For factories and plants

HR and payroll for the shop floor, not just the office

Punches come straight from your biometric machine. Plan rotating and night shifts, approve overtime and send it to payroll, and pay workers and staff in separate groups, with PF, ESI, PT and LWF worked out for everyone.

Free for up to 5 employees · 14-day trial, no card needed

What WeHR does for factories

  • Biometric machines

    Connect eSSL or ZKTeco machines so punches arrive as they happen, or import the machine’s Excel export.

  • Rosters and night shifts

    Set each person’s shift or weekly off for each day and copy a week forward. Night shifts that cross midnight count on the right day.

  • Overtime into payroll

    WeHR finds overtime from punches. A manager approves it, then it is added to the month’s pay at your rate, or given as comp-off.

  • Attendance without phones

    HR or a supervisor can mark attendance for a whole department at once, and record leave from the paper form.

  • Workers and staff, separately

    Pay groups (for example Staff and Workers) get their own bank files and registers, so different pay days stay apart.

  • PF, ESI, PT and LWF

    Worked out with every salary, including ESI continuing to the end of the contribution period after a raise. ECR and ESIC upload files are ready to upload.

  • Corrections with approval

    Missed punches are corrected through a request the manager approves, and the month is locked before payroll.

  • Self-service in the browser

    Workers who have a phone see payslips and leave in the browser or on WhatsApp, nothing to install.

How it works

  1. 1

    Connect the machine

    Attendance → Devices: add the machine by serial number, or import its Excel export.

  2. 2

    Plan the roster

    Shifts and weekly offs for each person, a week at a time.

  3. 3

    Approve overtime and corrections

    Supervisors approve; HR locks the month.

  4. 4

    Run payroll

    Attendance, overtime and LOP flow into pay; download bank files and statutory files.

What stays with you

  • Setting wages at or above the minimum wage that applies to your state and category | WeHR does not hold minimum-wage tables.
  • Factory registers and returns under the Factories Act and state rules beyond the PF, ESI, PT and LWF files WeHR prepares.
  • Uploading files on the government portals and paying the challans.

Questions

Which biometric machines work with WeHR?

eSSL and ZKTeco machines that can send punches over HTTPS connect directly. For any other machine, import its Excel export.

Can workers without smartphones use WeHR?

Yes. Attendance can come from the machine or be marked by HR, and leave can be recorded from a paper form.

Is overtime paid at double rate?

You choose the rate as a multiple of hourly pay in Overtime settings, and the minimum minutes before overtime counts.
