FAQ

Common questions

Can't find what you need? Talk to our team →

Does PeopleDesk handle Indian labour law compliance?

Yes. PF, ESI, professional tax, TDS, gratuity, and bonus calculations are built in per Central and applicable State rules. The system flags computation anomalies before payroll is finalised, not after.

Which biometric devices does it support?

PeopleDesk integrates with all major biometric brands — ZKTeco, eSSL, Mantra, Suprema, and RFID card systems. If you already have devices installed, we map them during onboarding.

Can we manage contract and daily-wage workers separately?

Yes. PeopleDesk supports multiple employment types — permanent, contract, fixed-term, and daily wage — each with separate salary structures, leave policies, and statutory applicability.

How does multi-branch payroll work?

Each branch runs payroll independently but feeds into consolidated HR reports for management. Employees can be transferred between branches with payroll continuity maintained.
