Auto-fill from employee profile data

Reports & dashboards

Repeatable management-reporting workflow
Export to Excel/PDF
Period comparisons where the underlying data supports them
Management summaries for review and further analysis

Ready reports lead into a genuine aggregate headcount chart — without employee-level data.

Why use a UAE-focused HR platform?

Global platforms can be strong general systems. ZaitoonHR focuses on the operational details UAE teams repeatedly need, with local implementation support and workflows configured around the employing entity.

General-purpose HR platforms

UAE-specific workflows may require additional configuration or partners
WPS preparation may sit outside the core workflow
Emiratisation often relies on separate tracking
End-of-service handling may require local configuration
Local implementation support may vary

Zaitoon HR

Configured UAE rules support HR review and calculation workflows
WPS SIF preparation sits inside the payroll workflow
Emiratisation tracking has a dedicated operational view
End-of-service estimates use configured rules and approved data
Implementation and support operate in Gulf Standard Time

Role-based access and accountable operations.

Access, responsibilities, and data-handling arrangements are agreed during implementation and tested before go-live.

ZaitoonHR-managed infrastructure; employee access does not require company email accounts
Role-based access for employees, managers, HR, administrators, and authorised specialist roles
Activity logging for controlled workflows, supported by implementation-time access testing
Backup, recovery, retention, and support procedures agreed as part of implementation

Pricing

ZaitoonHR uses a clear subscription and one-time implementation scope based on team size, selected workflows, and rollout requirements.
