How does construction payroll software handle daily wage workers vs monthly staff?

HajariBook supports both daily wage workers (masons, helpers, bar benders, carpenters) and monthly salaried staff (site supervisors, project engineers). You can also set piece-rate rates for specific trades. The software automatically applies the right pay formula based on recorded attendance.

How does the app manage worker advances (kharchi) and deductions?

Whenever a contractor or supervisor gives mid-week cash advances (kharchi) to a worker, it is recorded in HajariBook with date and amount. When the weekly or monthly wage cycle is settled, all advances are automatically deducted from the gross wage.

Can I calculate custom overtime hours and overtime multipliers?

Yes. Contractors can define standard daily working hours (e.g. 8 hours) and configure overtime pay either as an hourly rate, a fixed overtime rate, or a custom multiplier based on agreement.

Can I share wage slips and payment summaries directly via WhatsApp?

Yes. HajariBook generates clear, formatted PDF salary slips and wage summaries that can be shared in one click via WhatsApp directly with individual workers or client billing departments.
