed over.

Workflows

Employee lifecycle

Employee lifecycle: steps in text
  1. Start / end
    • added / hired probation
    • added active
  2. probation
    • probation confirmed active
    • terminate scheduled
  3. active
    • inactive
    • terminate (reason + last working day) scheduled
  4. inactive
    • reactivated active
    • terminate scheduled
  5. scheduled
    • after the last working day (access ends, handover) terminated
    • rehire cancels it active
  6. terminated
    • rehire (termination reversed) active
  • An employee is Active, On probation, Inactive or Terminated.
  • Terminating records a reason and a last working day. The employee keeps working and signing in until the end of that day; then they are marked Terminated, their access ends and their team and open approvals are handed over.
  • Reactivating a former employee, or one whose termination has not taken effect yet, restores things as they were. Hire date and leave balances are kept for HR to adjust.
