HR and payroll compliance in Qatar

Orvo HCM keeps each country's rules out of its core, in a country pack. Here is what works for companies in Qatar today, and what a pack for Qatar is designed to cover.

Available today in Qatar

  • Employee records for every company

    One record per person from hire to exit, for each company you run in Qatar and abroad, each company with its own base currency, such as QAR.

  • Every site you run

    Each establishment keeps its address and time zone, so rules that depend on where people work can follow the site, not the head office.

  • Biometric attendance

    ZKTeco fingerprint and face devices send punches to the cloud, or through an on-site gateway that holds them until they are safely received.

  • Leave and approvals

    Leave types, balances, and requests on web and mobile, approved by the right people in order, with every decision kept on record.

What a country pack for Qatar is designed to cover

Payroll for Qatar depends on its country pack. Gulf packs follow the Pakistan pack, and each is designed to cover:

  • Wage Protection System

    Salary files for Qatar's Wage Protection System, with each submission tracked.

  • End-of-service gratuity

    Gratuity accrued each month and paid on exit, as Qatar's labour law sets it.

  • Social insurance for nationals

    Contributions to the General Retirement and Social Insurance Authority for each Qatari employee.

  • Qatarization

    Your standing against the Qatarization targets that apply to your company, with alerts before a threshold.

  • Residence permits

    Each foreign employee's residence permit, with expiry dates tracked.

  • Working time and leave rules

    Annual leave, sick leave, and working hours as Qatar's labour law sets them, as starting policies you can make more generous.

Every rate, ceiling, and threshold will be entered from official sources and checked by payroll advisers before it is used. None will be guessed.
