Payroll that gets the statutories right

Human resources and payroll for Tanzanian employers, from twenty staff to several thousand.

What it does

HR & Payroll

Tanzanian payroll is not complicated so much as unforgiving: PAYE bands, NSSF or PSSSF, WCF, SDL and HESLB deductions each with their own base and their own return. Getting one base wrong is quiet — it only surfaces at audit, with penalties attached.

Employee master file with contracts, dependants and bank details
PAYE computed on current bands, including benefits in kind
NSSF, PSSSF, WCF, SDL and HESLB deductions and employer contributions
Payslips by email or print, in English or Kiswahili
Staff loans, salary advances and recovery schedules
Overtime, allowances, acting and shift differentials
Leave: annual, sick, maternity and paternity, with balances and approvals
Attendance and biometric clock-in integration
Contract and permit expiry alerts, including work permits for expatriates
Statutory return files ready for submission
Bank payment file for salary transfer

Tanzania

Every Tanzanian statutory, on the right base

PAYE — current bands, with benefits in kind included in the correct base.
NSSF and PSSSF — employee and employer portions, with the monthly return file.
WCF and SDL — computed on the correct definition of gross, which is the most common error we see.
HESLB — loan board deductions applied and reported per employee.
Work permits — expatriate permit and residence expiry alerts ahead of the date.

How we work

Scoped first, built in phases

We look at the process

Not a sales meeting. We sit with the people who do the work now and find where the time and money actually go.

You get a written scope

What will be built, what it costs, how long it takes, and what is explicitly out of scope. In writing, before anything starts.

Built in phases

The part that hurts most is delivered first and put into real use, so value arrives before the whole project is finished.

Trained and supported

Your staff are trained on the real system with real data, and support continues after go-live.

Runs on your own server if you want it to. Internet in Tanzania is not guaranteed. Systems can be installed on a machine at your premises so the business keeps working during an outage, syncing when the connection returns.

Frequently asked

HR & Payroll — questions we get

Does it produce the NSSF and PAYE return files?

Yes, in the formats required for submission, generated from the same payroll run that produced the payslips.

Can it handle casual and daily-rated workers?

Yes, alongside permanent staff, with their own rates and statutory treatment.

What happens when the tax bands change?

Bands and rates are configuration, not code. They are updated when the Finance Act changes them, without touching the rest of the system.

Can employees see their own payslips?

Yes, through a self-service portal, which also removes a large amount of HR admin around leave balances.
